Social media videographer for Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn
Social media video production in London
We Stream is a London video and photo production company that makes social media video for brands: Reels, TikToks, Stories and short ads, filmed and edited by our own crew. A single edited Reel starts at £900.
Every shoot is planned for where the video will run: vertical or horizontal, with or without captions, the hook in the first seconds. All packages are on our social media content prices page.

Social video
What we film
Eight kinds of social content, each with its own way of shooting. Every example is a real project.
- 01
Influencer and talent content
YSL Beauty with Lucy Davies, Lancôme's BAFTA Get Ready With Me with Millie Mackintosh delivered the same day, and Hoyeon Jung getting ready for the BAFTA Awards.
- 02
Campaigns and activations
Heineken's scripted phone-case film with Margot Lee: a lively social setting, a natural feel, filmed in one morning and co-posted by the brand.
- 03
Brand stories for social
NOA's founder walking through London in her own voice, built for how Instagram is watched: in motion, with or without sound.
- 04
Product videos
Sunday Riley's skincare films, one formula or routine per video, made over three days alongside the brand's photography.
- 05
Launch coverage
Max Factor with Priyanka Chopra, Rebecca Vallance × Nicky Hilton at Gaia Mayfair, and John Richmond's show edited by 5am.
- 06
Street campaigns
Rouje's posters across London, with a model in the dress from the ad walking past her own campaign and blending into it.
- 07
Behind the scenes
Natalia Tomash's seaside workshop: the teaching moments and the way the group worked together, with the setting as part of the story.
- 08
iPhone and lo-fi
A social video for The Pelican Group filmed entirely on iPhone, because their creative direction asked for something spontaneous.
Platform by platform
Cut for where it runs
Each platform rewards something different, so the format is agreed before the shoot rather than cropped afterwards. We deliver 9:16, 1:1 and 16:9 from the same shoot.
- Instagram Reels and Stories
Vertical, often under 30 seconds. Heineken's film had no subtitles on purpose, so it read in Margot Lee's own voice.
- TikTok
The hook has to land in the first two or three seconds and most videos work best under 30 seconds, so the shot list starts with the opening.
- LinkedIn
Horizontal or square, with subtitles, because most people watch on mute. Event recaps, founder clips and short interviews suit it well.
- YouTube Shorts and paid ads
The same vertical master with different lengths and safe areas, plus a 16:9 version when the campaign also runs on the website.
Turnaround
How fast it comes back
- Single Reel or a half day of Reels3 days
- Full day, 8 to 10 videos5 days
- Series of 16 to 24 videos7 days
- Same-day recap, planned before the shoot+£400
- Extra vertical cutdown of a finished video£150
Working days. Reels and production days come back faster than our 7-day standard for longer films, because social edits are short and the formats are fixed before we film. If you have a posting schedule, we plan delivery around it.

Content creation for brands
A production team that thinks like a creator
Brands looking for a content creator in London usually need two things at once: content that feels native to the feed, and a crew that can handle talent, a venue and a deadline. Four launches we covered:
Max Factor × Priyanka Chopra
The London launch of her Max Factor collection, from the preparations backstage to the unveiling on stage.
Short-form edits the same dayAMI Paris
The opening of the London store, followed through the brand's billboards on Tottenham Court Road and London buses.

What social video costs
A single activation filmed and delivered the same day is a different job to a three-day product series. Each is priced on the work: a single Reel starts at £900, and a same-day activation at £1,300.

- 2 to 3 hours, one location

VAT will be added where applicable. Multi-video days cost less per video than single commissions. Talent, studio and styling are passed through at cost. Every package and add-on is on our social media content prices page.
How much does social media video production cost in London?
A single Reel starts at £900, a half day producing four to five videos at £1,800, and a full production day with eight to ten videos at £3,500. A product or campaign series of 16 to 24 videos over two to three shoot days runs £6,500 to £9,000. Same-day delivery adds £400 for one recap, so a single activation filmed and delivered the same day starts at £1,300. VAT will be added where applicable.
How quickly do you deliver social media videos?
A single Reel or a half day turns around in 3 working days, a full production day in 5, and a series of 16 to 24 videos in 7. Reels and production days come back faster than our 7-day standard for longer films, because social edits are short and the formats are agreed before the shoot.
How many videos can you make from one shoot day?
A half day usually produces four to five videos, and a full production day eight to ten finished videos, each with versions for the platforms you post on. Larger sets are planned across several days. Multi-video days cost less per video than single commissions.
Do you provide vertical and horizontal versions?
Yes. We deliver 9:16 vertical, 1:1 square and 16:9 horizontal from the same shoot. If you know upfront which formats you need, we frame for them while filming rather than cropping horizontal footage into portrait afterwards.
Do you work with influencers and talent directly?
Yes. We filmed Lucy Davies's evening Get Ready With Me for YSL Beauty with a one-person crew in two hours, Margot Lee's scripted ad for Heineken, and a group of influencers touring Stamford Bridge for Fury Energy and Chelsea FC.
Do you offer monthly retainers for ongoing content?
Yes. One shoot day and six edited videos a month is £3,000, and two shoot days and twelve edited videos is £5,500. Retainers have a three-month minimum, are invoiced monthly, and unused days do not roll over.
What is included in the price?
A producer on every project, on set for larger shoots and remotely for smaller ones, two rounds of revisions, £5 million public liability insurance, held separately by each of our lead operators, and footage backed up before we leave the shoot. Talent, studio hire, styling and music licences are passed through at cost and agreed before booking.
Can you work as a content creator for our brand?
Yes. We are a production team rather than a solo creator, so we can handle talent, a venue and a deadline while keeping the content native to the feed: launches for Max Factor, AMI Paris and Tommy Hilfiger were filmed this way.
