What people ask before they hire us
- 01
What if our people hate being filmed?
Nearly all of them tell us they’ll be terrible at it. We spend time with each person before anyone films them, keep the crew to two or three, and make it a conversation rather than a script. If someone really won’t, there are other ways, from actors to animation.Never been on camera What does it cost?
Most production companies won’t tell you until you’ve had a call. We publish ours. The cost guide shows what a film costs at four budgets, and what moves a quote up or down.What things costHow long does it take?
Four to six weeks from brief to delivery, for most projects. If you’ve got a fixed date, we plan back from it, and a rush job can be done faster.How we workWhat do we actually get?
A finished film, cut for every place it’ll be shown, from your website to LinkedIn to a screen at an event. The price is fixed before we start, so the invoice matches the quote.How we workHave you done this for someone like us?
Probably. We’ve made films for a bank, a private equity firm, three payments companies, independent schools, charities and churches, and for brands including Coca-Cola, LEGO and Chelsea FC.See the workDo you only make corporate films?
No. Most of our video production services are for businesses, schools and charities, but the same crew makes music videos and band promos, fashion and food films, short films and documentary, as well as the recruitment, testimonial and training films most people know us for. Whatever the film is, you get a video production agency that directs, films and edits it itself.Video production servicesCan you do social as well?
Yes. One shoot day can give you a main film and a set of short cuts for social. We also work on a monthly retainer, filming in batches to a plan we’ll help you write.Social media video
