Mike Stride – Producer and sound recordist with a strong financial background. I am fascinated by health and education issues that can be explored through film. I have really enjoyed highlighting important health and educational issues that have led to changes in outlook and perspective. For me it is important to work with integrity and in close contact with clients to ensure their needs are fully met. As a professional I think that my proudest achievements have to include creating DVDs on black achievement, cancer, adoption, filming in Africa and running a workshop with children in care. My most amazing experience is completing the London Marathon despite a knee injury. Mike has a degree in accounting and finance.
Ros Gihan Williams – Director and camera operator with a passion for new and innovative projects, Ros has worked at Channel 4 Multicultural and Night Time Departments. I’ve always loved film. Originally I wanted to be a film critic then I thought “instead of just sitting around why don’t I make the films!” I love how emotions can be stirred and empathy can be conveyed through watching other people’s experiences. My most memorable experience was travelling across Gambia and Senegal with little sleep and food and yet being able to immediately switch on to a completely professional mode once it was time to film. Being invited to the Desh Pardesh film festival in Toronto to run a workshop on transracial adoption as a result of our film ‘Love is Not Enough’ was definitely one of my proudest moments. And believe it or not I’ve slept in the same hotel bed as Steven Spielberg in Kandy, Sri Lanka, I wonder if any of the creative genius rubbed off on me!
Ros has a degree in Film, Video and Photographic Arts from the University of Westminster

John Sleeman - Producer, passionate about creating projects about human rights & responsibility, the environment, personal development, spirituality and conscious commerce.
I have a passion for film and have come to realise what a powerful tool it is in understanding people, the world they live in and its ability to inspire change. I would describe myself as a social activist with entrepreneurial aspirations. I dare to imagine seeing businesses that are run holistically as if the planet and people really matter. A place where people own their personal power and know how to use it. My most memorable experience is working in China in the early 1980’s.
John has a BA (Hons) in Business Studies with a marketing major and a big imagination.
