#LondonPeachy FILM INDUSTRY PIONEER HAWK LONDON SECURES STUDIO SPACE AT EAST LONDON'S HERE EAST INNOVATION CAMPUS

Here East, the multi-award winning innovation campus created by clients of Delancey on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London, today welcomes Hawk London, a new entrant in the film and television industry.

This further establishes the East London campus as a thriving creative tech hub and builds on the development of this region as an epicentre of film and TV studio production.

Hawk is an industry leader in high-end cinematography. The company will establish their headquarters, studio and showroom at Here East to lease Hawk Lenses to the commercial film market in the UK.

Hawk London will be established as a full rental service company including cameras, lenses and grip equipment. This exciting addition to the Hawk and Vantage family means Hawk Anamorphic lenses and all other Hawk and Vantage products can be rented and serviced in the UK.

This highly localised creative digital cluster that has been cultivated on the campus will situate Hawk London amongst some of London's leading tech and creative businesses and academic institutions. Many of whom are developing the future talent pipeline into the industry.

Gavin Poole, CEO, Here East comments: "It is a pleasure to welcome Hawk London to our Here East campus and we are delighted the team have chosen us as the home for their UK headquarters. This is an exciting step for a film and TV industry trailblazer - and they will be sitting alongside world-class entrepreneurs, creatives and academics to share ideas, knowledge and expertise of this flourishing sector. As a new business venture in this ever-growing sector, the team will be fully supported in establishing their presence at Here East and beyond as they build out their facilities and launch their products. Hawk London will create valuable job opportunities for the local community in the film and TV sector – the very genesis of our campus."

Charles Heales, Founder/CEO of Hawk London said: "As a cinematographer working in the industry for the past decade I, like many, have often desired using Hawk lenses on many British projects. At such an exciting time for us, we're looking forward to bringing our business to the thriving community at Here East. It's exciting to be part of making Hawk and Vantage lenses accessible to fellow filmmakers by helping create the new and first home for Hawk in the UK. Hawk London is a fresh take on the traditional hire business model, giving our highly creative customers an environment to comfortably test and prep in a functional yet relaxing setting. Here East provides a brilliant setting for us to establish our pioneering position in the market."

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
