Recruitment Videos
Real people. Real culture. Real reasons to apply.
Your careers page says “dynamic team, fast-paced environment.”
So does everyone else’s.
Let’s show candidates what it actually feels like to work with you.
Because people don’t join job descriptions.
They join people.
We create recruitment videos that bring your culture to life, helping the right people see themselves as part of your team.
Why Recruitment Videos Work
- People watch video. Far more than they read job ads.
- Real stories build trust. Candidates believe your team more than your tagline.
- Better fit, faster hires. You attract the right people and spend less time filtering the wrong ones.
It’s not just about filling roles.
It’s about attracting the kind of people who stay.
What You’ll Get
You’ll receive a short, compelling film that helps candidates say:
“Yes – that’s somewhere I’d want to work.”
Deliverables typically include:
- Planning: We help shape the story, choose team members to feature, and plan filming around your schedule.
- Filming: We capture authentic moments and genuine conversations that show your culture, people, and workplace.
- Editing: We craft a polished, natural-feeling film - complete with branding, music, and subtitles if needed.
Everything’s delivered in the formats you need - ready to share on your careers page, LinkedIn, and internal channels.

If you require a higher level of cover for your project, please let us know.
We understand things can change. We’ll always try to be flexible, but if cancellation or rescheduling happens at short notice, some costs may still apply (e.g. crew fees, location hire). We’ll explain this clearly in your general service agreement.
We’re based in Bristol UK, but we film nationwide and can travel internationally when required. Travel and accommodation costs are agreed upfront.
Most clients request MP4 files optimised for web and social, but we can deliver in ProRes or other professional formats if required. We’ll make sure you get versions that work for your chosen platforms.

Not at all. We’re happy to work from a detailed idea or just a rough outline. Our team can help with creative direction, scripting and storyboarding to make sure the video achieves your goals.
Every project is unique, so costs depend on the scope – things like the number of filming days, crew size, equipment, locations, and the level of post-production (editing, graphics, music, captions). As a guide, smaller testimonial or case study videos start from around £5-10K, while larger multi-day productions are priced individually. Once we’ve discussed your brief, we’ll provide a clear, itemised proposal.
The duration of the video production process can vary significantly depending on several factors such as the complexity of the project, the length of the video, the number of locations involved, and the specific requirements of the shoot.
Typically, a complete production cycle from initial consultation through to final delivery can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months.
Here's a general breakdown:
Pre-production (concept development, scripting, planning): 1-3 weeks
Production (filming): 1-5 days, depending on the project scale
Post-production (editing, revisions): 2-4 weeksWe'll send you an estimated project timeline during the on boarding process.

Additional costs may apply for actors, specialist locations, travel, or multi-language subtitles – but we’ll make that clear before starting.
Every project includes includes two rounds of amendments per deliverable.
To improve efficienty of the feedback process, all comments are made through an online platform where you can annotate directly on the video.
This allows our post-production team to see and address your feedback accurately within the video timeline.
Once your team has consolidated and submitted all feedback, let us know, and we'll begin making the necessary adjustments.
Should further changes be needed beyond the included amendments, any additional work will be subject to an extra fee, which we will quote and agree upon before proceeding.
