Our Clients We’ve told the stories of many brands both large & small
Gideon Graylyons Creative Director, Affinity

“Working with Forward on the St John’s House film was a real pleasure due to their obvious skill and passion for film making, their boundless enthusiasm, professionalism and in this case in particular, a real talent for thinking on their feet and reacting to unforeseen situations to produce fantastic results.”

“Forward were brilliant to work with. Passionate and fun, they made the experience very enjoyable and the final film is an outstanding piece of work. The clients reaction when they watched it for the first time was fantastic to see!”

Mark Smith Lead Talent Attraction Consultant – Severn Trent

“Working with Forward was great, they were able to go through the options I had available and make important recommendations for what I could achieve with the resources and budget available. Collaboration was key to the success of our short films and I couldn’t be more happy with the final results.”

Emily Keates Deputy Service Manager, NHS Wellbeing

“We had no experience of producing films and we were keen to create a high quality, engaging film which would support people to access our service. We had no idea just how involved film making is and so having you to guide us through has been invaluable. You have guided us through the process and interpreted what we were looking for. Thank you also for being available when we need to ask questions and supporting us through the process. You have been both energetic and patient!

We could not be more happy with the end result, to have the three separate films plus the one final combined film which meets our brief completely. We hope that we can work with you again in the future!”

David Carter Product Manager, Ampersand

We worked with Tom and his team on our educational videos and brought in outside experts to be filmed over the course of a few days filming. I can wholeheartedly state that the entire process was handled with a focused and clear, professional approach which has produced some fantastic results. We are very happy with the produced videos and the process of tendering, briefing, planning, shooting and editing was brilliant. We were internally looking to increase the quality of our produced video and set some fairly lofty heights of the styles and quality we were looking for. Overall we found Tom able to match those requirements really well and are very impressed with the end product. To top this process off we were filming during COVID restrictions and requested that Tom and his team follow as strict guidelines as possible to ensure all of our safety. Tom carried this out fantastically and ourselves and the experts (medical professionals) felt safe and secure. All in all I would highly recommend Tom and his team for filming projects.

“We couldn’t be happier with the production process and the end product from Forward. Tom Martin, the Creative Director, worked closely with us from the initial concept discussions right through storyboarding, shooting and post production. He gave excellent creative suggestions while also listening to our priorities and aims. Attention to detail and quality were exemplary and yet it all came in on time and within the budget agreed at the outset. We’re delighted with the result and we’d jump at the chance to work with Forward again.”

Catherine Ashby NHS Wellbeing Team Leader West Norfolk

We have had some wonderful feedback about our perinatal film, commenting on how touching it is and how cleverly it balanced the many areas that we wanted to get across in a brief film. Without the creative experience of Tom, I am sure we would not have achieved such a lovely film. The overwhelming reaction has been tears, which I think demonstrates how well the film ‘talks’ to people. Thank you so much for all you hard work and patience.
