What makes a great product video?
People cannot hold the thing, so the video has to do it for them. That means showing weight, scale, texture and how it actually works in someone's hands, not a slow rotation on a white background with music over the top.
Most product video is over lit and under planned. We work out which three details actually sell the thing, then build the shoot around getting those right. If the product is complex enough to need explaining, a promotional video or an explainer usually does more.

Why us for product video
Product work is technical rather than emotional. It comes down to lighting control, the right glass for macro detail, and the patience to reset a shot fifteen times until the reflection sits where it should. It is slow, precise work and it does not suit everyone.
[NEEDS: Josh and Adam's own take.] Examples sit in our portfolio.
