‘Anton demonstrated high levels of adaptability and supportive approaches which ensured that people were fully involved in the entire experience. The sensitive way in which Anton worked with people with learning disabilities to portray the messages within the film was outstanding and led to a film which exceeded our expectations.’
Nina Atkinson
Loop Dance Company
‘I have worked with Anton on a variety of projects, at first as a commissioned documentary maker and later as a collaborator and fellow artist. He has a talent for getting the best out of anyone he places in the frame, with clear and kind guidance he encourages young, old, amateur and professionals alike to allow their passion to shine through. Always fun to work with, Anton exudes a creativity which is infectious.’
Amy Merritt

‘Thank you for helping us to make such a powerful and inspiring film with young people – and amazingly after just one take at the filming! The final product was so much better than I could have imagined, thanks to your sensitivity to the subject: you absolutely ‘got’ the message that we were trying to convey and created something that we, our partners and the young people themselves, are really proud of.’

‘I have commissioned Anton French on several occasions for Sounds Like Art. I am always excited to work with him and like to give him ‘free rein’ over my creative projects. He documents creative moments with insightfulness and artistry, bringing out themes I might not have considered or noticed myself. I cannot recommend him highly enough.’

‘We have used AF Film for a number of projects – ranging from short promos to longer documentary-style features showcasing our work. At all times AF Film has demonstrated high levels of professionalism, combined with commitment, passion and a highly creative approach. As an NHS organisation we take value for money extremely seriously and AF Film has always delivered high-quality work at an exceptional price. I would have no hesitation in recommending AF Film to any organisation looking to promote or showcase their work in a cost-effective way.’

“Knowing I wanted to be able to share the work as widely as possible meant creating a film; having worked for several years on diverse projects with Anton French, he was naturally my first choice film maker. As always he proved invaluable to the project, not only filming what Sophie and I created but his creativity and curiosity greatly contributed to the whole project. His eye for detail, his personable approach and his professionalism ensured we ended up with a film of which we could all be proud.” Dr Tina Carter
