Video and Photography

The problem it solves

Service: Video and Photography  ·  Best for: companies whose buyers can’t visit the lab  ·  Includes: hero film, audience edits, founder interview, stills library  ·  Tags: Film / Photography

Most of the people who will decide your company’s future might never stand in your facility. They’ll evaluate you from documents, a website and whatever they can find, and none of those show a machine actually running or a founder explaining the work in plain terms.

Good video carries trust across that distance, and it keeps working through a long cycle: a buyer who watched your film in March still remembers you in September, and a two-minute video travels around a buying committee far more easily than you do.

The most common problem with deep tech videos are that they are either too complicated, not polished enough, don’t get made with commercialisation in mind and become outdated over time as things change in the business.

We take a different approach and plan any video work we do with longevity, commercialisation and value in mind.

What’s included

  • A hero film plus a shorter edit for each buyer type, all from one shoot
  • A founder interview filmed as a conversation: no scripts, questions agreed in advance, stumbles reset and cut
  • Facility footage and a full stills library from the same days
  • Shoot planning built around the questions you answer on repeat, so the clips double as sales answers

Before the shoot we sit down and list the questions your team answers over and over: how it works, how it fits an existing setup, what the first month looks like, how it compares to what the buyer does now. Each one gets answered on camera by the person who answers it best, and each answer becomes its own short clip. That list is why one shoot turns into a working library rather than a single film.

You’re a small team and the library of videos (instead of a one off overall video) changes how enquiries get handled. A lead asks how the technology fits their production line, and instead of a founder spending an evening writing the same long email again, someone sends the two-minute clip where your engineer walks through it. The lead gets a better answer faster, and your team gets their time back. Between campaigns, the same clips run as LinkedIn posts, so the company stays visible without anyone writing new content every week.

We bring a small crew so it’s not intimidating or invasive and lets your team carry on working so you don’t lose a whole day.

If your story is still unsettled, we’d rather you fixed that before filming, because a film made on a shifting story dates the moment the positioning moves. That conversation is free and happens on the first call.

Video is a non-negotiable in the modern world. It’s especially important in deep tech where you need to clearly and simply explain your technology to buyers and investors.Sam Stratton, founder

Between campaigns, the same clips run as LinkedIn posts, so the company stays visible without anyone writing new content every week.

Each question your team answers on repeat gets answered on camera and becomes its own short clip — the two-minute answer instead of the long email.
