A Clear Picture of Your Company, in a Few Minutes.
A corporate film shows what your company does, how it works and who stands behind it. We build it from interviews with your people, footage of real work on your premises and, where it helps, graphics and voiceover.
Once made, it does a job you would otherwise repeat by hand. A prospective client, partner or new hire can watch it before the first meeting and arrive already knowing who you are.
Especially useful when you are
- launching or rebranding a company
- moving into a new market or sector
- recruiting and want candidates to see the workplace
- preparing for an exhibition, tender or investor meeting
- explaining a service that is hard to describe in words
Where it gets used
One Film, Used in Four Places.
-
On your website
A short film on the home or about page shows visitors who you are and how you work before they get in touch.
-
In presentations
A clip at the start of a pitch or staff meeting sets the scene, with shorter versions cut to fit the slot you have.
-
At exhibitions
Stand versions are made to work on a loop, with captions and graphics that read without sound on a busy floor.
-
In talks with partners
A clear film gives prospective partners and investors the same picture of your company, whoever presents it.

We talk through what the film is for, who will watch it and where it will be shown. You then get a written proposal with scope, schedule and cost.
-
Story and script
We draft the structure, the interview questions and any voiceover, and you approve them before filming is booked.

Filming
Interviews, footage of the work and the premises, planned around your working day to keep disruption low.

You receive a first cut through a private link and send your comments. We make the agreed changes within the review rounds set out in the quote we send you.

Questions
What Clients Usually Ask.
Our staff have never been on camera. Is that a problem?
No, that is normal. We share the topics in advance, ask people to talk rather than read a script, and film in short sections so nobody has to get it right in one go.
How long should the film be?
Long enough to say one thing well. Two to three minutes usually works for a website, and presentations often need less. A longer film can also be cut into short versions.
What affects the cost?
Mainly the number of filming days and locations, the size of the crew, how much graphics or animation is needed, and how many versions you want. The quote we send you lists each of these.
Can you film across several sites?
Yes. Extra sites and travel are planned into the schedule and set out in the quote from the start.
Can the film be updated later?
Usually, as long as the project files are still held. New interviews, figures or logos can be added as a re-edit, which is often simpler than starting again.
What can we do with the finished film?
Use it for your business marketing and communication. The exact rights, including any limits on licensed music, are stated in the quote we send you and in our terms.
