A love letter to London in one special video.

The London Museum closes its doors

The London Museum is moving to a new location, and it means a goodbye to the museum as we know it. It will reopen under the name London Museum in Smithfield Market in 2026. 

Chocolate Films was commissioned by The London Museum to create a nostalgic video that would cherish the city and thank Londoners for their support over the years. The video is based on a beautiful poem by Courtney Conrad, who also stars and reads the poem out loud in the video. 

The video was well-received and mentioned in Evening Standard with Josh Salisbury calling it a ‘love letter’ to London. 

A poetic film about magical London

Our team wrote the script based on the poem, and the video follows the poem very closely. It takes the audience back to the past and the city’s long history and how the city has been evolving with clips to the future. It’s set in a playful tone and the aim was to capture all of the elements that make London special and loved by many. 

We created the videos in different shapes and sizes to make them accessible and suitable for The Museum of London’s social media platforms.

Chocolate Films' own love letter to London

Years ago, we started a Chocolate Films project, where we wanted to offer people an insight into the lives of Londoners. The project is called 1000 Londoners, and the goal is to create 1000 short documentaries.  

The videos feature people of all ages, religions, interests, races, and incomes. It doesn’t matter whether you are born in London or recently moved to the city. The only thing that matters is that you live here. 

The content showcases London’s culture and its many facets.

Chocolate Films did outstanding work on the Seido Karate London promo. They were able to capture the spirit of the Dojo with their visuals and presentation. The interviews were professional and conducted expertly. Overall outstanding work!

I work for the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families and we commissioned Chocolate films to make 3 films to support the training of mental health workers.The Chocolate films team have been highly professional, skilled and excellent to work alongside. Right from the beginning where we met to share our plans and discuss the potential project, the team have offered creative thinking, ideas and helped us to build a clear vision for the films. The script process felt easy and collaborative. The team have also provided a very clear structure and reliability around time scales.As the film making process began we worked closely around the development of scripts and casting of actors. Chocolate films have been very responsive and active in supporting us (at the Anna Freud centre) to work to the deadlines whilst showing a really high level of knowledge around the process and steps needed.The actual filming days were a pleasure to be involved with and the team has been very impressive to see in action, particularly in their ability to work together, to include me in their process whilst also attending very carefully to the details needed for the films to be high quality.I would highly recommend Chocolate films and would certainly commission them again

Rachel and Lucia worked with our vision and helped turn it into a reality, offering suggestions and expertise to help bring the story to life to a highly creative and timely manner.The video created a real buzz within the organisation and the feedback received has been fantastic. I would highly recommend Chocolate and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Make Listening Safe Campaign UK is an initiative of The World Health Organisation aimed at increasing the awareness of avoidable risks to hearing in those between 10 and 40 years of age, launched at an in person event in London on 1st November 2023.We needed the launch to be filmed and were lucky enough to be introduced to Chocolate Films who provided the crew and the equipment required.Our events team have informed me that the crew were a delight to work with and were very helpful.We were very impressed with the quality of the footage and were very surprised when we received it so quickly after the event, so we could edit it and get it out on to social media in a timely fashion.We have no hesitation in recommending Chocolate Films.Thank you for making the filming such a pain free experience.Stephen Wheatley | Chair – MLSC UK |

A friendly group of professional, talented film-makers who created some brilliant videos for us.

A very professional team with flexibility and great understanding of the craft. The pre-production was straight forward but the dedication from the team on the day to capture lots of high quality footage of the event was admirable.The final outcomes were well edited and the revisions process was painless and fast. I highly recommend Chocolate Films for event and interview videography.
