Cygnet Films Entertainment is an independent film and media production company creating bold new content across film, tv, web, and online.

We pride ourselves in our collaborative approach to film making, and value fairness, integrity, diversity and broad representation in our work. Our passion is telling thought-provoking and unique new stories.

Cygnet Films Entertainment was created by multi-talented film maker Mathias Swann shortly after graduating with an MA in Screen Acting from Drama Centre London. With years of experience working on both sides of the camera in a variety of roles, Mat ventured into creating his own work - beginning in 2020 with his first micro-short, Christmas Card From Me To You.

In 2021 Mat brought Kara Chamberlain on board - after nearly a decade of experience creating fringe theatre Kara was keen to cut her teeth as a film maker. Together, they produced (and starred in) the multi-award-winning web series Retail is Hell. They put together a strong team who have come to form their core crew.

Most recently, Mat and Kara co-produced their first short film, Raw Chemistry, which is currently on the festival circuit.
