One story

A line film has shots that happen exactly once — the start-up, when the fleece goes in and the melt runs onto it. After that the line simply runs, and the shot does not come back. That window is agreed in the shooting plan before anyone unpacks a camera.

Case Story

Plant film · Concept, shoot, edit · since 2023 How do you show a machine that is bigger than the room you are standing in? A plant film that follows the material rather than the optics — from pellets to the finished bobbin. The first film we made for SML, and the template for every one since.

A conversation settles that faster than a quote. And we will tell you when something is no use to you.

Every enquiry is welcome — including the ones that never turn into a job. We learn something from every conversation. Tell us the problem, we will listen and think it through with you. That is the least anyone should expect.
