Goodrich also won commissions for the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics,[8][9] the 2016 Rio Summer Games, and for Qatar on their successful campaign to host the 2022 World Cup.

Goodrich directed Make Britain Proud and Inspiration,[10] two official London Olympic bid films that helped win the 2012 games.[11][12] The winning film was noted for its powerful imagery and strong messaging.[13] London Mayor Ken Livingstone said the film Inspiration 'won us the Olympics'[14] and Goodrich was named among the top ten key players who helped London win the Games (The Observer, 10 July 2005).[15]

Goodrich was commissioned to design and direct the Olympic film Inside The Race, a film exhibited at the Olympic museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.[16] For the opening ceremony of the 2012 Paralympic Games Goodrich was commissioned by Channel 4 television to direct the story of 7/11 survivor Martine Wright The Journey.[17]
