FilmBeat
Think of us as your very own film crew, without the overheads of employing staff or investing in kit. We’re with you every month, fortnight or week, so we get to know your business, and the idea is to build you a bank of content you can use again and again, and catch topical content before the moment has passed.
How it works
Plan. We get to know your business and build a picture of your ideal customer, where they spend their time and what they want to see, then map out a 12-month content plan around it.
Shoot. Our crew comes to your premises, or wherever you need us in the UK, for a set number of well planned shoots across the year, so every day in front of the camera gives you as much as possible.
Execute. You get the finished videos cut for the places they’ll be seen, and we keep an eye on how they’re doing so the plan changes as we learn what works for you.
The plans
Choose to receive content monthly, fortnightly or weekly. Every plan includes FilmHero training for your team, and the number of videos depends on their length and complexity. The plans run on a 12-month contract, but you can start with a 3-month trial before committing to the full year, and we’ll give you a clear figure before you decide anything.

A few examples
Arriva
We’ve worked with Arriva for a number of years, and in that time we’ve made some really fun content together. The message in this one was simple: say thank you to their customers. Armed with fifty £10 notes and a number of hidden cameras, here’s what we did. It went down a storm across all their social channels.
Manomasa
Manomasa wanted social content that showed how versatile their tortilla chips are and the dishes you can make with them at home. From a tomatillo pizza to a chargrilled pineapple salsa, the videos made through their FilmBeat subscription went down well on social, and you’ll never just serve tortilla chips with salsa again.
Gateshead Council
Gateshead Council needed a new approach to reach potential foster carers, and their ‘Follow My Story’ campaign needed video to support it. Through their FilmBeat subscription, each testimonial went out on YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn with a planned execution strategy, and the campaign has reached far more people than before.
Credit Services Association
Debt collection comes with a lot of negativity, and the CSA work hard to counter it. With regular video through their FilmBeat subscription, they dispel the myths and acknowledge people’s concerns in a way that’s engaging and easy to understand, every month on Facebook, YouTube and their website.
The Smile Spa
Agency: SD Advertising
The Smile Spa had advertised on TV and outdoor for years but hadn’t made content for social. Through testimonials with real patients, their social campaign showed not just the treatment but the difference it has made to people’s lives.
Swinburne Maddison
Before any filming, we did a thorough keyword analysis so the videos would answer what people were actually searching for. Swinburne Maddison now have a suite of videos, each on a key area of their work and delivered by their own lawyers, with complex legal subjects distilled into bite-size pieces.
Go North West
As part of their customer engagement strategy, Go North West wanted social videos that showed the positive nature of their team and their willingness to try new things. Using FilmBeat, they mapped out a 12-month video plan around key events, and the engagement so far has created a real feel-good factor around the brand.
