Video making has come a long long way since Hollywood first started producing talkies a century ago. The days are gone where vans of crew, cast and equipment would turn up to film a shoot. Freelancers can go out and film great video content by themselves or with just one extra pair of hands. This […]
Like all good creatives, we’re always learning. For us that includes always being on the lookout for exceptional video production. It inspires us, challenges us, and helps us decide what ideas might work (or not) for our clients. Charities and arts organisations make up the bulk of the video content we produce, so we asked […]
I spend just as much time editing other people’s footage as I do my own. This has always been the case, especially given the cost savings involved for many of my smaller clients. But for the last few months, editing self-shot footage is all I’ve been doing; that and advising people on how to film […]
In recent years, with the relentless rise of the internet and social video content, there’s a hot debate brewing between two different types of video content: live streaming vs pre-recorded video. But which approach is best for your organisation or brand? We sent Will Wray-Lang, our Junior Video Producer, to shed some light. As we […]
Throughout my career, I’ve always done a combination of filming my own content and editing what other people have filmed. Right now, the latter is pretty much all I’m doing.

It’s been one of Studio 91’s biggest projects to date, and one that will hopefully have a far-reaching legacy. Tiny Happy People wants to […]
We do gritty, not glossy. We do people, not products. We do storytelling, not selling. We do real, we do raw, we do social video with purpose. This is the third version of our showreel, which we’ve refreshed annually since 2018 to show the most recent video content we’ve produced. But this is the first […]
If you haven’t heard of BBC Ten Pieces, you’re missing out. Here’s how we worked with them on some fantastic video content to make sure all children are included in the great work they do. Ten Pieces is a fantastic annual campaign from BBC Teach. It’s all about introducing children to orchestral music, and using it […]
St Ann’s Hospice, one of Manchester’s biggest and best-loved charities, approached me recently with a problem. They had lots of footage shot on phones of their supporters at various fundraising events, but they were worried that the quality wasn’t good enough. There were wobbly shots, lots of background noise and varying degrees of picture quality. […]
