Video Content Creation
Video Production in Surrey — Stories That Move People to Act
Turn attention into action with video.
From brand films and product explainers to short social edits and case-study stories, video is the most persuasive way to show what you do and why it matters. Our Surrey-based team handles strategy, scripting, filming and editing to deliver videos that look premium, feel authentic, and drive measurable results—on your website, in ads, and across social.
Why Video Works (and Keeps Working)
Stops the scroll: Motion + story hooks attention faster than text or static images.
Explains complex value: A 60-second demo can replace paragraphs of copy.
Builds trust: Real people and real results create a human connection.
Boosts conversions: Landing pages with video typically see higher engagement and enquiry rates.
Repurpose-friendly: One shoot can fuel your website hero, product pages, ads, emails and social for months.
Graphic idea: a simple “one shoot → many assets” flow showing website hero, product page clip, Instagram Reel, LinkedIn post, YouTube.

Our Video Process (End-to-End)
1) Discovery & Strategy
We’ll define the audience, message, desired action, and where the video will live (homepage, service page, YouTube, ads). We agree success metrics—views, engagement, enquiries, bookings—and choose formats (hero film, cutdowns, vertical reels).
2) Scripting & Storyboarding
We write a concise script and propose a visual treatment: scenes, locations, pacing and music direction. For unscripted pieces, we craft interview prompts and a narrative arc so the story feels natural but focused.
3) Pre-Production
Logistics without the headaches. We handle locations/permits, talent, wardrobe, props, call sheets, and scheduling. You’ll know exactly what we’re capturing and when.
4) Production
On shoot day we keep things smooth and enjoyable. We manage lighting, sound, composition and performance. For product/demo pieces we shoot macro details and practical use to make benefits obvious.
5) Post-Production
Editing, colour, sound, motion graphics, lower-thirds, captions and music licensing. We cut the hero version plus your requested ratios (16:9, 1:1, 4:5, 9:16) and lengths (e.g., 60s, 30s, 15s, 6s).
6) Delivery & Activation
Files arrive in the right formats for web, YouTube, Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok. We can upload, publish, and A/B test thumbnails, titles and hooks—plus embed videos and schema on your site for SEO.
Quality You Can See (and Hear)
Pro cameras & optics: Crisp 4K capture with cinematic lenses for shallow depth of field and clean detail.
Lighting control: Soft key lighting, practical accents and negative fill for consistent, flattering images.
Clean audio: Broadcast-quality microphones and careful room treatment—sound that’s as polished as the picture.
Motion & graphics: Branded lower-thirds, logo stings, stylish captions and simple animations to clarify key points.
Colour & consistency: Professional colour grading to keep skin tones natural and brand colours accurate.
Accessibility & reach: On-screen captions, SRT files, and transcript support for silent autoplay and inclusive viewing.

FAQs
How long should a website video be?
Aim for 45–90 seconds for brand or service overviews. Use cutdowns (6–30s) for social and ads, and 15–45s for FAQ snippets.
Can you help if I’m camera-shy?
Absolutely. We can use voiceover, B-roll and customer soundbites, or capture relaxed, guided interviews that feel natural.
Do you provide scriptwriting and music?
Yes. We handle scripting, storyboarding, voiceover, licensed music, and motion graphics.
What if I need vertical (9:16) videos for Reels/TikTok?
We frame and shoot for multiple ratios from the start, then deliver the edits you need—vertical included.
How quickly will I get the final video?
Typical turnaround: preview in 5–7 working days, final within 10–14 (faster timelines possible).
Can you film in our office or on location?
Yes. We shoot across Surrey (and beyond) with compact, high-quality kit that suits real-world spaces.
Who owns the footage?
You own the final edited videos with broad commercial usage; we detail this in your proposal. Raw footage can be provided on request.
How to Prepare for a Great Shoot
Define the goal: one primary message and a clear CTA (“Book a demo”, “Request a quote”).
Choose a spokesperson or client: someone confident and close to the story.
Tidy the space & prep props: brand colours, product samples, clear surfaces.
Wardrobe: avoid tiny patterns; stick to your brand palette where possible.
Schedule time for B-roll: scenes of your product/service in action make editing stronger.
Gather logos/brand files: for lower-thirds and titles.
