Focusing on classic and modern American automobiles, the returning event celebrated all things American with an emphasis on the vintage as well. Following on from last years video which featured the fictional Symes family, our brief this year was to capture the event as it was, showcase the range and breadth of cars involved, get vox pops with members of the public, car enthusiasts, display teams and more to help tell the story of the event and why people have enjoyed their day so much.

Judith Dandy has run funeral director Dandelion Farewells for a decade and upon entering that milestone, wanted to do something to celebrate it and push the business forward for another decade or more.

She decided to create a series of videos – which is something not done by many other funeral directors – which told her story, talked about the services she offers and heard from familes she has supported during their difficult times as well as from her partners who help with this.

The project involved a day of filming each month, for 6 months and saw us travel around the West Sussex area to get interviews and film pieces-to-camera to create around 30 videos comprising the filmed material.

These videos were then edited down into two highlight videos which were screened at a special anniversary event at the Everyman Cinema in Horsham in 2025.

We produced these videos with Luna Russell from Whistlestop Arts who scripted and planned the production days.
