Be stray, curious, brave, different, restless, nosy, fearless, creative, stubborn, loyal, sceptical, untamed, playful, unscripted, dogged, first. Be Laika’s.

A documentary and communication studio for the space sector. We film missions and the people behind them, help them say what they do, and train them to tell it.

Services

Audiovisual production. Documentaries and short-form films about missions, companies and the people behind them. Shot on location, with every scientific claim checked with your experts.
Communication and consulting. Strategic communication for space organisations. We define what to say, to whom and how, and turn technical work into a clear, credible message.
Design. Visual identity, presentations and information design that make complex programmes legible at a glance. These mission patches are our own work.
Workshops. Public speaking and presentation training for engineers and scientists, built around the talks, pitches and reviews they actually have to deliver.
Outreach and events. Science talks, panel moderation and public events for institutions, schools and conferences, designed to bring space within reach of any audience.
Media training. Spokesperson preparation for interviews, press conferences and work on camera, with filmed rehearsals reviewed together.
