Testimonial
CineFocus has done a stellar job of understanding our needs and interpreting them for us in the videos they produce. Without exception, big or small, all of these productions have been delivered on budget, to the highest professional standard; and most importantly, with impact, depth and sincerity that resonate and reflect the goals and needs of our intended audiences.
Over the past 15 years CineFocus Canada has been a creative frontrunner in the creation of many of our training videos and other productions. They have demonstrated a unique ability to look beyond the everyday and see creative opportunities in any assignment they are given.
I recommend CineFocus Canada, I know that they have this country’s history and its people at its heart. And, from that place of sensitivity and humility, they will leverage their exceptional talents to do fantastic work.
I worked closely with CineFocus Canada from 2008 to 2013 on their television and web series, Green Heroes, when I was the Director of Interactive at TVO. There were very few documentary production companies doing cross-platform storytelling in 2008. I was impressed then, as I am now, with their foresight and their story-telling ability.
The research, creativity, care and sensitivity Joan, as the director and editor, put into this documentary is commendable and the fact that it is still relevant more than a decade after its release is a testament to the research and insight the CineFocus team brought to my life story.
