Single-Day Shooting

Execution-Only Capture

Single-Day Shooting is a straightforward filming or photography option for projects that are already planned and structured.

It’s designed for creators, teams, and organisations who know what they need to capture and are looking for professional, reliable execution on the day.

This format focuses on clean capture and efficient delivery rather than creative development or narrative shaping.

What’s included

  • One short pre-production alignment call
    (to confirm schedule, shot list, and logistics)

  • One full day of filming or photography
    Up to 8 hours on location

  • Professional camera and basic lighting setup

  • Light colour correction on selected footage or images

Best suited for

  • Events with a clear running order

  • Pre-planned content shoots

  • Talks, performances, and live moments

  • Teams with an existing creative plan who need execution support

What this does not include

  • Creative direction or concept development

  • Content or marketing strategy

  • Narrative or story-led editing

  • Multiple locations

  • Social media formatting, posting, or optimisation

If you’re looking for shaped edits or defined deliverables, a Content Capture Day is likely a better fit.

Any editing beyond light colour correction is scoped separately.

A Note on Scope

We work with clear boundaries to protect quality and delivery.

Additional filming time, locations, or deliverables are always discussed and scoped as a separate production.

Production Allocation

Delivery-Based Monthly Production

Production Allocation is a delivery-based monthly format for clients who need regular production or editing support without entering an open-ended retainer.

Clients reserve a fixed amount of production capacity per month, delivered as clearly defined outputs.

This format prioritises consistency and clarity over availability or access.

How it works

  • A fixed production allocation is agreed in advance

  • Deliverables are defined at the start of each month

  • Work is completed within the agreed allocation

  • Each month is treated as a standalone production window

What this can include

Depending on the agreed allocation:

  • Editing of existing footage

  • Short-form video delivery

  • Finishing work on filmed material

  • Occasional capture days (if agreed in advance)

What this is not

  • Not unlimited work

  • Not on-demand availability

  • Not content strategy or marketing management

  • Not performance or growth optimisation

Commitment

  • Minimum term: 3 months

  • Allocation reviewed monthly

  • Scope remains fixed for the duration

Pricing

Pricing is based on the agreed monthly allocation and deliverables.

Production Allocation is offered selectively and discussed on a project-by-project basis.

Post-Production Editing

Editorial Finishing

Post-Production Editing is a focused editing service for projects that have already been filmed and require professional shaping, pacing, and finishing.

This service is best suited to clients who have existing footage and need a clear, editorially sound final output.

What’s included

  • Editorial review of supplied footage

  • Narrative structuring and pacing

  • Clean picture edit

  • Basic colour correction

  • Audio balancing

  • One round of revisions

What this works well for

  • Interview edits

  • Short-form content

  • Event or documentary footage

  • Projects filmed elsewhere that need professional finishing

What this is not

  • Content strategy or planning

  • Ongoing content production

  • Platform-specific optimisation

  • Thumbnails, captions, or posting

Pricing

  • £300 per full editing day

  • £150 per half editing day

All editing is scoped based on footage volume and complexity.

    (Zoom or in person, where available)
