Content days in Essex, London and across the UK

A crew, one day, and weeks of content.

We bring the camera, the crew and the questions. You get your place, your products and your people on film, edited and ready to post.

Why a whole day

The content people stop for is the hardest to make yourself

Anyone can find a stock video, and plenty of people can now make one with AI. Nobody else can film your team in your place, talking about the work. That is what customers want to see before they book, buy or follow, and it is the thing a busy business never gets round to filming.

A content day fixes that in one go. We plan it with you, turn up with everything we need, film for a few hours and take the footage away to edit. You get on with your day.

What's in a day

Everything you need from one day

A crew comes to you, films the lot, and edits it into finished posts and ads.

We film on site

We come to your place with the camera, the lights and the sound. Your rooms, your team at work and your customers, where they have agreed to it.

Your products, properly

Close ups that show what a product looks like and how it is used. Shot on the day, in your space, so it looks like you.

Interviews with your team

We bring the questions your customers ask and get your people answering them to camera. One good set-up and fifteen answers gives you fifteen short videos.

The edit

We cut it into finished pieces for Instagram, TikTok and your ads, with captions on. You see it all before anything goes out.

How a day runs

  1. Step 1

    Before the day

    We agree what the footage is for, then write the shot list and the interview questions with you. You choose who is on camera. We send release forms ahead so nobody signs one in a hurry.

  2. Step 2

    On the day

    Amber shoots. Mike directs and runs the interviews, which feel more like a chat than a script. Abbie looks after props, the shot list, the release forms and the photos. You get on with your day around us.

  3. Step 3

    After the day

    Amber edits the footage into finished pieces. You see everything, ask for changes, and post it yourself, or we post it and run ads on it for you each month.

Reels from our content lead

Amber Cannon films and edits our content days. These are Reels she has made for hospitality, retail, beauty, fitness and lifestyle clients. Tap any of them to watch.

The person who edits these is the person behind the camera on your day.

What we need from you

Not much. We handle the planning, the kit and the edit.

A date and a place

Somewhere worth filming, and a morning when it can be quiet for an hour.

People on camera

An owner, a practitioner, a chef or a creator. One confident person goes a long way.

Customers who are happy to appear

Only if you want them in it. We bring the release forms.

Any briefs you have

Brand deals, a launch, a season you need to push. We plan the shots around them.

Need creators as well?

Amber and Abbie are both UGC creators, and our network comes from them. We can cast creators for your content day or source them to film at home on their own.

After the day

Most people post the edits themselves. If you would rather not, we can post it for you, run ads on it and put it on a website that shows it off.

Everything else we do →

Based in Essex, filming across Essex and London, and further afield when the job suits it.

Answers

Questions about content days

A crew comes to your place for half a day or a full day. We film your team, your space and your products, interview your people, and edit it into finished videos and photos for social media and ads.

Half a day or a full day. Most businesses fit what they need into a morning. Brand days with several creators, or shoots across more than one location, usually run longer.

It depends on the day, and we agree the number with you before we book. As a guide, we planned for around 20 pieces on our last half day. Questions to camera are the quickest way to get volume, because one set-up and fifteen answers is fifteen videos.

We agree the turnaround when we book. It depends on how many pieces you need and whether any of them are for a fixed date.

Yes. We can cast creators from our network to appear on the day, or source creators to film at home on their own. Usage is agreed in writing before anyone films.

No. A content day is a piece of work on its own. If you want us to post the footage and run ads on it afterwards, that is agreed separately.

It depends on how long we are there, how many places we film and how much editing you need. You get the figure in writing before you book. The form asks for a rough budget, which lets us tell you straight away whether it works.

We are based in Essex and film across Essex and London most of the time. We go further when the job suits it: our last content day was in Harrogate. Travel outside Essex and London is added to the quote, and you see it before you book.

Tell us what you're working on

Fill in the form and tell us what you're trying to achieve, who you're going after and what you can spend. Mike reads every one and comes back with a straight answer on whether we can help.
