  • “Luminate Media's Geoff was an absolute pleasure to work with on the BBC Earth Podcast. His ear for a great story, multifaceted production skills and professional manner helped to deliver an award-winning podcast we were all immensely proud of. Geoff’s passion for audio is a boon to any project, and I hope we get the chance to work together again.”

    Lee Bacon – Head of Digital at The Natural History Unit, BBC Studios

  • "Luminate Media's commitment to The PJ Pod has been unwavering since they helped us launch our podcast back in 2020, and their contributions have been instrumental in turning our podcast into an award-winning platform."

    Carolyn Wickware – Executive Editor, Pharmaceutical Journal

  • "We have worked with Luminate for many years and they are one of our most trusted and valued freelancers - always a pleasure to work with and brimming with ideas. Their talent for bringing stories to life is unparalleled, always going the extra mile to weave compelling narrative into complex scientific stories - bringing out the humanity behind the papers and maintaining the high level of accuracy that the Nature audience demands."

    Noah Baker – Chief Multimedia Editor, Nature 

  • "We have worked with Luminate Media on two film projects, and both have been incredibly positive experiences. They have an excellent ability to distill often complex concepts, contexts and programming into visually stunning, cinematic stories that resonate with our diverse audiences and donors."

    Charles Davy – Managing Director, Afghanaid

  • "Working with Luminate Media was a complete pleasure from start to finish. They worked alongside our team on an exciting field trip to a hydrothermal vent in an Icelandic Fjord. They conducted interviews and filmed every aspect of our work, producing a beautiful and informative film about our NERC-funded research project. They took the complex ideas of our research project and helped us turn them into a coherent message for our broader stakeholders."

    Dr Adrian Glover - Merit Researcher, Natural History Museum

  • "We approached Luminate Media to create a film about our work on a Wellcome trust and MRC funded Neurodegenerative Diseases Initiative. They helped us craft the video in a way that we think really got our message across to the public. A really nice touch was framing the research using the director's grandmother as the on-screen narrator- she really brought the importance of our work to life. We really enjoyed the whole process and are very proud of the final film - I would highly recommend Luminate Media to any academics hoping to produce a film for outreach."

    Professor Patrick Lewis - Honorary Associate Professor, UCL

  • “We had the pleasure of working with Geoff and Natalia on an internal workshop on science communication skills for our early career scientists volunteers at the European Geosciences Union (EGU). They were incredibly prompt and helpful and tailored the programme of the workshop to our specific needs. The workshop itself was engaging and full of pertinent examples and helpful behind-the-scenes information on science communication. We loved working with them and hope to do so again in the future.”

    Christina Orieschnig - ECS rep of the EGU's Hydrological Sciences division

  • " Luminate created a visually stunning video on World Weather Attribution. They communicated complex concepts with precision and creativity. Working with them was an absolute pleasure."

    Sam Ezra Fraser-Baxter - Communications Manager, WWA, Imperial College

  • "Working with Natalia was a joy from start to finish. Natalia took no time at all to understand who we are as an organisation, our values, our tone of voice and our ways of working. She was able to pick up work as if she’s always been a member of the team and we felt confident that everything would be completed to a high standard – and it was! Natalia was able to offer important strategic insights and provide recommendations to strengthen our work, whilst clearly understanding how we operate as a small charity. Our IG is without doubts in a stronger position because of the work Natalia undertook. She is professional, hardworking and incredibly talented, as well as being a friendly and supportive colleague. We would highly recommend Natalia and would love to work with her again in the future. "
