H&H was one of our first clients back in 2012 while Alastair was still in High School! Nina Oxley who is head of marketing at H&H group got Alastair in to photograph a few charity events and images for press releases. What a great learning curve and we are so happy that it has now led to a more formal professional collaboration.
In March of 2019 Nina contacted us about a possible project for Harrison & Hetherington. She knew they wanted something different that showed the heart of the business that has been around over over 140 years, and wanted to look at a range of suggestions. After a few meetings with Nina and David a brief was formed and the project began.
The deadline for this video was Agri-Expo 2019. Agri is one of the biggest farming events in the UK and is a flagship event for Harrison & Hetherington. What a great event at which to showcase the video for the first time!
In the end we created two videos to suit different elements: The first video was showing a year in the life in Harrison & Hetherington across their different marts (from Broughton to Wooler and Lockerbie to Middleton and everything in between!). The second video was to show a visual timeline of the history of H&H from it's beginnings to its present form.
The main video, which was the "year in the life" video, was great to produce as we could showcase the importance the auction marts and the farming community in our every day lives. A real eye-opener! Each of the marts across Harrison and Hetherington has its own very unique character so we worked hard to capture as much of the traditional ways of mart life which you can see in the likes of Middleton and Broughton, and the contrast of the more modern marts that can be seen at Borderway in Carlisle.
Honestly we had enough footage to create an amazing full length feature film. However, one of the skills of our profession is to know how to edit and condense footage to capture the core message you want to convey. The video went live at Agri-Expo on time and was shown to over 3,000 people on the day. H&H have since used this video to help promote their marts and the brand.
We have collaborated with H&H on more projects and also work with other parts of the business.
