For some reason 'Gold' just didn't seem cool enough so they called it...

SILVER FILMS!

“Silver can be formed into a shape the mind can conceive”

Janey de Nordwall

Silver films was established in 1996 by Janey de Nordwall. She wanted to take the step from events to films, a different step indeed, but a step which would lead on to her being a part of a team who won a 2001 BAFTA award for the 'Best short film' and others.

Silver films began in Manchester with business from advertising for gaming companies, product launches and live events. This helped to build a reputation for the company but also for generating enough money to have the resources to concentrate solely on researching film making and development. Silver films has since then made a few accreditated films which have won or been nominated for awards in numerous film festivals. Other work includes adverts for famous brands such as Toyota, Lexus and Umbro.

Also in 2006 the company was joined by advert director Richard Oliver and now have bases in both Manchester and London. Janey de Nordwall has continued to work in the film industry with the role as producer on a numerous amount of films including the most recent 'Gardens with red roses'.

They describe how they work with just one word ‘Diligently’. The fact that they use a word that solely means persevering efforts tells a lot for the values they have for films. They put a lot of hard work into their projects and our confident in what they do. The confidence is shown through the use of one strong word to describe how they work, shows the focus they have also.

The trailer for Gardens with red roses.

This film is set in 1997 at the start of the New Labour government, with the effects of the Conservative era still in the midst of society. This story sees the struggle of a couple looking to make their own mark in the world but are being held back by misfortunes in their lives.
