Corporate video production London
Corporate video production in London delivering professional, on-brand content for businesses, internal communications, and marketing campaigns
Let’s skip the part where we tell you video is essential in 2025. You already know that. You’ve seen the stats, sat through enough webinars, and watched enough product launches to understand that content moves business forward.
What you might still be wondering is: “What kind of video actually works?”
Because let’s face it - corporate video has a reputation. Too many feel like someone opened PowerPoint, hit record, and dropped royalty-free ukulele in the background. And yet, the stakes for getting it right keep climbing. The content you put out is now the face of your company - whether it’s being sent to investors, new hires, or thousands of people scrolling LinkedIn on mute.
That’s why corporate video production isn’t about fancy lenses or drone shots over Canary Wharf. It’s about clarity, structure, and trust all communicated in under three minutes.

So what is corporate video in 2025?
It used to mean talking heads in office chairs. Now? It could be anything.
It might be a behind-the-scenes look at your latest product. Or a series of customer testimonials designed to soften the sales pitch. It could be internal messages from your leadership team - shot cleanly, with warmth and clarity - or recap edits from a multi-day conference across five breakout rooms.
We’ve worked on all of the above:

We’ve worked on all of the above:
- Emotional client stories (like the Cytec project, featuring stakeholders from Rolls Royce plc and Currys plc)
- Strategic product messaging (for fintech teams expanding across Europe)
- Fast-paced highlight edits from events like Fast Growth Icons in London, Manchester, and Berlin
What makes a corporate video actually land?
You’ve probably said something like “Let’s keep it professional and sharp” on a call before. That’s a good instinct. But professional doesn’t mean stiff. Sharp doesn’t mean forgettable.
What we’ve seen work best is always rooted in the same three things:
People-first storytelling
You can rattle off statistics or product features - but it won’t mean anything unless there’s a human element. A good video brings in faces, tone, and natural speech. It sounds like someone you trust, not a brand trying to sound like every other brand.
Structure
People are busy. If your message doesn’t land in the first 15 seconds, it’s already too late. Whether it’s a 90-second explainer or a 5-minute panel recap, clear structure wins: a strong intro, one focused message, and a finish that signals exactly what the viewer should think or feel.
Cinematic control, not overproduction
We shoot with cinema-quality gear - but the goal is always subtle polish, not spectacle. Think: great lighting that doesn’t distract, rich sound, thoughtful cuts. The sweet spot is a film that looks expensive because it’s well made, not because it’s trying too hard.

What corporate clients in London often get wrong
Here’s where we usually step in - not to fix problems, but to reframe the process.
We’ve worked with huge multinationals and growing startups alike, and the patterns are always the same.
Some try filming in big, echoey boardrooms with grey walls, thinking it will look “professional.” In one case, we saved a client £800 just by switching to a smaller, more vibrant room with natural light. It looked ten times better - and required half the gear.
Others try to squeeze too much into one video: investor messaging, client testimonials, employer branding, social media content… all in two minutes. That never works. The strongest videos have a single goal. Split your messaging into multiple deliverables and you’ll get far better results - without spending more.

And yes, there’s the classic handoff to the intern. Now, we love working with junior marketers, but when your company is investing thousands in content, someone senior needs to be looped in - especially at the start. A quick call with your comms lead can save hours later in the edit.
What it was like filming for Cytec
Here’s an example of what goes into getting it right.
When we filmed for Cytec, we weren’t just rolling up with a camera and hoping for the best. The client was announcing a major internal change and showcasing testimonials from high-profile partners like Rolls Royce plc, Currys plc, and Aviva. That meant high stakes, tight timelines, and no room for error.
We brought in a full team of six:
A producer to manage logistics and communication, a director of photography to lead camera and visuals, a gaffer for lighting, a sound engineer to make sure every word was clean and clear, a makeup artist to prepare speakers who aren’t used to being on camera, and a DIT to manage backups and file integrity.
We helped scout the location and ultimately recommended a brighter room that saved budget and looked far better on screen. We filmed seven interviews in one day, using a three-camera setup to allow for cutaways and edits without needing multiple takes.
Cytec’s comms team later told us this was the most effective content they’d ever produced. That’s what a properly built corporate video production day can deliver.

What it costs (let’s talk numbers)
In London, a professionally shot and edited corporate video typically costs between £2,500 and £10,000. Most of our clients fall between £3,500–£5,500 for a full-day shoot with a tailored edit.
The range comes down to:
- How many shoot days you need
- Crew size and complexity
- Gear (basic kit vs cinema-grade camera setup)
- Editing needs (graphics, subtitles, motion, etc.)
- Deliverables (a single video or multiple formats for different platforms)
We also offer bundle pricing for clients who want regular content - monthly, quarterly, or by campaign.
What you actually get working with us
We don’t do bloated processes. You’ll get:
- Real planning help: we help you figure out what’s worth filming (and what’s not)
- Smart location advice: we make your office look cinematic - or recommend better spaces
- A proper film crew, minus the agency overhead: DOP, sound, lighting, camera assistants, director or producer when needed
- Fast communication and updates. No chasing.
- Subtitled and formatted versions ready for internal use, social media, or global teams
- First drafts quickly - because we know timelines change
Is it worth it?
That depends on what you want from the video. If you're just ticking a box for compliance or filler content, you probably don’t need us.
But if the goal is clarity, trust, and impact - if this video will represent your brand or leadership - then working with a team that knows how to guide you through the process is worth every penny.
We don’t just film. We think alongside you. We ask better questions. And we show up with the right people, in the right roles, to make something that works now and still holds up a year from now.

FAQ
How much does a corporate video cost in London?
The cost of a corporate video in London typically starts from £1,800 for a basic shoot, with larger projects involving scripting, multiple locations, extra crew, or editing ranging between £3,000 and £10,000+. The final price depends on scope, complexity, and turnaround time.
What do I need to prepare for a corporate video shoot?
Before filming, it’s helpful to have a clear goal, a basic script or outline, and the right people scheduled to appear on camera. We’ll guide you through shot planning, locations, and how to make your team feel confident on the day.
Can you make one video work for multiple audiences?
Yes. We often film and edit content in a way that allows for multiple versions - for internal comms, LinkedIn, YouTube, or landing pages. With thoughtful planning, the same footage can be cut to suit different audiences and platforms.
Are corporate videos worth the money?
A well-made corporate video helps explain what your company does, builds trust with clients and investors, and supports long-term brand positioning. When used across multiple touchpoints (web, socials, events), the return often outweighs the cost.
What does a good corporate video look like?
A strong corporate video is clear, concise, and professionally shot. It reflects your brand tone, speaks directly to your audience, and balances polished visuals with a human, relatable tone. Often, it’s not flashy - it’s honest and well-structured.
