Promotional Video Production in Hertfordshire

Promotional video that turns attention into enquiries.

Promotional video production in Hertfordshire that presents your brand's ethos, vision and value in minutes, and is built to turn viewers into customers.

Where this fits

A promotional video earns attention. What happens next decides whether it earns revenue. We plan promotional work alongside the distribution and the conversion path, so the views turn into enquiries rather than stopping at the play count.

Most first projects start from £3,500, the fixed price of a Pilot Session.

Selected promotional film

Trekinetic, the all-terrain wheelchair built in Britain.

What this covers

Attention on its own does not win the work.

Promotional videos engage, inform and inspire action. We make them as part of a plan: who sees the film, where, and what they do next.

Brand story films

Who you are, what you stand for, why it matters. The film people remember.

Product and service promos

The value of what you sell, made obvious and compelling.

Campaign and launch films

A centrepiece asset for the moment that matters most.

Social-first cutdowns

Platform-native versions so the campaign works in the feed, not just on the website.

What we hear first

The things that come up on almost every promotional film.

None of these are unusual, and all of them are easier to deal with once they are named at the start.

01

The film goes live and then stops

A promotional film goes on the homepage, gets posted once and then sits there. The work that went into it deserves a longer run than a single week of attention, and what usually decides that is the planning around the film rather than the film itself.

02

One film is asked to do every job

The same three-minute film ends up on the website, on the exhibition stand, in the ad and on LinkedIn. Each of those places wants something different, and a film built for one of them rarely does the job in the others.

03

What makes you different is hard to put into words

The reason people choose you is obvious to everyone inside the business and much harder to explain to someone hearing about you for the first time. The problem we see most often is a film full of accurate statements that still leaves a new viewer unsure what to do with them.

How it works

One session, and enough finished film to post for months.

One planned filming session gives you a hero film and a run of short films for social, eight to ten pieces in all, with video and photography captured together on the same visit. Everything is delivered within 21 days and arrives with a sixty-day posting plan, so the work has somewhere to go once it lands. The Pilot Session is GBP 3,500.

The hero film, the short films and the footage behind them are yours, to use on your website, in ads, at events and in recruitment, without coming back to us for additional usage fees.

How it runs

What a promotional film actually involves.

The first thing most people ask is how much of their own time this takes, and how much they are expected to work out in advance. Here is how a session is put together.

01

We work out what the film has to say

We start with a conversation about who the film is for and what they need to understand by the end of it. You do not need a brief or a script ready beforehand, because working that out is part of what you are paying for.

02

One session, planned down to the hour

Before we arrive we agree a shot list and a running order, so people know when they are needed and for how long. Most of the team carry on with their day and step in only for the parts that involve them.

03

Nobody has to be a presenter

Most of the people we film have never done it before. We ask questions instead of handing out scripts, and in practice the line that ends up in the film is usually one somebody says without realising we will use it.

04

A first cut to comment on, then a plan for where it goes

You see a first cut with time to give feedback, and the finished pieces are delivered within 21 days. They come with a sixty-day posting plan, so there is somewhere for each piece to go rather than a folder of files waiting for someone to decide what to do with them.

Work includes Trekinetic, the British-made all-terrain wheelchair, Timber Connection and Kawai UK.

A simple way to start

Start with one film, and see how far it travels.

£3,500one filming session

The clearest way to know whether this works is to try it once. A Pilot Session is one filming session at your site or on location, with video and photography captured together. We turn it into a hero film and a run of short films for social, delivered within twenty-one days. If you continue with us within sixty days, half the fee, £1,750, is credited against your first six months. Every number, and the monthly plans, are on the pricing page.

Common questions

Good to know.

How much does a promotional video cost?
A Pilot Session is £3,500, and it covers one filming session with video and photography captured together, giving you a hero film and a run of short films for social, eight to ten pieces in all. On larger projects the cost moves mainly with how many filming days you need, how many locations are involved, and whether the film calls for scripted scenes, actors, animation or original music. We are based in Ware, Hertfordshire and work across Hertfordshire, London and the rest of the UK, so travel only becomes a real factor on longer trips. If you continue with us within sixty days, half the fee, £1,750, is credited against your first six months.
How long does it take to make a promotional video?
Everything from a Pilot Session is delivered within 21 days of the filming session. Before that, it is worth allowing a week or two for planning, because we need to agree what the film has to do, who is going on camera and where we are filming. We take on two Pilot Sessions a month, so the start date depends on what is free when you get in touch. If you have a launch or an event to hit, mention it on the first call and we will work backwards from that date.
How much of our time does making a promotional video take?
The filming is usually a single session, and the edit needs a round of feedback from you. The planning is where most of your time goes. Working out what the film has to say, who it is speaking to and how the story is told normally takes more than one conversation, often several across a few weeks, and longer where the business or the message is complicated. We bring the questions and the production thinking, though the substance has to come from you, so it works as a shared effort rather than something handed over. It helps to have one person who can gather feedback and sign things off.
Who owns the finished promotional video, and where can we use it?
You own the finished films and photographs, and there is no separate usage fee for putting them on your website, your social accounts, your sales emails, screens in your building or an exhibition stand. The one thing worth checking is music, which is licensed for the uses agreed at the outset, so if you later want to run the film as a paid advert at scale the licence may need upgrading, and we will tell you before that happens. We do ask to show the work in our own portfolio, and if you would rather we did not, that is not a problem.
What gives a promotional video the best chance of bringing in enquiries?
Most of it comes down to planning the filming session around where the films are going to be used, and being clear about what someone should do after watching. What usually happens is that a single film gets posted once, does its rounds for a week and then sits still, so we plan the session to produce a hero film and a run of shorter pieces that can keep appearing over the following couple of months. We also look at where each piece will sit, whether the person watching has an obvious next step to take, and whether the film makes it clear what your company actually does. No film can be promised to bring in enquiries, because that depends as much on your offer and on who ends up seeing it.
What if nobody on our team is comfortable being on camera?
It is not a problem, and it is one of the questions we are asked most often. Plenty of promotional videos work without anyone speaking to camera, built around the product, the process, the people at work and a voiceover or on-screen text. Where somebody is speaking, we agree the questions in advance and film it as a conversation, then edit around the moments that did not land. Most people settle once the first few questions are out of the way.
