Advice and Consultation
We don’t expect our clients to tell us what their film or project is going to be like in advance. It’s our job to help you understand what you need to communicate to your audience and advise you on the best way of saying it. So, we talk. To you, to each other – to make sure we’re all pushing the project as far as we can. Then we plan. We storyboard, we script, we hunt out great locations, we find the right faces, we source the perfect props. So, when the camera’s on, everything’s perfect!
Making Films
When the camera is on, you get to see the team in action. We film on broadcast standard HD (and for the techies, it’s a Sony PDW-700). Depending on the size of the production, you can have a cameraman and producer or a full multi-camera crew with director, jimmy jib, sound, PA, make up and hair.
Post Production
We can do anything from turning a few shots into a simple, but effective piece for the web to all-singing
all-dancing motion graphics extravaganzas. With 3
Avid edit suites, we never miss a deadline!
Television Commercials
We work directly for clients or in partnership with advertising agencies to manage the project. From script writing to script submission to ClearCast, we’ll handle all the tricky bits of getting a commercial approved. And, of course, it goes without saying that we’ll make a darned good, cost effective 30 second film for you too. Take a look at our portfolio.
Managing Your YouTube Presence
Whether or not you’d thought about YouTube, you may as well have your own YouTube channel. Let us help you get it set up. It costs very little and is well worth the exposure. Plus you’ll get linked in with all our other clients too!
Web Video Development
Video on the web is growing fast. Gone are the days of low quality, home-movie style films. Remember, every contact is a marketing opportunity, so you need to make sure that your film exposure on the web is better than your competitors. Let us help you make your mark, by working with our experts.
Green Screen Studio Filming
We have a small green screen studio, ideal for filming you, your staff or a professional presenter. It’s perfect for shooting head to camera, interviews or product shots. And then the footage goes straight into one of the edit suites to be turned into something creative!
Subtitles and British Sign Language
We have a lot of expertise in making programmes for and about deaf people. We work with a number of British Sign Language presenters, subtitles in English and other languages; and produce foreign language dubbed versions of original English films.
Motion Graphics and Effects
2D and 3D graphics animation is an additional service that's available to all our clients. Our experts know how to bring a wow factor to your productions.
Interactive Programmes
Interactivity means lots of different things from having your film divided into several shorter modules on a DVD to having a more complex interaction with a film on a website. Perhaps you want to send a film electronically to your audience and ask for their input or feedback - so use our interactive response form. It's an ever changing and developing market and we are constantly experimenting with new ideas. So, come and have a chat with us and together we'll come up with innovative new ways to talking to audiences.
Presenter Days – A Way of Sharing the Cost with Other Clients
Some clients want web sales tools but don't have much of a budget - especially if they are just dipping a toe in the water of video retailing. So, we've come up with a solution that may help several clients. We'll bring two or three clients together on one day to share the cost of a crew, green screen studio with autocue and professional presenter. Client confidentiality is maintained at all times and each client has a bespoke style for the films. If you're interested in exploring this idea further, give Ian a call on 0115 969 3636.
