JonesMillbank & Nine Tree Studios rebrand as BLANKET™ FILMS + STUDIOS

2nd May 2026

Creative production company JonesMillbank and film studio Nine Tree Studios have rebranded as BLANKET™, bringing their offerings together under a single, unified identity.

The rebrand marks a significant milestone for the Bristol-based agency as it enters its 15th year, reflecting both their evolution and a growing demand for integrated production, studio, and equipment rental services.

“We found that studio clients didn’t realise we offered production or kit rental, and many of our production prospects didn’t know we had a studio,” said Russell Jones, Founder & EP. “The separation no longer made sense – it was time to bring everything together along with a complete refresh.”

The new brand, BLANKET™, reflects the agency’s holistic offering across film production, studio hire, and equipment rental, while positioning the agency more clearly within the wider creative and production landscape.

“We wanted something confident, distinctive, and easy to engage with,” said Rob French, Creative Director. “BLANKET is human, tactile and approachable, but also strong and flexible – something that reflects how we’ve always worked and where we’re going.”

The rebrand also signals a shift in how the agency operates. As projects have grown in scale, BLANKET™ has increasingly collaborated with freelance specialists and production partners, including supporting international production companies filming in the UK.

“Collaboration is already a much bigger part of our creative process,” said Adam Millbank, Founder & EP. “Whether it’s larger productions or studio dry hire, we’re working with a wider network of talented crew – from camera operators and gaffers to HMU, catering and runners. That’s only going to increase with the new brand and as the studio continues to become more established.”

BLANKET™ will continue to operate from its Bristol studio, serving clients across the UK and Europe, with a focus on commercial film production and studio-based work.
