Nest Productions’ co-founder is returning home to Glasgow, to head up a new Scottish office.
The company already has bases in Newcastle, Manchester and London and this fourth hub means it can cover almost the entirety of the UK.
“Setting up in my hometown of Glasgow is a momentous step for us and fills us with so much pride,” said Drennan.
“We are joining a dynamic ecosystem where production is thriving, and we are committed to supporting local talent and the sector. Scotland’s creative industry is brilliant and collaborative, and we are looking forward to making and developing content that resonates both locally and globally.”
Drennan is the former Head of Production at Lime Pictures and Wise Owl Films in Leeds and has worked on shows including Made in Chelsea, Celebs Go Dating, The World According To Grandpa and TOWIE. He co-founded Nest with Stew Batt (James May’s Toy Stories, Bafta Film Awards, Made in Chelsea, TOWIE) to work on a co-production model to support small and midsized indie production companies with infrastructure, talent, development and production expertise.
The Glasgow office will work across Scottish partnerships and co-productions.
Nest is working on its first original commission for Paramount+, Dating Naked UK, hosted by Rylan Clark. It will air later in 2024 on Paramount+ UK as well as MTV’s network of international channels and digital platforms, spanning over 150 Countries.
