Ward 1 Studios - Guelph, Ontario

We hired Ward 1 Studios to film some videos at a trade show last year and our whole team was impressed! The people who work for Ward 1 are incredible and extremely professional.

I first spoke with Sandy who was prompt and courteous with his communication. He was thorough and made sure to communicate with us through every step of the way.

Nadim shot the (gorgeous!) videos. We loved working with him at the show and would hire him to shoot for us again in a heartbeat. He's a fantastic videographer!

This studio is the total package. Give them a call, you will NOT be disappointed.

Our organization was selected to work with Ward 1 as part of their "One Community" initiative to shoot a promotional video/photoshoot session for our upcoming lacrosse season and we were very impressed.

Right from Day 1, the communication level from the Director (Alex) was great. We were always kept in the loop on what was going on, what the plan was, and what they needed on our end. The day of the shoot, the entire crew was fantastic - very organized, fun, and energetic. Alex, Blair, Sandy and Scott were all involved and were a real pleasure to work with.

We were very happy with the outcome. The video and pictures turned out awesome, and we received a very positive reaction from the rest of the lacrosse community across Ontario!

Everyone we worked with was very easygoing and knew their stuff. The professionalism was top-notch throughout the whole process.

We would definitely work with them again. Thanks, guys!

Ward 1 Studios has been my go-to video production company for years. If you are looking for "above and beyond" service you've found the right people. They check all the boxes - professional, creative, timely, and very talented.

Our company has used them for everything from internal announcements, to interviews, to capturing event footage, to large-scale fundraising campaigns. They intuitively "get" our vision for any kind of project. They are fantastic at putting their interview subjects at ease and getting the best sound bytes. They put thought and care into every project.

Not only are they superb at creating a fantastic end product, they are wonderful at everything that comes before and after: communicating with us, coordinating script and materials, providing timelines, etc. This has HUGE value as it saves so much time and energy on our end.

In fact, when Ward 1 has been working with us at an event, other third-party companies have remarked to me how professional they are. To quote verbatim what one person said: "I've worked with a lot of video companies and I can tell you, those folks know what they're doing, so keep using them."

It is a pleasure working with Ward 1 Studios and I highly recommend them.

Wow! What a fantastic team of professionals to work with. From the very first time working with this group, I knew Ward 1 Studios was going places. Professional, dedicated, determined and creative, this group "checks all the boxes". What an incredible company! (After writing this, I noticed someone else used the same phrase "checks all the boxes" in their review....that's because it is exactly what you think about after working with them!)

I had a vision for two videos to creatively tell our organizational history and describe who we are. One video involved a nighttime campfire scene followed by a sunrise scene the next morning. The other video inolved hiking through a forest. They executed both videos flawlessly and the result was beyond my wildest dreams. They did everything I asked and added some magnificent shots on their own initiative. The music they used was perfect. The project was completed exactly as scheduled. I can't recommend them highly enough

We are thrilled with Ward One's work on our video for the 2018 Oak Tree Project. Blair made it really easy to get the message across in a way that really conveyed our excitement to bring this new initiative to the community. The final product exceeded all our expectations.

HOPE House has worked with Ward 1 Studios on a couple of different video projects. Each one has been an extremely positive experience. Our last video project had an extremely tight turnaround 2 weeks from concept to completion and helped support a grant application that resulted in a 3000% return on our investment.
