Charity Video Update

At Production Attic, we constantly look for ways that we can be active members of our community. One of the ways we have found we can do this is by producing a film for a charity once a year, free of charge. This year’s winner was a charities partnership between Harriot McDougall Books & NHS Children’s Hospital Charity. The film was made to be screened at a fundraising event, where the proceeds will be split between Great Ormond Street Hospital and the Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity. 

‘Having never done an interview before, Production Attic made the whole process easy and enjoyable. I was talked through every step of the journey and felt supported throughout. Their team are friendly, helpful and I would be happy to work with them again in the future. The video they created was fantastic and had the impact we were hoping for, getting Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity’s fundraising message across to a new audience. Thank you, Production Attic!

Many of our clients work with individuals who are shielding or have to be extra wary about distancing and contact. This provided an extra challenge when we were shooting our charity video this year. We were able to make a video we are really proud of by:

  • Sending detailed filming guidelines and also join them on a video call to assist and supervise
  • Posting participants the equipment they need including phone stands and professional microphones
  • Assisting in the recording on a video call in order to ensure the video quality and content is effective

Harriot McDougall Books have partnered with Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity (GCHC) and the NHS to raise vital funds for sick children in hospital. You can check out the website below:

‘I was delighted to win the Production Attic competition to have a video produced about my charity partnership. Throughout the process from start to finish the Production Attic team have been a pleasure to work with. They made the remote filming experience straightforward, providing professional equipment and offering support and guidance. I was very happy with the high quality of the finished video, especially considering that the interviews were shot on phones. The team captured my children’s books and the charitable causes in such a wonderful way. I have had nothing but positive feedback from everyone that has viewed the video. Thank you.’

Production Attic are delighted to support charities and we enjoyed producing a video for the Harriot McDougall Books and GCHC/NHS partnership. The NHS has been tested during this pandemic and we are proud to support and promote their message any way we can.
