Corporate video production
Corporate video production services for businesses, covering brand films, interviews, internal communications with structured planning and reliable delivery.
Most corporate videos are watched once, by the people who commissioned them, then quietly archived. The reason is usually the same: the brief was 'make us look good' and the result is footage that says nothing specific about the company making it.
We make corporate video production in London that has a reason to exist.
What corporate video production actually involves
There is a version of corporate video production where a crew arrives, films your office and your CEO, and leaves you with a polished video that could belong to any company in your sector. We don't do that version.
Every brief starts with the same question: what do you need this video to do? Generate leads at a product launch. Help a new CEO introduce themselves to staff. Explain a complex service to prospects who won't read a brochure. Give existing clients evidence they made the right choice.
The answer shapes everything - who we interview, where we film, what we cut, how long it runs.

Corporate video projects we've delivered
CEO and executive interviews - We produced an episode of Off The Agenda featuring Baroness Patricia Scotland KC, Commonwealth Secretary-General, in conversation with Sir Charles Bowman, former Lord Mayor of London. The production required a tone that matched the stature of both speakers and their international audience. Getting that tone right is not a camera setting. It's preparation, framing decisions, and knowing when not to cut.
Brand and culture videos - For Cytec, we filmed 7 interviews in a single day featuring both internal team members and client testimonials. The content covered brand values, company culture, and the appointment of a new CEO. After scouting the original location, we recommended moving to a more dynamic setting - a decision that saved the client £800. We delivered 7 complete videos.
Company milestone films - AM Insights commissioned a brand video for their 5-year anniversary. The brief required combining an interview with the founder, client testimonials, and a narrative that acknowledged both the struggles and achievements of building the business. We developed the concept, filmed, and delivered the final video within one week. It premiered at the anniversary event and was shared on LinkedIn, generating audience reactions and new leads for the company.
Staff and office videos - For Luxoft London, we produced a 3-minute corporate video combining six staff interviews with b-roll of the London office, employees at work, and city visuals. Talking-head content that holds attention requires pacing decisions throughout editing, not just good footage. The video communicates clearly who Luxoft is, who they serve, and why it matters.
Partnership and client-facing films - We produced a corporate video for DXC Technology and Luxoft highlighting their 20-year partnership with Murex. The film featured interviews with key executives including the EMEA Director of Trading & Risk Solutions, combined with b-roll of the London office. It covers collaboration, cloud integration, and long-term expertise in financial services - complex subject matter that needed to be made watchable without being simplified.
Healthcare and educational video series - We filmed six videos for Albatross Healthcare in a single day, including five explainers and a company introduction featuring the founder. Each video addressed the value of private healthcare alongside the NHS. With a talking-head format and one shooting day, we used dynamic slider shots to add visual movement throughout, delivering a clean, professional series that communicates the company's message without ambiguity.
What one filming day can produce
Clients often underestimate how much can come from a single well-planned shoot.
For Cytec, that meant 7 complete videos. For Albatross Healthcare, six. For AM Insights, a complete brand film. Planning determines this, not luck. Before filming, we know exactly how many setups are needed, in what order, and how long each will take. We don't film and hope.
This matters for budget. A disorganised shoot that runs over costs more and produces less. A well-structured day produces more content than most clients expect.

