“We worked with Mile 91 to produce films for Refugee Week. They bring a wonderful balance of efficiency and professionalism, with warmth and sensitivity to their work. Their communication from start to finish was excellent as they walked us, and our church communities, through the film making process. We are delighted with the resulting films.”
Pattie Gercke
Compassionate Communities Development Worker: Refugee & Homeless
“Thank you Mile 91 for the recent smartphone filming course – it was honestly the most useful and fun workshop I’ve ever been to. I really enjoyed putting what we learnt in the morning in to practice, and felt a huge sense of achievement showing my short video at the end of the day. We all left feeling so excited and motivated to make some great videos for Marie Curie!”
Vicky Larkin
Social Media Manager
“I am so pleased we chose Mile 91. Planning before the shoot was really helpful – exploring our objectives for the day, discussing our location and how the day should run to ensure we got the most from the shoot. Ben was excellent. He was brilliant at making people feel at ease. We didn’t feel rushed and yet managed to get a huge range of images. Our photos are natural, warm and really reflect our work.”
Jenn Hall
Head of Fundraising
“It feels very special working with Mile 91. From the outset, it felt like an extension of the team. I haven’t worked with another agency who feel this engaged, warm and personable. I don’t think anyone matches their expertise or their culture of storytelling. We’ve shifted into a space at Mind where storytelling is front and centre of what we do – and engagement with our content, donations and campaign sign-ups have increased because of it. Mile 91 have been instrumental in this.”
Phil Marley
Voices Manager
“We loved working with everyone Mile 91. They are so professional and skilled but equally very friendly, funny and easy to get along with. We’ve never taken on such a big storytelling project before and in some ways were really out of our depth but they made the process much more manageable!”
Emma Tucker
Marketing and Communications Manager
“I've commissioned Catherine and Ben to create purpose-driven films on three separate occasions and have enormous trust that they 'just get it'. With a well-scoped brief, they've worked as an extension to my team to create high quality films that tick all the boxes. Their expertise in storytelling is second to none and they're both a pleasure to work with. All credit to them - they've smashed it every time!”
