Little Known is a full-service creative studio producing emotionally resonant work across film, photography, and branded storytelling.
Founded by Brit Phelan, a director and photographer known for her commercial work with brands like Nike, UGG, White Claw, and Scotts — the studio operates as both a full-service production company and her creative home. Here, personal meets professional.
Little Known develops, produces, and edits Brit’s original narrative films and series (Something Happened, Finding Dad, Looking for Love, and more), while also collaborating with brands, agencies, and artists to tell stories that are grounded, cinematic, and deeply human.
Whether directing a large-scale commercial campaign or crafting an intimate indie film, Little Known creates work that resonates — stories that feel lived-in, authentic, and emotionally true.
Let’s create something meaningful together.
