FILM production firm Humanoid has completed a project for Leek College to raise the profile of engineering as a career.

The Stafford-based company, which also has an office at Media City in Salford, went behind the scenes at a range of employers across the region.

Producers said they hope the finished film will promote the state-of-the-art projects Staffordshire companies are carrying out for international clients.

They visited companies including Goodwin International in Hanley, Unilathe in Smallthorne, Charles Leek & Sons in Leek, Staffordshire Precision Engineering in Newcastle, Grenville Engineering in Tunstall, and Rocester digger giant JCB.

Humanoid managing director Martyn Lomax said: "It's amazing to see the extensive and diverse range of skills demonstrated at locally-based engineering firms.

"The level of opportunity available to young people in this sector is immense.

"I hope our video helps to raise awareness of this exciting industry, and to promote Leek College's excellent facilities and courses."

Sentinel Business reported in August that Humanoid had opened a new office at Media City, Salford, which is home to the BBC and ITV.
