The approach
A film is only half the job
Plenty of businesses commission a video, put it on the homepage and wait. Nothing happens, because nobody was ever sent to watch it. Marketing video is three pieces of work, not one, and the third is the one most often skipped.
Decide what it is for
Before anything is filmed we agree what the video has to achieve, who needs to see it and what you want them to do next. That single decision shapes the script, the shoot and the edit.
Make it properly
Filmed and edited to a standard that reflects the business paying for it. One person from first call to final delivery, so nothing gets lost between a producer, a shooter and an editor.
Put it in front of people
I work with a digital marketing partner to get finished films in front of the right audience on YouTube and paid social, rather than leaving them to sit on a page hoping for traffic.

Why quality is not vanity
A poor film costs more than no film
A video is often the first thing a customer sees of a business, and people judge quickly. A cheap, badly lit, badly cut film does not sit there neutrally. It actively tells the viewer something about how the business operates.
That is the whole argument for doing it properly. Not gloss for its own sake, but a film that makes the business look like the one you would want to deal with.

How it works
Three steps, no surprises
01 Goals and brief
A short call to agree what the campaign has to do and who it is aimed at. You get a fixed quote before anything is booked.
02 Script and shoot
An agreed outline before the day, so nobody is improvising on camera. Filmed around your people with minimum disruption.
03 Edit and promote
First cut for review with one round of changes included, delivered in every format you need, then promoted if you want the distribution handled too.
