“They came highly recommended but I was absolutely blown away by the sheer quality of what they produced. I was fortunate enough to be able to observe the process directly because I was on board the ship during the 5 days of filming. So, I witnessed first hand the empathy, the intelligence and the interpersonal skill of the directing. I was also involved in the evolution of the project during post production and saw that raw material lifted to an even greater height through very clever editing and a beautifully composed music score, recorded in Abbey Road Studios. The project grew and grew but in a way that reinforced the authenticity of it. Every occasion I spend time with Daniel, Chris and Chris, I get more of an appreciation of just what went into the film; the craft and skill that makes it so impactful. I have huge admiration for the way they conducted themselves, at every stage of the process and I am grateful to each of them. The end result was a film which had a significant impact on a diverse audience. It was made available to tens of thousands of our colleagues and the feedback was unbelievable. It served to raise the profile of our work in a truly unique way, massively increasing awareness and buy-in to our core message and ultimately led to raising in excess of a quarter of a million pounds which has made a tangible difference to the lives of individuals who need and deserve our support. Our project was recognised with a number of external awards but it is the film itself that people still talk about. It has very much set the standard for any future commissions.”
