The next job…
July 14, 2010
Every so often, a phone call or e-mail comes through to us with a film brief that’s a little unusual. We’ve filmed in Italy, Spain, Germany, Holland, America and many other exciting destinations, and have always come back, not only with the footage, but with a new understanding of differing cultures and people. Today, however, we had only to travel 10 miles from our location to film a ’special needs’ school, and, in the process, we were humbled both by the professionalism of the staff and the effort made by the pupils towards what we take for granted, an education. We have been working on a film for the education sector over the last few weeks, and this was the final day’s shoot. Today made us realise that we are very lucky in this country to have such places. We only hope the film will do justice to such intitiatives. With some fantastic interviews and vox-pops from the teachers and pupils, we’ll certainly do our best in the edit!
Guilty or not guilty!

This was probably the most interesting Health and Safety film I’ve ever worked on. The brief was, to produce a TV ‘drama type’ programme that could be used in a ‘mock trial’ complete with a Judge,to decide who was at fault. The film showed events leading up to a serious incident on a building site, and was subsequently shown at The Liberty Stadium, Swansea, to an audience of several hundred delegates, who then had to vote in a Court Room scenario on whom they believed was at fault. So effective was the programme, that we were asked afterwards if it could be used at a leading UK firm of solicitors to help them train their people in such court case events!
NFU Open Farm Sunday
June 19, 2010
Well, we spent a most enjoyable Sunday afternoon in Worcestershire on June 13th, filming for the NFU. The brief was, to produce a short film, around 5 minutes, to be put up on YouTube and NFUtube by the following Wednesday. The feedback has been very good, and you can see the film here:

Things have been really hectic here for the last few months, so updates have taken a back seat.With several films currently in production, we’ve noticed a definite upturn in commercial confidence since last year. Films recently completed include a film for the agricultural industry on poultry production. We came away from one location in Herefordshire with a dozen freshly laid free-range eggs…. delicious!
