Corporate and Brand Films

Films about your company, its story, values and team.

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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. At exhibitions

    Stand versions are made to work on a loop, with captions and graphics that read without sound on a busy floor.

  4. In talks with partners

    A clear film gives prospective partners and investors the same picture of your company, whoever presents it.

What a Company Film Covers.

Two colleagues being interviewed in an office
History How the company works today and how it got here, told by the people who know it best. Key moments are kept short and tied to what they mean for clients now.
Camera recording a conversation at a table
Values What you stand behind, shown through real work and real decisions rather than statements on a slide. Viewers believe what they can see.
Film set up in an open office
Team The people clients will actually meet, filmed at work and in short, prepared interviews, so a company name gains faces and voices.

Types of film

Choose the Film That Fits the Job.

  • 2 to 3 minutes

    Company overview

    The main film for your website: what you do, who you do it for and how you work.

  • 60 to 90 seconds

    Brand film

    Less about facts, more about character. Built around the values and tone of the company, often with little or no interview.

  • 1 to 3 minutes

    Leadership message

    A director or founder speaking directly to clients or staff, for annual updates, announcements and periods of change.

  • 1 to 2 minutes

    Recruitment and team film

    Your people talking about the work and the workplace, so candidates know what to expect before they apply.

  • 2 to 3 minutes

    Client case study

    A client explains the problem, the work you did and what changed. Useful evidence for sales teams and tenders.

  • Length to suit the topic

    Induction and training

    Clear, repeatable instruction for new starters, safety briefings and internal procedures.

Lengths are a starting point. We agree the right one with you at the brief stage.

How it runs

From First Conversation to Final Film.

  1. First conversation

    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.

  2. Story and script

    We draft the structure, the interview questions and any voiceover, and you approve them before filming is booked.

  3. Preparing the shoot

    We agree locations, a running order for the day and who will appear. Anyone nervous about being filmed can go through the topics with us beforehand.

  4. Filming

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

  5. Edit and review

    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.

  6. Final files

    Colour, sound, captions and titles are finished, and you receive the main film plus any shorter versions.

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.
