Project Reviews

Film for city investors and staff explaining the rationale of Scott Wilson's acquisition of architectural consultants CameronTaylor. It's a great story to tell, and we took a documentary approach to bring the story to life. The result is a fascinating insight into the world of architecture and global civil engineering, and what makes it tick. The feedback was better than we could have hoped, as there was a lot of fear and uncertainty in both companies right across the globe until they saw the final pice of film. One of many films commissioned by Scott Wilson.

“The work Rostand Films did to help launch our Flexible Benefits Programme received unanimous praise and has contributed to the extremely high level of engagement our workforce have in the value of their benefit package. Throughout the process, Freddie and his team put all the ‘amateur’ presenters at their ease and their skilful editing and production made our little film feel like a big production. We have used Rostand films to kick start a number of our communication efforts and would highly recommend that anyone with a big communication challenge consider this medium, and Rostand Productions, as their guide through the process.”

The client came back to us after two months to say he was worried we'd undercharged him - they'd made their money back within eight weeks, such was the success of the film. A concise and clear exposition of what, frankly, was a very difficult and visually challenging subject - leaflets in doctors' surgeries! We relish these kinds of challenges and produced something that continues to provide significant returns for the client.

I hope Freddie's not too cross with us! We've made so much money out of the film he made us that I hope he doesn't feel he undercharged us! It was a difficult subject to make visually interesting but he succeeded in making a film that was easy to watch and very informative. The film helps our sales staff explain to customers how much work goes into the product and service we have created. And as a result, we have dramatically increased our profit by avoiding having to give discount to get the sale. When customers ask for money off now, our sales teams now feel confidant to ask them which 10% of the product they think we should cut out to pay for their 10% discount! So turnover and profits are up and Freddie has saved me thousands of pounds!

Every man should see this. The film was commissioned by the Brachytherapy Advisory Trust to promote brachytherapy as a treatment for prostate cancer. Very few know about it, although it's been around for twenty-five years. If you catch prostate cancer early enough, you won't need to have your prostate removed and all the horrendous things that come with it. Brachytherapy involves small radioactive pellets, is an outpatient procedure, and you'll be home in the afternoon. These personal stories are illuminating. And the treatment is available on the NHS.

Brachytherapy for prostate cancer

"We commissioned Rostand productions to produce a patient information film on prostate cancer and its impact on sexual function. They had a difficult task to take a profoundly sensitive and personal subject and incorporate the opinion of patients and their partners into a short but extremely informative film  The result created a balance illustrating a technically accurate video of a prostate brachytherapy procedure in an operating theatre, interviews with consultant specialists but more importantly candid interviews with the patients and their partners within the privacy of their own home. Rostand Productions were professional from beginning to end, particularly with the patients and their partners they demonstrated great sensitivity and understanding throughout.
We reccommend that all our patients to view the film to reassure themselves that sexual function can be maintained despite the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer and we have received a very positive response. I can recommend them very highly indeed. They were an absolute pleasure to work with."
