Reels and TikTok production for brands

Vertical video is watched on the go and often without sound, and viewers decide whether to keep watching in the first second. We shoot digital content for brands with the directing and lighting of a commercial and storytelling built for the feed.

How we approach vertical content

The platform sets the form. The first frame has to stop the scroll, the edit rhythm holds attention to the end, and the meaning comes across without sound: through the image, titles and action in the frame.

We plan digital content in series. In one shoot day we film a package of videos with a shared visual language: the campaign looks cohesive and production costs less than separate shoots for each video.

If the brand is running a TV campaign at the same time, vertical videos are shot on the same set and in the same style as the advertising film. Framing for 9:16 is planned during the shoot, not cropped from a horizontal frame.

What it solves

  • Supporting an advertising campaign on social media.
  • Launching a product in digital channels.
  • Regular content for the duration of a campaign.
  • Creatives for performance advertising: several openings and approaches to test which works best.

FAQ

How many videos can you shoot in one day?
It depends on the scripts, the number of locations and actors. We plan the shoot day to deliver a series, and the exact number of videos is fixed in the budget.
Can vertical versions be made from a commercial?
Yes. The best result comes when vertical versions are planned before the shoot: then separate shots are staged for them instead of cropping the horizontal one.
How much does Reels production for a brand cost?
The cost is calculated per package of videos and depends on the number of shoot days, casting and the amount of editing. We prepare the budget after the brief.
