Co-produced campaign film

Redthread is a fantastic charity that supports young people who are victims of violence. Chocolate Films worked with Redthread to produce a short film to explain the service to new service users.
It was essential for the film to connect with vulnerable young people, so, as well as working with the charity itself, we ran a series of development workshops with its youth groups at several points in the film’s production. The young people advised on look, characterisation, messaging and script and even recorded the voiceovers themselves.

Using animation to raise awareness of social issues

Chocolate films works extensively with charities and youth organisations, often co-producing animation with service users. Recent work includes films that look at mental health for young people, an animation produced with young people in a young offenders institute, and films to campaign against human trafficking in sport. If you’d like to talk to us about your animation, just get in touch.

Culture Croydon has had a great experience working with Chocolate Films creating social-first reels and highlights films for our events. The team have been excellent at turning around the content quickly to meet our tight deadlines, and perfectly executing the films to meet the brief.
We worked with Chocolate Films on our rebrand videos and couldn’t be happier with the results. The team was knowledgeable, supportive, and a real pleasure to work with throughout the process. They did an excellent job using video and animation to bring our new brand to life, capturing exactly what we wanted to convey. I’d definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a creative and reliable video partner.

Chocolate Films helped us with the films for our 10-Year Strategy
and annual Awards. Mary, Lucia and the team did a fantastic job at capturing the look, feel and emotions tied to the events and we were really pleased at how they turned out. They held a number of briefing calls and kept us updated of their progress throughout! Looking forward to working with the team again!

ActionSpace had a great experience working with Chocolate Films, in renting their fantastic studio space for an event and in hiring their excellent camera team for a live stream broadcast. They were welcoming, inclusive, highly professional and sensitive to the needs of our artists. We very much hope to work with them again.

Chocolate films made a film for our small charity and the quality of the product was excellent. They really managed to capture the essence of what we do and that is so valuable to us in recruiting new members and attracting funding. Very easy feedback and amendment process too. Would recommend

Chocolate Films workshops are absolutely amazing for my child! The team is so friendly and does a great job of keeping the kids engaged. My child loves learning about filmmaking and always comes home excited to share all the cool things they’ve done that day.
The workshops are really hands-on and encourage so much creativity, which is fantastic to see. My child feels so proud of what they’re creating, and the films they work on always turn out brilliant.

If you’re looking for a fun and creative activity for your kids, I can’t recommend their workshops enough.

Any artist or creative who has not wrapped their head around creating unique visual imagery needs to invest some time, effort and energy on this powerful medium which is now taking priority over a business card or website. Even a short workshop like those on offer at Chocolate Films will set you off in the right direction.

My children attended their film making workshops. What a great time they had! The crew members were fantastic, especially Bea, who has got excellent attitude towards children and tons of patience. I really recommend them, if you are looking for some quality workshops for your children.
