The Lift is a team of production experts based in Mexico dedicated to empowering creativity.

In 2005 we decided to make Mexico the ultimate destination for the creative ecosystem. Our team has become a leader in commercials and film production services, and now has a base in both Mexico City and London. We work with international production companies, directors, producers, and writers to facilitate their most ambitious ideas and set a new standard for craft and creativity. In addition, The Lift has a film division for the development and production of shorts or features, a logistics unit within Production Services, and a talent agency Yanga.

About Us

Our Approach

Love for what we do and love for Mexico. We work with dedication and a close attention to detail, going the extra mile to ensure every project is a success. Covering the entire production process, from the birth of the idea through to the final shot, we find creative solutions to problems and work collaboratively to tell memorable stories and capture spectacular moving images.

Sustainability

The Lift is deeply committed to developing the best ESG practices in our industry, and our production services and other initiatives have reduced our carbon footprint by 26% in the past year. As Mexico’s largest independent audiovisual company, the company is an important contributor to employment and foreign investment in Mexico City, helping make the country a vibrant hub for film and advertising production. Furthermore, the company contributes to numerous charities and NGOs including Fireflies, BGFS, Museo de Bellas Artes, Fundación Kaluz and Hectágono, often with the aim of promoting Mexican creativity. The company is fully committed to diverse and equal opportunities alongside a firmly meritocratic workplace.

Our Ethos

Mexico is a centre for culture and creativity, and we’ve created the path for it to be a leading global production destination. Here, we raise the unusual, the unseen and the overlooked into the mainstream, searching for powerful and varied narratives that encourage us to look inwards and understand ourselves and others. Collaborating with like-minded innovative leaders from all over the world, this sharing of knowledge and experience means we are constantly seeking improvement in our own approaches.
