InkBlot Films -

I perform with York-based Folk Rock band Blackbeard's Tea Party and we hired Inkblot to assist us with creating a 30 minute film of a live performance that we had been commissioned to do by a third party.

Mike and Jay from Inkblot were extremely passionate when discussing the project and were very helpful in planning how the filming would work. It did end up being quite a complex shoot but they steered us through it very well and both ourselves and our client were overjoyed with the result.

I worked with Mike and his team to do a virtual tour for my client - Geoffrey Benson & Sons - so we could improve their overall digital presence and add to their new website so when potential customers can't get to the showroom they can look around. Communication was great and the result was fantastic. Both myself and the client are very pleased with the result and they have even had their first sale from it as a result of it being embedded on site. InkBlot were professional throughout and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any other clients in the future for similar services. Thank you Mike and team.

We have worked with Inkblot on two major projects at Fairfax House (a Georgian townhouse museum in York) - for 'Character of Home' and 'If Walls Could Talk: The Forgotten Story of Ann Fairfax. One adapted an in-house theatrical performance into an interactive digital platform, the other created an installation within the Museum itself. Both times the team have been absolutely fantastic and we couldn't be more pleased with product. From the get go Jay and Mike were brimming with creative ideas which have made the final results beyond our expectations. They have consistently shown considerable flexibility, being willing to adapt quickly to necessarily changes or suggested edits and shown an openness to working with a range of different voices and approaches.

As a heritage venue both projects necessitated considerable adaptations to show the historic interiors (and narratives told) in the best light. The final products also had to match the expectations of our visitors, being visually highly appealing, accessible and engaging - none of which was a problem for Inkblot.

If you're after a creative hard working team, who will produce a stand out innovative project these are your guys - I genuinely couldn't recommend Inkblot more highly.

Thank you to Mike at Inkblot films for streaming and recording one of our events for us. Mike streamed our event to our remote participants, allowing them to both watch the event and take part. It was the best hybrid event we have ever run and it gave us a lot to think about!
Mike also edited the footage from the evening and added in slides, logos and all sorts to make the video seamless and professional. We've been able to use these videos on our YouTube channel to encourage our members to become STEM Ambassadors.
Thank you Mike for all your help - as well as all of this amazing work you have been so lovely to work with.

Working with Mike and Jay and the Inkblot team was a fantastic experience. We were all a bit nervous about appearing in front of a camera, but on the day they actually managed to make it easy and fun. You're in safe hands, they know exactly what they are doing, and best of all the final product was excellent.. All of us at Ardent Financial Planning are delighted with the results on our website. Absolutely recommend them.

InkBlot were recommended to us when we wanted a film to advertise the services of our charity on a new website we were developing. Both Mike and Jay were great to work with and quickly understood our needs. They spent time making sure they got the right shots to tie in with our script and the end result is fantastic. We couldn't be more pleased with how it looks and We would recommend them to anyone.

Mike was amazing at our daughters christening. He spent his time taking lots of photos of my daughter getting christened, the guests in the church and then during the party he took photos of all the guests interacting with each other. He also got us to stand together with our daughter and our family and friends for our daughters guestbook photos, he would spend the time to get everyone to laugh and smile to get their natural smiles for the photos. We received the link to view our photos really quick and the photos were amazing and really caught each and every moment of our daughters special day! We would definitely use mike as our photographer again and would recommend him to our friends, family and anyone who needed a photographer.
