CONSULTANCY

image_2024-02-13_152356833.png

Our aim is to break down the barriers to accessing an authentic vision of the past, and we take pride in getting it right down to the smallest details.

Historical Consultancy

With decades of research, study, and a library of world-class reference material we are confident in stating that we are experts in our subject area.

Our expertise spans clothing, hairstyles, language, social structures, vehicles of the first half of the 20th Century and much more.

We can help you create an authentic sense of the past, drawing on a multitude of subtle details be that through costumes, sets or actions.

We will take the time to carefully research the historical moment in question to the highest level, offering you all you need to achieve historical accuracy.

If you want to take your production to the next level of authenticity, then we'd love to hear from you.

Of course, we recognise the need for artistic licence and budgetary constraints within all creative media, and we understand that our role is strictly advisory. We will work collaboratively, respecting whatever your specific needs and requirements.

Military Consultancy

We are also specialists in the British Armed Forces from 1914-1945, covering all three services in both world wars and the interwar years.

Getting military details correct is notoriously difficult, uniforms and equipment vary greatly depending on unit, conflict, operation, even down to the specific moment in question. The details are often very subtle, but vitally important for overall authenticity. As difficult as these details are to get right, things are made worse by misleading assumptions, poor quality or inaccurate reproductions, and preconceived notions of what the past ought to be.

From understanding period-correct weapons handling, the idiosyncrasies of uniform and equipment, to military activity in the field of battle, we know how to create a convincing and authentic military production from the ground up.
