Filmmaking

Bring life to your communications

Film is the most powerful means of communication available. Film is convincing and will rapidly get people to buy into (and remember) your message. Our short documentaries cut through the smog of information overload.

We have been shooting and editing in high definition for over two years.  Final output can range from the big screen to the iPod. You can have different edits for different purposes, and it can be available 24/7 on the web

We’ve developed a fast-moving tightly edited style ideally suited to the Internet and to busy people. Audiences are savvy and perceptive. For that reason we much prefer to shoot at relevant locations. This lets the audience see, hear and feel the topic. Believability is a big plus.

How we work:

  • The process starts with an open meeting to discuss your objectives and how they can be translated into a great short film made for a realistic budget.
  • A further meeting follows to firm up on the details.
  • The filming day/s. We supply everything required. We can coax good performances out of people who haven’t had media training; we’ll shoot cutaways and all the necessary footage.
  • We edit the footage into a snappy, coherent film to meet the objectives agreed at our meetings. Then we do the technical stuff - colour correct the picture, balance the audio.
  • Edits are sent to you for approval
  • We output the film; in any format you require, for distribution to your audience.

This film is the result of a two-year health-care study. There's a lot more to filmmaking than passively recording events. In this case, however, the people were based all over the UK, but came together for a conference in London - so we filmed there. DVDs were placed on the back page of the final study report. The film gives the overview, the report the detail. Healthcare study button
