Culture at weareseventeen - 3D Motion Design & Production Agency in London
What does it mean to be seventeen?
When you're 17, anything is possible. If (like us) you're one of the lucky ones, the world is full of promise. We might not be teens anymore, but we'd never claim to be fully matured - we still have lots to learn, a desire to do so, and a restless nature that makes every day an enticing prospect.
It's this spirit that ensures we take nothing for granted, meet every creative challenge with an open mind, every production challenge with an optimistic outlook, and answer every “why” with a “why not?”.
Meet the team
We are continually humbled by the stellar people who have chosen to make weareseventeen part of their working lives.

Our ethos of ‘championing decency’ is woven into how we operate day to day, the decisions we make as a team, how we support each other, and how we work with our clients.
We believe that the working day should be an enabler of people living fulfilling personal lives.
Our 4.5 day work-week is a practical example of this, as well as a clear code that business and project expectations are always managed to ensure the team are never required to work outside office hours.
We are committed to doing our bit to help make the creative sector more accessible to young people from diverse backgrounds via mentoring programs, work-experience, (properly) paid internships, and partnering with incredible organisations like Creative Lives In Progress.
We believe that we can deliver great creative work that captivates and moves, without compromising our humanity and values. The work we do matters, but how we do it matters just as much.
-
Being Human
It’s pretty simple really - at the end of the day, we’re all just people doing our best. We’ve all worked in places or on projects where this basic principle gets forgotten, and it’s up to us to remember just how important it is to show respect, empathy, appreciation, kindness and decency to everyone we work with - no matter what the business demands or challenges are. -
Openness
Our best work happens when we are open-minded - open to fresh ideas and perspectives, to opinions and change. It encourages positive conversation and is an essential building block for honest relationships - we believe it makes everyone’s lives better. -
Curiosity
A little curiosity can go a long way - a lot of curiosity goes even further. We encourage digging deeper and really listening, reading between the lines, asking questions and genuinely caring about the answers, and seeing where conversations and opportunities take us. -
Quality
We believe that we *should* sweat the small stuff - It's important to strive for the highest standards in the little things, as well as the big things. Quality runs throughout our work, our process, our approach to everything - from our creative and technical output to our cups of tea. -
Optimism
We don’t get anywhere or achieve anything without an optimistic mindset. It’s the foundation for trying new things, making new connections, and overcoming challenges. Optimism drives us to aim high and have the confidence to start something ambitious. We owe it to our clients to bring this attitude to all of our projects, every single day - they put their trust in us, and it’s the least we can do in return. -
Pride
Less of a value and more of an ambition... we strive to make our clients proud of the work we create together, and to make our team proud of everything we achieve.
If this sounds like the kind of company you’d like to be a part, of or if you’d like to work with us, we’d love to hear from you.
