A clear way to begin, before anything bigger.
The Pilot Session is a single, fixed-price way to try Lumira. One planned day of filming becomes finished, publish-ready content within three weeks, so you can see the work before committing to anything bigger. It asks very little of your team’s time.
One session becomes a hero film and a run of short-form social videos, eight to ten in all. Every number is on this page.
See what one session becomes.
One session with our team: planned together, filmed in a single day on site, and turned into a hero film and a run of short-form social videos, eight to ten in all, with a plan for the sixty days after. A real sample of how we work, at a fixed price, before any longer commitment.
Our side of it. Every session delivers the finished, publish-ready content we agreed, or the next one is on us.
Two a month, at most. Each Pilot Session gets the planning and the finishing it needs, so we cap them rather than book out the calendar.
One per business. The Pilot Session is for new clients, and each business can book it once. It carries the full session, photography included, at a price we could not offer twice.
A hero film and a run of social videos, for £3,500.
A hero film plus eight to ten short-form social videos: filmed in a single day, then edited, captioned and graded to one consistent look, delivered ready to publish with a sixty-day posting plan.
A brand film on its own is typically £5,000 or more. Here you get the film and the social videos together, for a fixed £3,500, everything included.
We credit £1,750, half the fee, against your first six months. So going on, the Pilot has effectively cost you around £1,750.
One planned day of your time; we handle the rest. Stop after the Pilot and everything we made is yours to keep.
A filming session in progressThe content system, month to month.
If the Pilot Session proves the approach, this is how it continues: a steady rhythm of sessions and publishing, priced as a system rather than a day rate. Three levels, depending on how much you want us to carry. Most clients settle at Authority.
- Four sessions a year
- Around 25 to 30 finished videos a year, with matched photography
- Planning and a published posting rhythm
- Everything in Foundation
- Six sessions a year
- Six main feature films plus 45 to 50 short-form videos a year
- We manage up to three of your social accounts
- Everything in Authority
- A sales funnel, built and run
- Ad management
- Sales videos produced
- Monthly reviews
What continuing involves. A one-off setup of £2,500 covers the strategy and content plan. Most clients pay monthly: the first payment covers your first two months plus the setup, £8,500 at Foundation, and it is simply monthly from there. Prefer to pay for the year up front and the setup is waived, with twelve months for the price of eleven. We set it out here so nothing surfaces for the first time on a call.
We ask for six months at the start because content compounds, and judging it on month two would measure the system before it has had a fair chance to work. After that the agreement simply rolls on, and you can end it at any time with two months’ notice. It is built so you stay because the work is earning its keep, never because a contract says you must.
These are starting points. Larger scopes, more sessions or multiple sites are priced to fit, and we are always happy to shape it around you.
Where conversion sits. On Foundation and Authority we build the presence, a consistent, quality rhythm of content, and your offer and sales team convert the attention it earns. On Pipeline the conversion layer becomes part of our job too: we build and run the funnel, manage the ads, produce the sales videos and review the numbers with you every month.
What a year actually costs, in full.
Foundation is £3,000 a month: £36,000 over a year, or £33,000 all in paid annually with the setup waived. We would rather you did that sum here than at your desk later. What the number buys is output. A year of Foundation produces 25 to 30 finished pieces, planned, filmed, edited and published, which works out at roughly £1,200 to £1,450 per finished piece. A single commissioned brand film is typically £5,000 to £15,000, and it is one piece. A full-time hire costs a salary plus employer costs, kit, software and management time, and everything then rests on one person’s week.
If the yearly number feels like more than your business needs just now, that is a useful thing to know early, with no harm done. The Pilot Session stands on its own, and you are always welcome to come back to the rest when the timing is right.
