Meet the Team

Dennis Dean

Managing Director

Dennis is the mastermind behind Menace Media (yes, Dennis the Menace!). While you might still catch him behind the camera or directing the occasional shoot, his real focus these days is on building Menace Media into the UK’s top video production company. A cinematographer at heart, Dennis’s passion for crafting cinematic visuals is as strong as ever, but now he’s all about leading his team to create cinematic magic on a bigger scale. Outside of work, Dennis is still a big kid at heart, with a passion for gaming, cars, skating, and, of course, films.

Hannah Deegan

Marketing Executive

Hannah is our Marketing Wizard, casting spells over our social media campaigns, newsletters, and everything in between! She makes sure the content we create is spot-on for each platform and is always ahead of the curve with the latest trends. When she’s not sprinkling her marketing magic, you’ll find Hannah getting crafty with watercolors, drawing, cooking, and her latest obsession—pottery. Anything DIY is right up her alley! She also loves climbing mountains and going for long walks, especially if there’s a cozy pub or café at the end.
