ELP Films

Creating compelling narratives in film

Part of the East Leeds Project, ELP Films make documentary and promotional films for charities, trusts, not for profit organisations and the cultural sector by developing compelling narratives to engage with stakeholders and audiences. ELP Films is led by producer and award-winning screenwriter Paul Harker.

Last year we completed a short film which was aired on the Sky Arts channel, in partnership with Arts Council England, LEEDS 2023, The Space and Studio 12. Sky Arts commissioned five of the brightest creative talents in Leeds to create a new series of short films for the city’s Year of Culture addressing the question ‘What’s worth fighting for?’ Find out more

Our commissioned film, Moon Palace – A Stargazer’s Journey, was shot on location in East Leeds in August. It has currently won four awards and will complete its competition run at the end of 2024.
