OUR STORY
Working in charities is rewarding but challenging, we get it because we have been there! The Saltways came together from a desire and passion to help the third sector create meaningful and high quality films.
MEET THE GANG
Emma Bracegirdle
Cofounder
I am charity professional with over 10 years’ experience. I have worked in different sized charities, focusing on fundraising, campaigns and comms.
I set up The Saltways after becoming frustrated with the lack of understanding many production companies had of the unique needs of the charity sector. I am passionate about sharing skills and making sure that all of the charities we work with get the most out of their film.
When not working on films, I love being outdoors and eating out 🙂
Peter Butler
Cofounder
I am a filmmaker and cinematographer with years of experience that has seen me work in London, New York, LA & Kosovo. I’ve worked with UK Arts Council, Library Films, Netflix, EMI, VICE Studios and Shortlist Magazine.
I decided to set up The Saltways with my sister Emma to help charities produce high quality and meaningful films. I am passionate about enabling people to tell their stories. I also spent years touring and recording music around Europe as a musician and write original music for all our films.
John Butler
Animator and Graphic Design
As an animator and graphic designer, I focus on human stories and in the past couple of years I have worked extensively with charities to deliver narrative animations that express the desired message in a relatable way.
I’m a versatile artist who is comfortable with working with a variety of styles and applications. I love to travel and have worked all across the world.
Harry Johnson
Filmmaker and Videographer
Whilst working in the film and media industry I have been included in many productions as well as producing my own material. I have experience in the key areas of pre-production, principal photography and postproduction working in crews of varying sizes. I am always looking to work on projects with positive goals and to work with people who take pride in their work. As well as making films, I am a keen boxer and love dogs!
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US
As a small charity hiring professionals can be a bit of a worry but Emma made the process really easy, she was clear about costs and stuck to our agreed budget.
The film gave us goosebumps and it was an absolute breeze to work with the team.
Working with Emma and the team at The Saltways exceeded our expectations. The care taken, and their attention to detail, resulted in a beautiful and sensitively produced film. It was an absolute joy to collaborate with them on this special project.
One of the unique things about The Saltways is that the team truly understand charities and the messages that we need to share.
We are over the moon with the results and all of the work around it that made it a success.
