We reflected on the successes of the past year as well as looking forward at what’s to come for the North East.
From major studio development plans in Sunderland to the boom of comedy in the area, it’s clear that our region has a lot to give.
Here at HT, we even had our own reasons to be proud, as we were fortunate enough to be nominated for some awards of our own. Cal was short listed for the Rising star award which recognises the industry’s emerging talent, and Dave was short listed for the Professional Excellence Award for Post Production.
We are honoured to be considered amongst so many talented individuals and companies in our region. We work with incredible clients and love being part of their journey, telling their stories along the way.
It’s also important to recognise how we got here. Sadly we had to say goodbye to one of HT’s founders in October last year. Our colleague and friend Tony Cartledge was instrumental in all our development, something we will always be grateful for. It was heart-warming to see him remembered along with other local legends at this year’s ceremony.

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||30px|||” custom_padding=”||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”]‘We had a great time at the RTS awards on Saturday. Cal was nominated by myself and Dave for the Rising Star award, an award that recognises those who are new to the industry but are destined to make a real impact.
Dave was nominated for the Professional Excellence in Post Production award. Although neither of them walk away with the trophy, both were shortlisted and made it into the final three.
I’m incredibly proud. It shows that our team is made up of talented individuals who are on par with the likes of large production houses in the region as well as big name broadcasters like the BBC and ITV.’
