In the run up to the 2012 Olympics there is hot competition to become an international training camp for visiting teams. I was commissioned to produce a promotional film for the recently refurbished Medway Park to help attract visiting Olympic teams to Medway and to promote the facilities to the wider local community.

Introduced by former Olympic Champion and World Record holder Steve Backley, the film highlights the new facilities at Medway Park and includes footage of sporting events held at the Park including the Modern Pentathlon World Cup, as well as promoting Medway’s cultural and historical background. The film was first screened at the Medway Sports Awards 2010.

Today sees the launch of the Our Medway exhibition at Rochester’s Guildhall Museum which includes a looped screening of a short film I produced about this Olympics inspired project.

Medway Council is determined to deliver a lasting legacy from the London 2012 Games, and one of its largest and most ambitious projects to achieve this is Our Medway. The project was recently awarded the badge of the London 2012 Inspire Programme, which recognises innovative and exceptional projects directly inspired by the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Client feedback:

“I think the film is superb, you have done a great job!!…Well done, it’s brilliant.”

“This looks wonderful! Thank you so much for putting it together for us and for making it so exciting.”

Commissioned by Medway 2012 Team the film will be used to promote Medway nationally and internationally as both a first-class tourist destination and a sporting centre of excellence.
