"Since 2003, Holstein UK have been striving to develop and idea, born following a British Society of Animal Science Conference, to create a fully interactive 'Virtual Cow'. The main aim of this idea was to provide an extremely valuable education tool, used for training and education purposes. Many years passed without the availability of the technology or shared vision for our aim. Then we found Breeze and Freeze. This small but highly professional media company made our dreams a reality, through a combination of professionalism, vision, enthusiasm, highly skilled people a positive attitude but most of all commitment to make our ideas become a reality. The delivery of our long-awaited Virtual Cow to the industry has enjoyed an immediate positive impact. This committed and positive company managed the process for us and helped to keep all elements of the project on track, on time and most importantly on budget. I would have no hesitation in working with Breeze and Freeze again, they are a credit to their industry and the agricultural community are lucky to have such a resourceful company available to them."

"The Cereals Industry Resource Centre was scripted and put together by the Breeze and Freeze team. The resource is easy to use and understand and has been really well received by the industry. A professional job from start to finish..."
Rebecca Geraghty, Cereals Industry Forum
"I worked with Ian for the first time on a product launch in June 2004. The deadlines were short and difficult to meet but after a full day on location and an afternoon in the editing studio, we were able to create a video which was both informative and interesting. The turnaround time was impressive, the quality was of broadcast standard and we were very pleased with the end result. The use of internet download technology facilitated rapid review and feedback during the final stages of the editing process. The DVD has subsequently been used extensively as a selling aid with customers both in the UK and America. All in all we had a very good experience and would be happy to recommend Stile media."
Nigel Otter, Director, IGENITY and New Business Development, Merial Animal Health Limited.
"Stile Media have been very professional from script development right through to the final stages of post production. No request has been a problem, phone calls and emails are returned promptly and the working relationship is cultivated to ensure the best outcome for all. They achieve a balance between being supportive of the project, innovative and creative without taking over. At all times they have been efficient, and importantly, fun to work with. Our work with them was on budget, on brief and on time – what more can you ask?"
Julia Sayers, McTimoney Chiropractic Association
"We recently required a high quality DVD to promote our new advice & service offering. Ian Damms was recommended to us and given the remit of producing a DVD featuring farmers experiences of dealing with Kemira Growhow. We found Ian very easy to work with and his agricultural background invaluable. This combined with his knowledgeable and professional approach resulted in a superb DVD. This has been very well received by our customers and also at our internal company conference. We would have no hesitation in working with Stile Media again in the future."
Clive Deeley, Sales Development Manager, Kemira GrowHow UK Ltd.
" We employed Stile Media to produce a promotional video, business card CD Rom and DVD for our Tineseeder drill, the programme was produced in English and Spanish and was videoed on locations in UK and Spain. We found the team at Stile Media thoroughly professional in their approach, with innovative and creative ideas to improve the impact of the programme. I have no problem in recommending the company to others and indeed when the need arises we will use them again."

" Ian Damms and Alison Spencer have worked proactively for us both in the UK and New Zealand since 1994 on public relations related activities including media relations, issues management, function organisation, newsletter writing and trade promotion support. Good networks, initiative, common sense and good writing skills have underpinned their work and we find them a delight to work with."
MJ Loza, Chief Executive, New Zealand Game Industry Board, New Zealand.
" Ian Damms has provided corporate PR services to Meat New Zealand in the UK for the past 2 years. This has involved the monitoring of agricultural and trade media, the production of " New Zealand Meat in Europe" a quarterly 4 page newsletter to EU opinion formers, and general liaison with the media and various agricultural organisations.
Ian has demonstrated integrity and has performed these tasks in a professional manner and his network of media contacts has proven most useful. In addition Ian has a solid relationship with the UK's Agricultural Colleges and Universities.
I would commend Ian's services to any party seeking assistance in networking in and monitoring the UK's agricultural sector. "
Tim Ritchie, General Manager, Europe, Meat New Zealand.
" I commissioned Ian Damms to produce a CD Rom to support the HGCA Grain Sampling and Analysis project. The CD was aimed at farmers and was designed to provide visual information on grain sampling protocols. In addition it provided a range of additional information and contained 6 video-based modules.
Stile Media were selected for their knowledge of the industry and their ability to fulfil my specific requirements. In the event this proved to be the case and a most satisfactory CD was produced. I requested a easy to use and clean format and this was delivered.
I found Ian easy to work with and he was highly responsive to my requests. He and the camera-man he selected to work on this project had the ability to relax those being filmed and most particularly when they were being interviewed."
Simon Hook, Project Manager, Home Grown Cereals Authority, UK.
" ... many thanks for sending the sampling CD, which is excellent - most impressive. I have been involved in a project to video some of my first year heat transfer lectures and put them on CD, and I am quite proud of the result, but it is nowhere near as engaging as yours."
Dr Grant Cambell, Senior Lecturer, UMIST
" I know I am quick to criticise so I will be quick to praise. The HGCA Grain Sampling CD gives a very balanced approach and tells the farmer why he needs to know what he is selling. Well done!"
Robin Twizell, farmer and grain merchant
" I see from a borrowed copy of the HGCA CD Rom that it contains some excellent video clips. I would be grateful if you would give permission for SAC to use these video clips for teaching purposes."
Dick Taylor, Life Sciences Teaching Group, Scottish Agricultural Colleges
