Founded in 2016, StudioPOW produces television, documentary and feature film and content. The company is based in Soho, London and was founded by producer Kevin Proctor and executive producer Perry Trevers.

It's first film, Funny Cow, starring Maxine Peake and Stephen Graham was released on April 20, 2018 and garnered great critical acclaim with four star reviews from The Guardian, Empire, The Evening Standard, The Financial Times, The Independent and with The Times and The Daily Star awarding a full five stars. BFI magazine Sight and Sound listed Funny Cow as their Film Of The Week. Mark Kermode also made it his Film Of The Week for the April 2018 theatrical release and reviewed it again for the August 2018 DVD release Noting the division in critics' perception of the film and central character, Kermode emphasised that "its heart is absolutely in the right place but I think that is because it is not ashamed to depict the world it is actually representing". The film garnered two BIFA nominations in 2018: Best Actress for Maxine Peake and Best Music for Richard Hawley.

In 2019, they made Adrian Shergold's second feature with the studio, Cordelia. Cordelia stars Antonia Campbell-Hughes as Cordelia, a once promising actress who's emotional state and outlook on life is changed after a traumatic event. The film also stars Johnny Flynn, Sir Michael Gambon and Joel Fry. Prior to its release Cordelia went viral on social media for its poster design which "film fans have gone wild over" with 14,000 retweets and more than 93,000 likes in just 24 hours.

That same year, Studio POW made The Bookshop, a short film about a tender and introverted bookshop owner. Directed by Susan Lynch, the film had its premier on the 9th of December 2019 at The Curzon in Soho and has since earned many awards including Best Original Story, Best Cinematography and Best Director at the Florence Film Festival.

In 2022, the studio announced it is in production on three films including A Brush With Comedy, The Glove and Midas Man.
