"Darren has served as a jury member for British Animation Awards where his contribution demonstrated his knowledge and skills, and acute judgement. I have also worked alongside him in an animation studio where he was noticeable for being extremely hard-working, creative and keen to seek out every opportunity to further develop his technical and creative skills. He was also very well liked and professionally appreciated by all his colleagues." March 9, 2011

was with another company when working with Darren at Chase Imagination
"I'm pleased to recommend Darren Wall and his creative team for any film or animation work one may need. I hired Darren Wall to produce our Prologue for our CG Animated Film "FireBreather". The prologue needed to be highly stylized and Darren and his team delivered. Their design, storytelling and directing sensibilities were above superior. They consistently delivered on time, took direction well and regularly plused the piece creatively. I, our Director and the Studio in general was elated with the outcome of the piece." March 1, 2011
