About us

A small Bristol team telling big engineering stories

Hi, I'm Tom

I started We Make Films in Bristol in 2021. Since then we've filmed on factory floors, live sites and in boardrooms for companies like Virgin Media O2, JCB and TATA Steel.

Along the way I noticed the films that did the most for our clients were rarely the glossiest. They were the ones where a real customer explained, in their own words, how a technical company had solved their problem.

So that's what we focus on now: case study films for technology and engineering companies. One clear process, a small experienced crew, and films your sales team will actually use. If you've got a project you're proud of, I'd love to hear about it.

Our approach

Behind the scenes: filming a site manager interview in a grain store

01Challenge

Every good case study starts with the problem. We dig into what your customer was up against and why it mattered, so buyers facing the same thing recognise themselves straight away.

02Solution

Next, we show what you did about it. We film your team and your work in action, and explain the technical detail in a way any buyer can follow and any engineer can respect.

Finally, your customer explains what changed, in their own words. Real outcomes from a real customer are what turn a good film into proof that wins work.

What we believe

01 / 04

Your customers say it best

Nobody sells your work better than the people who’ve used it. We just give them the floor.

Stories over specs

Specs inform. Stories persuade.

One film should do lots of jobs

Website, LinkedIn, sales decks, bids and trade shows. We plan every shoot so the footage keeps working long after the first edit.

Technical doesn’t mean boring

We get to grips with the detail so we can tell the story simply. A procurement manager should follow it and a senior engineer should respect it.
