Loose Goose Productions is a production company based in London.
The company was founded by Asa Gartland and Greg Hackel-Johnson, two filmmakers who met at The London Film School and bonded over a shared love of bold ideas, offbeat humour, and not taking themselves too seriously.
Our approach is built on high standards and fuelled by a sense of fun that keeps the creative spark alive. We make films that live between genres: playfully subversive stories that embrace both the absurdity and tenderness of life. In an age of noise and spectacle, we see humour as the perfect Trojan horse for deeper, more impactful ideas.
Whether it’s a short, a feature, or a commercial, we’re drawn to projects with a pulse. Work that surprises us, makes us laugh in unexpected places or leaves us feeling seen and exposed. If it’s got style, character, and something honest at its core, we’re in.
