Dualit Vision Film
When work from Channel 4 eventually began to dry up in my mid 30s, I began talking to entrepreneurs and was struck by how long it took them to explain what it it was they did - so I could really get it.
An insightful man from an organisation called Businesslink told me to “go home and think of all the brands you would love to work with” and recommended I send them an email and just tell them what I felt - simple as that.
With that brilliant advice, we began our brand film company, H&Co.
It has always been about one thing really - unearthing the hidden stories within companies that have far greater power to influence people than the more traditional promo-style corporate video.
The story-gems are often buried deeply in people who say “You will never get me on camera “. Our job is to gently but persistently mine for those stories using a documentary technique- not one from the world of advertising.
This film for DUALIT was one of the first films we made at H&Co, but I think it embodies the spirit of what we always try and do. If they’ve got it in them we’ll bring it out!”
