TEAM
With 18 full-time team members, 100 collaborators and a business that’s been in operation for 22 years, you’re in very safe hands.
This is some of the core team that you’ll be working with:
TOM WARD
Managing Director
Founded Sandstorm in 2000 in Soho Square before moving the production unit to an airfield in Wiltshire in 2003 and later the post department in 2012. Tom’s vision for Sandstorm was to cut smoke-and-mirrors, hidden costs and to solely focus on getting the very best production for your budget, 22 years on, the ethos is exactly the same.
AYO HUGHES
Strategy Director
Ayo spent over twenty years in some of the world’s leading creative agencies, producing TV commercials and integrated campaigns – if he hasn’t experienced it, there is a high likelihood that it is simply not important!
MARK PATTERSON
Head of Production
18 years with Sandstorm both in a full-time and freelance capacity, Mark has an in-depth knowledge of production, post production and CGI. He has a proven track record for delivering consistently above and beyond expectations.
JENNY CHAPMAN
Head of Bookings
9 years with Sandstorm full time, she was a freelance producer before she joined. Jen pins all aspects of Sandstorm’s offer together for you, from the first quote through to delivery, she’s an essential point of contact.
AMY WARREN
Creative Producer
Amy joined the team to fill our favourite role, that of Creative Producer – a term that makes no sense to our clients in Feature Films or Commercials, but is essential in all corporate, digital and communications work. Amy can produce, direct and edit and helps Mark coordinate all productions here at Sandstorm too.
LAURA COWAN
Director Club Manager
Happy, smiley, energetic and your go-to when you need that essential morning barista coffee and breakfast, a meeting room, breakfast, lunch or dinner sorted for your production. Laura works alongside Jen to ensure that your visit here is smooth, relaxing and productive… it’s as simple as that.
