Overview
We make commercial work the same way we make documentary: find the real people, let them talk, and build the film around something true. It is far more persuasive than a voiceover over drone shots.
We work with businesses, charities, sports clubs, councils, colleges and universities on brand films, recruitment films, case studies, campaign content and event coverage.
The approach
One idea, cut many ways
We start from the outcome you need — applications, donations, sign-ups, awareness — and work back to the story that gets it. One shoot is planned to produce a hero film plus vertical cuts, stings and stills so the campaign has enough material to run for months.
Scripts, storyboards and shot lists are agreed up front so the shoot day is predictable and the budget does not drift.
Who we work with
Regional organisations and national brands
Because we are a production company rather than an agency, you get the filmmakers in the room from the first meeting and there is no mark-up on subcontracted crew.
We are equally comfortable on a one-day single-camera interview shoot and on a multi-day scripted commercial with a full lit unit.
