What stages does a video project go through, and how long does it take?

Every project runs through brief, pre-production, shoot and post-production. Timing depends on script complexity, the number of shoot days, location and casting needs, and review rounds. Once scope is agreed, we share a staged schedule.

How are permissions handled for drone shoots?

Aerial work is subject to the airspace classification of the location and the civil aviation rules in force. We assess the site during pre-production, plan the necessary applications, and propose alternative coverage where flight is not permitted.

Can one shoot day produce more than one piece of content?

Yes, provided it is written into the shot list in advance. Vertical cuts, short social videos and stills hold up without quality loss when they are shot as part of the same plan rather than salvaged afterwards.

Can you work with footage we already have?

We can. We review your existing material for resolution, audio quality and usage rights, then agree with you which sections are usable in the edit and what genuinely needs to be reshot.

Photo and video production that tells your story, works in every channel and connects to sales

From corporate films and commercials to product photography and vertical social video, we plan and shoot visual content around a clear question: where it will run and which decision it needs to move.

Discuss Your Project Explore All Agency Services

Most video projects fail in the brief, not on the camera. The budget goes into the shoot day, while the questions of where the content will run, at what length, for whom and to what end are postponed. The result is a well-shot film with nowhere to live. We treat production as an asset system built alongside its distribution plan, not as a single deliverable: one shoot day is designed to yield the hero film, short cuts, vertical versions and photography sets by intent rather than by accident.

Problems we solve

The business problems this work solves

There is no visual library, so every request starts from zero
The website, the sales deck, advertising and social channels all need imagery at the same time. Without a planned shoot, teams fall back on phone snaps or images with unclear licensing.
The product is strong, but the imagery makes it look ordinary
In e-commerce and catalogue selling, the photograph carries the decision. Weak lighting, framing and detail work quietly position the product below where it belongs next to competitors.
The corporate film gets watched but changes nothing
A film that describes the company without asking anything of the viewer becomes a ceremonial artefact. If the narrative has no defined audience and no next step, the investment does not return.
Content volume cannot keep pace with social channels
Short-form formats demand continuous, consistent output. One-off flagship productions cannot sustain that rhythm, so channels run dry or quality swings from post to post.

Our approach

Distribution planned before the shoot

Before a camera is set up, we put in writing which channel the content runs on, at what duration and for whom. That plan drives framing, length and the shot list itself.

One shoot day, many usable formats

While the set is up, we treat the landscape film, the vertical cuts and the photography needs as parts of one plan. It raises production output and leaves the brand with a coherent visual library.

Narrative built on buying questions, not company history

We build the script around the questions a buyer actually asks while deciding, rather than around what the company wants to say. A film persuades when it answers those questions in order.

Process

How we work

1
Brief and creative development
We agree the objective, audience, message and destination channels, then build the script, shot list and visual references around them.
2
Pre-production
Location scouting, schedule, crew and equipment planning, required permissions and any casting are settled before the shoot day.
3
Shoot
Set, lighting, camera, sound and drone operations run against the agreed shot list, with footage backed up and logged at the end of each day.
4
Post-production and delivery
After editing, grading, graphics and audio finishing, the content is versioned for each channel's format, aspect ratio and subtitle requirements.