Corporate video formats we produce
Brand story films
60 to 90 seconds for social and website use. Covers who you are, who you serve, and why the work matters. Built on interview content but driven by narrative, not Q&A structure.
Executive interviews
Single or multi-subject. Works for thought leadership content, internal communications, and stakeholder updates. We handle technical setup so your subject focuses on what they're saying, not the camera.
Staff and culture videos
For recruitment, internal communications, and demonstrating company values with evidence rather than claims. Real employees saying specific things about real experiences land differently than a script.
Client testimonials
The most credible content you can produce. We structure testimonial interviews to surface specific problems solved and specific outcomes achieved. Vague praise is useless. We ask the questions that produce useful answers.
Explainer and product videos
or services or products that need visual demonstration. Works particularly well where the written alternative would require three paragraphs to convey what 30 seconds of footage makes obvious.
Partnership and case study films
Documents a client relationship, project outcome, or joint initiative. Used in pitches, on websites, and at industry events. Requires co-ordinating multiple stakeholders - something we've handled across multiple projects.
Multi-video series
Planned upfront, filmed efficiently, delivered as a coherent set. More cost-effective than commissioning individual videos. Useful for onboarding materials, service explanations, and ongoing thought leadership content.
Planning, logistics, and the decisions
that affect quality
Location decisions matter. We scout before we film. If a location won't serve the video, we say so and propose alternatives. This is not a delay - it prevents expensive reshoots.
Crew size should match the brief. We scale the crew to the project: a solo operator for a single executive interview, a full team with producer, dual camera operators, gaffer, and sound engineer for complex multi-subject shoots. Overstaffing wastes your budget. Understaffing creates compromises in the edit.
Audio is not optional. Poor sound makes technically good footage unusable. We bring professional audio equipment - wireless lapel mics, boom operators, backup recording - to every shoot where clear voice capture matters.
B-roll is planned, not improvised. The footage between interview clips determines the pace and visual interest of the final edit. We agree what b-roll is needed before arriving on set, so the filming day produces what the edit actually requires.
Corporate video production London: delivery timelines
Standard corporate video delivery runs 7 to 14 working days from filming, depending on edit complexity and number of outputs.
If you have a specific deadline - a board presentation, a product launch, a conference - we plan the shoot and edit schedule backwards from that date. For the AM Insights anniversary video, the final cut was delivered three days after filming to meet the premiere date. That requires a clear brief and efficient production, not just speed in the edit suite.

We deliver files in whatever format your team or platform requires. If you have an in-house editor or agency handling distribution, we provide organised, labelled footage ready for their workflow.
Working with existing agencies or teams
Some clients come to us directly. Others have an agency handling their broader marketing who needs a production crew for specific projects.
We work both ways. We follow brand guidelines, deliver to agency briefs, and format footage to match existing content where continuity matters. The Andrey Movchan interview is a clear example: we were given reference stills and tasked with matching the lighting style and visual tone of footage filmed by a separate team in another country. The final result was visually consistent between both sides of the conversation.
If you have a brief, brand guidelines, or an existing video format to match, share them with us before we discuss the project.

Corporate video production pricing
Corporate video production is priced on the specifics of the project. The variables that affect cost are:
- Number of filming days required
- Crew size and specialist equipment needed
- Number of final videos or edits required
- Delivery timeline
- Location and travel requirements
- Post-production complexity (motion graphics, colour grade, subtitles, multiple formats)
FAQ
How long should our corporate video be?
t depends on where it lives and what it needs to do. Homepage brand films typically run 60 to 90 seconds. Executive interviews used for thought leadership can run 3 to 5 minutes. Internal communications and training videos often run longer. We'll advise on length based on your platform and audience during the brief stage - not after filming.
Do we need to write a script?
For interview-based content, no. We structure interviews to surface the information you need in natural, usable language. For scripted pieces such as voiceover-led explainers, we can write or work from a script you provide.
Can you film at multiple locations in one day?
Yes, within reason. We plan multi-location days carefully to make them efficient. Travel between locations eats into filming time, so we advise on whether the visual benefit justifies the logistics.
What if our subject isn't comfortable on camera?
Most people aren't initially. We run brief warm-up conversations before filming begins and ask questions in a way that produces natural answers rather than rehearsed statements. The Albatross Healthcare founder had no prior on-camera experience. The series communicates clearly and professionally.
How many rounds of revisions are included?
Two rounds of revisions are included as standard. Significant changes to structure or content beyond this are quoted separately. Clear communication at the brief stage reduces the likelihood of substantial revisions.
Do you retain rights to the footage?
All footage rights transfer to you upon final payment. We may request permission to include the project in our portfolio, which you can decline.
Can you produce videos in languages other than English?
Yes. We've filmed interviews in multiple languages and can coordinate subtitling or on-screen translation for multilingual outputs.
Why do London video production quotes vary so much?
Corporate video production in London typically costs £3,000–£6,000 for a single filming day producing 3-5 videos, including editing and delivery. Multi-video series are more cost-effective per video than individual commissions. Final cost depends on crew size, filming days, edit complexity, and delivery timeline. We provide clear written quotes before any work begins.
How long does corporate video production take in London?
Standard corporate video production takes 7-14 working days from filming to final delivery. Rush turnarounds are possible - the AM Insights anniversary video was delivered 3 days after filming. Timeline depends on edit complexity, number of outputs, and revision cycles. We plan backwards from your deadline.
