Video production in Southwark.

We make documentary brand films, case study videos, social content and photography for businesses across Southwark, from the makers on Bankside to the shops on Lordship Lane. Our Barry Road renovation film was shot in East Dulwich, and we’re a short drive away in South London. Brand films start from £15,000 + VAT.

What we film for Southwark businesses.

Brand films and documentaries

Southwark is full of businesses with a long story behind the counter, from food halls to workshops. We research it and cut it as a film, not an advert. From £15,000 + VAT.

How a film works→

Case study films

A client tells the story of the job in their own words. Our Barry Road film in East Dulwich is one of them.

Case study films→

Social content days

One visit to your kitchen, studio or shop floor, and a batch of short videos and photographs ready to post.

Social content→

Photography and headshots

Team headshots and photographs of the work, taken at your premises or somewhere that says Southwark.

Spotlight shoot→

Places in Southwark that work on camera.

Bankside and the South Bank

The river, Tate Modern and the Oxo Tower studios. Busy, so we shoot early or find a quiet corner.

Borough and Bermondsey

Market stalls, railway arches and the warehouses on Bermondsey Street. Great texture for food and drink.

Peckham

Rye Lane, rooftops and converted industrial spaces. Suits creative studios and independent brands.

Dulwich and East Dulwich

Lordship Lane’s shops, leafy streets and big Victorian houses. Our Barry Road film was shot here.

Questions about filming in Southwark.

The questions businesses ask us most. Anything else, ask us on the call.

Do I need a permit to film in Southwark?

If we’re filming on the street, Southwark wants notice even for a small handheld crew, at least three days, and there’s an admin fee. If we’re filming inside your premises, no council permit is needed. We handle the application when the shoot needs one.

Have you filmed in Southwark before?

Yes. Our Barry Road renovation film was shot in East Dulwich, and we filmed the bespoke shoemakers Carreducker in their workshop at the Oxo Tower on the South Bank.

Are you close to Southwark?

Yes. We’re based in South London, so Peckham, Dulwich and Bermondsey are a short drive, and we can be set up early without the travel eating into the day.

How much does a brand film cost in Southwark?

Our documentary brand films start from £15,000 + VAT, and most land between £15,000 and £25,000 + VAT. Every film is quoted as one fixed figure after a short call, because a one-location film and a multi-location film aren’t the same job. Research, shooting, edit, grade, mix and the full licence are all inside it. If a film isn’t the right spend yet, our one-off Spotlight shoot is £795 + VAT, a Content Day is £1,200 + VAT and case study films start from £2,500 + VAT.

How long does a brand documentary take?

It depends on the scope. A film can take days, weeks or months, from a single location shot in a few days to a story followed over a season. We set the timeline with you on the first call, and most of the quality lives in the part that can’t be rushed: the research before filming and the edit after it.

Can you film social media content for a Southwark business?

Yes. A Content Day is £1,200 + VAT and gives you a batch of short videos and photographs from one visit, edited and ready to post. If you’d rather not run the accounts yourself, our monthly plans cover the planning and posting too.
