Teeny Tiny Films - History and Key People
Teeny Tiny Films was conceived by its principal Sam Forsyth in 2005.
After ten years in Wildlife and Science TV in Bristol and London, Sam was a dad-at-home and back in Teesdale. Teeny Tiny Films seemed to be a useful way of filling up his spare time (!)
Sam approached a number of local people key to the business’s development and encouraged them to join the Board of Directors. They were chosen for not only the personal skills they brought, but also the enhanced and wider community benefit that can result through their respective organisations working together.

TTF was incorporated in September 2005.
