The team’s technical expertise and storytelling skill created cohesive narratives from some challenging material. The resultant films are well-crafted, beautifully shot and moving, perfectly realising our creative vision and delivering a product beyond our expectations.

“An elegant and beautifully shot film. It is personal and inspirational; well produced and entrancing to watch.”

“Working with Forward has been an incredible experience. Tom was able to assist on every aspect of the project whilst respecting and understanding our vision and aim of the video. We experienced some hurdles along the way preparing for the filming but he assisted where he could coming up with new ideas to still be able to create an interesting and engaging film by the end. He understood the tone we wanted to set and all the messages we wanted to communicate. And because of this, the editing process went smoothly and we were almost immediately pleased with the end result. He was hard working on the day, working around constraints, checking in with me if I was happy with the content he was recording. I really felt he wanted the project to succeed as much as we did and worked extra to make that happen.
The end result is better than I could have expected. Thank you very much Forward, it’s been a real pleasure working with you!”

Choosing a supplier to create video content that would represent the brand and bring our new ‘We Believe in Brave’ strapline to life, was an important decision. It wasn’t just a financial commitment, it was an emotional investment too, and no amount of interviewing and proposal-reading changed the fact that at some point, I just had to take a leap of faith.

But working with Forward has been a joy, beginning to end. The importance Tom puts on the collaborative scoping process during which he listens, inquires, and respectfully challenges, ensures the end result is exactly what you as the customer is looking for. On filming days his team worked efficiently, safely, and everyone was committed to striving for perfection (even when we’d run over time at the end of the day.) And the end result…. well, it’s wonderful; atmospheric, textured, well-paced, and better that I could have hoped.  I wholeheartedly recommend Tom, and his team at Forward, and already look forward to the next project.”

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.

“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.”
