From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated as Something Inc Limited (“the Company”) on 17 June 2015. The Company was founded by Andrew Bernard Hewitt and Nicholas Peter Hoskin, who remained its directors throughout. Daniel James Pickard, who had built the production agency Shuffle, became involved with the Company through its acquisition of Shuffle in April 2018, was appointed a director on 1 January 2021 and resigned on 6 January 2024.
The Company began trading in 2016, positioned between brands and culture on the founders’ view that a growing share of consumer attention sat outside traditional advertising. It combined strategy, creative, production and distribution in a single business, competing with independent creative and production companies and with the creative arms of the large agency networks.
The Company traded as Something, an independent creative and production studio serving commercial brands, government and purpose led organisations across strategy, creative, content and film production, and experiential work. Delivery ran through a core permanent team supported by freelance specialists. Alongside client work the Company developed its own entertainment and documentary formats for licensing. The Company was a Certified B Corporation.
