Rachel co-founded Chocolate Films in 2001 and is a creative director of 1000 Londoners. Rachel is a Trustee of the National Portrait Gallery, UK Council member of the Creative Industries Federation, member of Film London's Film Hub Panel, Leadership Fellow of St George's House (Windsor) and Fellow of the RSA.
Chocolate Films works primarily with a full-time team rather than freelancers. We do this so we can concentrate on enabling each filmmaker to become a master at using our kit to create great quality content. And we value our team's work and time and so have policies in place such as a time off in lieu scheme, and a ban on unpaid internships.
Video content has proven to dramatically increase engagement and sales - it's moved from being one of many marketing tools to the essential promotional medium. Video on landing pages can increase conversions by over 80% and nine out of ten customers now say videos help them make buying decisions. At Chocolate Films we produce trailers for major museums and galleries, corporate promos for FTSE 500 businesses, social videos for charities and more.
Motion graphics and animation are fantastic tools to help deliver messaging, however complex, in a simple and creative way. They can explain your brand offer within seconds, and build your audience engagement with imaginative storytelling. Whether it's a whiteboard animation or explainer video, a hand-drawn character animation or moving infographics, our talented team at Chocolate Films will design impactful video animation to fit your brief.
A powerful, three minute film can move and inspire. It could open the audience's eyes to a human interest story, communicate the mission of your charity campaign, or uncover the history of an artwork. Chocolate Films is one of the most successful short documentary production companies in the UK.

Chocolate Films did an absolutely fantastic job producing videos for our museum. They were professional throughout, and really helped guide us through a process that provides important interpretation and stories for our gallery. Their production team were professional, punctual, flexible, and friendly with everyone they dealt with - I would not hesitate to recommend them and hope to work with them again in future.

We engaged Chocolate Films to produce a mix of short promo films and a 25 minute tour of our new exhibition. From planning to post-production, they were incredibly efficient and communicative. Working to our budget, they managed to create really great looking content and more than met our brief. Highly recommended!

Chocolate Films have been great to work with - they are approachable, friendly and responsive. They have adapted quickly to a changing brief, provided very useful and insightful feedback when required as well as producing an end product that is high quality and we are very happy with. Would recommend them to anyone considering their services and would definitely work with them again.
