Video Production
Online Marketing – Documentaries – Explainer Videos – Event Coverage – Editing
I can provide a range of video content including interviews, reportage and cinematic shots including drone footage. Complete edited videos or Royalty Free footage supplied for 3rd party editing.
Whatever your end goal I am sure we can work a solution that will be both visually appealing and can deliver your message or tell your story in a memorable way.
A few examples of previous and ongoing projects …
A Black Knight Historical costume workshop linked to a history festival commemorating the Battle for North Walsham of 1381.
The festival weekend was ultimately cancelled due to lack of funds but the costume workshops continued to be very popular.
A musical montage of views and moments on the Norfolk Broads waterways. This was a lockdown project though many clips were filmed pre-Covid. Most of this footage is now available on the Pond5 library.
Vital Eyes – Winterton Coastwatch
Extracts from an early solo project, a documentary on Winterton Coastwatch, used as a hub to explore the appeal of the surrounding area. Both Coastwatch tower and popular cafe have since succumb to the worsening erosion at Winterton. Winterton Coastwatch have sadly had to admit defeat in their efforts to secure planning for a new watch tower.
Centre 81 – Opportunity for Everyone
Made for the Great Yarmouth charity Centre 81. Used initially for a presentation at a national conference in London on community care and welfare, the film was one way Centre 81 wanted to demonstrate the value of their facilities and highlight the need for a new centre that could serve a wider community.
Documenting Black Knight Historical’s flagship event at Castle Rising featuring commentary throughout and interview with BKH owner and history impressario Ian Pycroft.
Re-enactment exhibits, arena presentations and craft demonstrations spannning 2000 years from Roman Britain to the Second World War including feedback from visitors to the event.
The Lee Enfield bolt action infantry rifle, used during both the First and Second World War by the British Army, is demonstrated by the Suffolk Regiment Living History Society.
Filmed during a Soldiers Through the Ages event at Castle Rising in West Norfolk, England. Also featuring demonstration of a Sten MkII sub-machine gun.
Ruben’s Story
From body builder and doorman to cover model and actor, Ruben Halse from Lowestoft tells his very personal story of how early teenage experiences at first led him down a dark path but one he ultimately broke away from to realise his boyhood dreams.
Still in the edit stage with more B-Roll scheduled.
Extracts Available Soon …
Contributing to a Kindred Productions story on the late Gerry Anderson’s Alzheimers battle featuring an Alzheimer’s Society sponsored Memory Walk at Dorney Lake in Windsor, which Anderson’s son started on one cold Autumn morning.
Suffolk man Terry Arlow’s passion project for 28 years was building his very own fully working Supermarine Spitfire. Then he built another with his son.
Filmed at North Norfolk Railway’s Steam back to the Forties event in 2024.
Great Yarmouth’s 3rd river crossing opens to traffic after three years of construction and unexpected delays – including an unexpoded Second World war bomb very near to the bridge in 2023.
Originally shot in 4K, I edited in 1080 HD to provide cropping options. Some ambient audio was recorded separately at the time of filming and added during editing.
