RAC – Orange Heroes film


By - Richard - 5th June 2018

We were commissioned by the RAC to produce a short, punchy film that looks at the selfless work of the RAC Patrols – the ‘Orange Heroes’ that attend more than 2.3 million vehicles each year.

We spent three days out on the road with Patrols based in Manchester and Birmingham. From the resulting footage, where we filmed more than 23 stricken vehicles, we pulled together a one minute film.
