At Inspired Film and Video, we believe in creativity with results — telling stories that not only look stunning but also deliver real impact. That’s why our work with Screen Staffordshire has been such an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Over the past year, we’ve collaborated to produce a series of films that celebrate the diversity, character, and cinematic potential of Staffordshire’s world-class locations.
From historic estates to sweeping forest landscapes, these films have acted as a powerful showcase for producers, scouts, and location managers looking for their next backdrop. Working side-by-side with the team at Screen Staffordshire, we’ve helped bring these spaces to life on camera — capturing both the practical and emotive qualities that make them so remarkable for film and TV production.
Bringing Staffordshire Film Locations to the Big Screen
Our work with Screen Staffordshire focused on three core elements that together build a compelling and immersive location film:
- On-Location Presenting & Interviews
We filmed on location with expert presenters who guided viewers through each site — explaining its features, history, and suitability for different production needs. Alongside this, we recorded insightful interviews with local stakeholders, capturing authentic perspectives that enrich the narrative and highlight what makes each place special. - High-Quality B-Roll
Beautiful b-roll is the backbone of any location film. Across Cannock Chase, Weston Park, and Chillington Hall, our team captured cinematic footage that lets these places speak for themselves — from sweeping woodland vistas to intricate architectural details. - Drone Cinematography for Scale & Drama
To truly show off the breadth and character of these locations, we integrated aerial drone footage that adds scale, context, and visual dynamism. These aerials help potential location scouts feel the space in a way that photos alone simply can’t achieve.
Featured Films & Standout Examples
A highlight from this series is our film on Chillington Hall, an elegant historic estate that has been a backdrop for film and television, notably featured in Murder Before Evensong. Our film showcases this venue’s versatility and aesthetic appeal:
Working on this location series with Screen Staffordshire has reaffirmed our belief in the power of film to promote place, purpose, and possibility. Each finished piece not only showcases beautiful locations but also supports growth in the local screen sector — helping to attract national and international production interest to Staffordshire.
Whether it’s woodland landscapes or stately halls, our films help organisations tell location stories with creativity and confidence.
