AN HONEST REPRESENTATION OF THE MODERN MAKER
A textiles designer, a pair of chair makers and a jeweller share their insights into what it takes to perfect a craft and make a creative living in a modern world where mass consumerism reigns supreme.
Filmed in the winter sunshine by cinematographer Danny Bonnar, with Guy Satchwell on sound, the pilot expertly captures what it is to immerse oneself in a craft. Deliberate and slow-paced, the documentary draws you into each maker’s world, spending time in their workspace and on location at places that fire their imagination and spark their creativity. While each maker’s story is unique, the episode weaves together the common threads into a cohesive narrative that touches on the struggles as well as the successes.
We hope you enjoy our documentary and if you did, please give it a like, share with friends and leave a comment.
Thank you!
Kate & Jack.

I can not imagine being given the opportunity to learn a craft with a ready made traditional company to walk into. Hugo is a modern day hero. If more people who can provide opportunities like this did so many traditional crafts would still be part of day to day life. lucky lads
This should be on Netflix or something. So good.

A most stunning multi-sensory experience. I'm so very glad to be a part of the same culture in my own corner of the world.
Amazing, loved this highlighting of makers & their history while also being beautifully filmed. Looking forward to more of this and future magazine issues. Love from New York as the daughter of a Scotsman ❤

Well done, hope all goes well....
I really enjoyed this! That one comment of 'when you are buying from a maker you aren't just buying a product but all the years and skills it took someone to make and learn that craft'. Series like these are really important to show all the work and passion that goes into a makers craft.

Such a beautifully made documentary, thankyou for highlighting the journey of these three makers, I thoroughly enjoyed it and as a maker myself completely related to some aspects of their journey. I echo the sentiments of the other comments, I would love to see another one of these documentaries.
