A World of Difference
This film charts the progress of a major European research project: the quest to develop alternative, reliable and cost-effective methods for the analysis of dioxins in food and animal feed. It was filmed at locations in the Netherlands and Barcelona, and distributed to research laboratories around Europe.

“We’d worked with Callisto’s Producer a few years ago on another European project so we already knew that he not only understands how the scientific mind works but he can also help us to communicate a complex scientific message. Callisto was the obvious choice for this new project and it was great working with their team again.”
“The producer spent a lot of time listening to us and developing a really good script and the team managed every stage of the project with great care and precision. We all enjoyed the collaborative nature of the process. It was a highly technical piece and Callisto’s suggestion that we use a presenter to help retain the audience’s attention turned out to be sound advice. The filming schedule was certainly demanding, but the crew were well organized, disciplined and determined.”
“The film was launched at a workshop in Brussels where the audience response was positive and enthusiastic. Representatives from organizations outside the EU, such as the Canadian Public Health authorities, US EPA and the United Nations Environment Programme, were clearly very impressed. The film’s also being used to train scientists and analysts and it’ll be shown in all five continents in UN workshops as a part of the UN Global Monitoring Network on Contaminants.”
“Callisto is a very professional company. It’s delivered a first class film. We hope we’ll be working with them again in the near future.”
