Videography & Content Direction

Video and social content, directed against a commercial objective.

A recognisable library of video and social assets, each with a stated job, produced on planned days.

Who it is for

Businesses that need a steady supply of video and social content, with the thinking done before the camera comes out.

Most businesses do not have a content problem. They have a direction problem: video gets made because a shoot was booked, not because anyone decided what it had to achieve.

Everything below is part of the engagement.

  • Creative directionConcept, look and commercial objective, agreed before the shoot date.
  • Video productionBrand film, short-form and cut-downs sized for their channels.

Before you ask

Questions people actually ask.

Do we need a concept before booking a shoot day?

Yes — that is the point. A day booked without a concept produces material that has to be given a purpose afterwards. The planning comes first and is part of the engagement.

Who owns the finished assets?

Usage and ownership are set out in writing before the first shoot. Ask for the terms — they are not left vague.

Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?

Yes. Where guidelines exist they govern; where they do not, the direction is agreed with you before production.
