We provided a team to shoot footage of Laura Sayers, an illustrator and paper artist, for Skillshare. Skillshare subsequently edited the footage into an educational film for their platform. Our filming approach involved capturing Laura's creative process from four distinct angles to ensure a comprehensive view of her work.

We also arranged a multicam set up to allow a remote director in the US to watch and comment throughout the filming days. An autopole allowed us to achieve top down shots without getting in the way of other angles.

Let's demystify the process of video production. We estimate this example to cost around £9.5-10.5k because we logged roughly:

4 days of production management which is low as we just covered an activity that was organised by our client. As a ballpark we estimate 1/2 day management per day of shoot and edit. This could be higher for complex projects or lower if you can help with the creative or coordination. This includes scheduling, edit supervision and producing documentation such as risk assessments.

2 day shoot which means there must have been things that could not all be fit into fewer days. Filming is priced at a day rate for crew and equipment so we always aim to film as much as we can on a single day. This is not always possible due to location/participant availability.

4 cameras used as one camera is often sufficient but we would suggest additional when there's multiple processes/people that need to be filmed at the same time or if we need to capture multiple angles of the same thing that we can't simply repeat.

We recorded audio as adding a Producer to the shoot to coordinate interviews, vox pops and other audio is a very cost effective way of adding a clear narrative to your films and we are experts at getting relaxed and natural performances.

A top down camera was used to capture cinematic shots. Tripod / handheld shots are effective but where the budget allows the inclusion of an additional crew member with cinematic kit like this (eg a slider / crane / drone) can really elevate the production value.

We did not edit this film and footage was delivered to our client after the shoot.
