We started working with Vanilla in the middle of 2007 when we wanted to re-cut our existing advertising to give it new life. I have to say that we were so pleased with the creative input, quality execution and fast turnaround that we decided to put our entire TV creative work for 2008 into their hands! It was a big responsibility for them and required a great amount of hard work on both our parts but the results have been fantastic. Who needs pricey west end agencies when such great creative work can come from a close collaboration directly with the producers and directors?
Marketing Director Warner Leisure Hotels
Hiring Vanilla is probably one of the best decisions we've made - they took our high level vision and converted it into a highly successful internal communication video - which was way beyond our expectations and exemplified our vision. The levels of professionalism, commitment, innovation and ingenuity were superb. Everyone who was filmed commented on how great they were and in particular the feedback from our CEO and a key customer highlighted the contribution of Ross Young. We'd have no hesitation in recommending Debra, Karen and the team to anyone, especially someone with a short window of opportunity to create an inspiring piece of comms to motivate their organisation.
UK Marketing Director Logica
Vanilla Films are fantastic – if you need a job doing and to budget, they’ll bring it home on time! We’ve already recommended Vanilla to other businesses within the Bourne Leisure Group and will always consider Vanilla as a superb long term resource! Advertising Manager Butlins
From taking the brief through to delivering the final product, Vanilla Films demonstrated an attention to detail and efficiency that is second to none. Better still, their creative approach and willingness to provide professional advice has resulted in an end-product that does more than originally intended. It's refreshing to find an organisation determined and honest enough to provide the best possible service.
Press and PR Manager The Chartered Management Institute
Debra and Karen –with director John Maidens –created a wonderful set of films that will be invaluable in supporting our aim of encouraging more disabled people to work in the film industry. The team also provided a highly practical learning environment for the disabled researcher that we asked them to appoint and secured the participation of a number of high profile contributors. Head of Diversity The UK Film Council
Vanilla Film Productions was a great company to work with, always very professional, friendly and responsive. They listened carefully to our brief and ensured that all of our key messages were incorporated into the film, coming up with creative filming ideas and solutions. The training film they produced for us has hit the mark; we’re using it as part of an employee engagement process to enhance our focus on guest satisfaction and so far the response we’ve had is excellent; our employees really seem to get the message and it’s so much more powerful when they can see through the film the impact they have in the workplace. We intend to work with Vanilla Films on future projects and would definitely recommend them to others.
Human Resources Manager LEGOLAND
Friendly, helpful and really great customer service. I would highly recommend Vanilla for their attention to detail and professionalism. All in all a pleasure to work with.
Assistant Product Manager, Gardens – Scotts Miracle Gro
Vanilla Films produced a beautifully shot film focusing on specific aspects of the Trust's work that was shown at our key fundraising event of the year.
From the start of the film making process, it was clear that Vanilla would do all they could to ensure we had the precise film we wanted - appropriate for our audience. The film making process was undertaken in a professional manner with communication from both sides encouraged at all times. We were delighted with the end result.
It has been a pleasure to work with the team at Vanilla Film Productions and I have no hesitation in recommending them to you.
Chief Executive Holocaust Educational Trust
Working with Karen, Debra and John at Vanilla films on the production and filming of our charity DVD was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. It’s a big investment for a small charity and Vanilla Films’ professional, creative and friendly approach made the whole process extremely easy. The result is an incredibly powerful DVD which melts the hardest of hearts and raises BLISS’s fundraising and awareness potential whenever used.
I would recommend Vanilla films without hesitation.
Corporate Projects Manager BLISS
Vanilla Films produced our first ever appeal film for our 10th Anniversary Gala Dinner, which raised more than double our expectations. Myeloma UK offers a broad range of services and the audience at the Gala Dinner were mostly unaware of the complexity of the disease and of the work of Myeloma UK. Vanilla Films covered all aspects of our charity, managing to engage, inform and move our audience throughout. Not only are their team professional, organised and extremely thorough, they also understand that the key to producing a successful film is working closely with the client all the way through the process.
