Xanadu Productions specialises in unparalleled access to China. It is the only Production Company in the UK with this specific remit.

Recognising the emergence of China as such an important future world influence as far back as 1996 Xanadu has uniquely positioned itself with a huge range of experience and contacts.

Xanadu has produced some of the best programming on China in the UK to date. Both Directors of the Company, Stephen Hallett and Maggie Still, have lived and worked in China.

Xanadu’s broadcast programming is primarily in documentary current affairs, but the company has worked in conjunction with other specialist production companies in the genres of arts, history and wildlife.

Along with broadcast programming Xanadu has a Corporate Department, headed up by Roger Hurrell, drawing on experienced and award winning Directors with strong track records in the Corporate world.

Networking with tried and tested Chinese colleagues Xanadu can showcase your business effectively in China. We understand the concept of “guanxi” (business relationships) and the other guiding principles of building trust with Chinese colleagues. Making programmes, for either broadcast or corporate, requires a depth of cultural knowledge about China that currently only Xanadu can deliver.

Xanadu also holds an archive of historical and contemporary library material and can undertake specialist archive research in China if required.
