Filmmaking
Turning everyday moments into mini blockbusters (without the Hollywood budget).
We are dreamers, adventurers, and storytellers
At Miya Films, we tell stories that matter. From weddings and documentaries to interviews, narratives, corporate films, and live events, we capture moments with style and purpose.
Our films are more than recordings — they’re experiences, crafted to move, inspire, and last a lifetime.
hello
My name is Penn Tangu,
Cinematographer & editor
I found my way into filmmaking through a love of storytelling and the thrill of capturing life as it happens. What started as experimenting with a camera soon grew into a passion for turning real moments into cinematic experiences — whether it’s a wedding, a documentary, or a live event. There’s something magical about preserving emotions in motion, creating memories people can return to again and again.
The name Miya Films is deeply personal — it’s named after my daughter, a reminder that every story I capture should be as precious and timeless as the memories we hold closest.
I’m inspired by both the craft of cinema and the uniqueness of every story I tell. My aim is always to go beyond “just filming” — to create films that feel alive, meaningful, and timeless.
When I’m not behind the camera or deep in an edit, you’ll probably find me with family, or over a good film, or exploring somewhere new with my camera in hand.
My Approach
Every project is different, and that’s what excites me. I believe in working closely with people to understand their story and then crafting films that feel personal, fun, and authentic. I take on a limited number of projects each year to give each one the care and creativity it deserves.
My goal? To capture the energy, emotion, and essence of the moment — so that when you watch it back, you don’t just see it, you feel it all over again.
FAQ
Where are you based?
I’m based in Manchester, UK, but my camera and I love to travel. No matter where your story is, I’m happy to come to you.
What is your approach to video shooting?
I like to keep things natural, fun, and story-driven. My goal is to blend into the moment, capturing genuine emotions and details without forcing them, then shaping it all into a film that feels authentic and timeless.
For weddings, what packages do you offer?
I offer a range of wedding film packages designed to suit different needs, from simple highlight reels to full-day cinematic storytelling. Each package can be tailored with extras like drone coverage, additional shooters, or same-day edits.
What are the lengths of your films?
Highlight films typically run between 5–7 minutes, perfect for sharing with friends and family. Full feature films can range from 20–40 minutes, giving you a deeper, more detailed story of your day. Every package includes a short teaser (around 1 minute) to relive the magic instantly.
Could we see a preview and make changes before we get the final video?
Yes, absolutely! Once your film is edited, I’ll share a private preview link with you. You’ll have the chance to review it and request a round of adjustments, so the final film feels just right.
How do we get in touch?
You can reach me anytime through the contact form on my website, by email, or via social media. I’d love to hear about your plans and chat about how we can bring your story to life.
Do you also offer a photography service?
I focus solely on filmmaking, but I work closely with some amazing photographers. If you’re looking for one, I’d be happy to connect you with trusted professionals I regularly collaborate with.
