What We Make Films does

We Make Films is a Bristol-based creative video production company serving B2B organisations across the UK and Europe. The company produces cinematic film content — including corporate videos, brand and recruitment films, client testimonials, case studies, product videos, social media content, podcasts, photography, and 2D/3D animation — for ambitious organisations in the technology, manufacturing, aerospace, engineering, financial services, education, and professional services sectors. Its underlying production capability combines professional filming equipment, drone footage, time-lapse photography, and an audio isolation technology that enables clear speech capture in challenging environments such as factory floors. Each engagement is delivered as an end-to-end package spanning pre-production planning, on-location filming, and post-production editing, colour grading, sound mixing, and graphics.

The business operates on a project-based professional services model with custom pricing tied to scope. Smaller testimonial, case study, and recruitment projects start at approximately £5-10K, photography sessions from £2.5K+VAT, podcast production from £3.5K+VAT, and corporate videos from £5K+VAT, while larger multi-day productions are priced individually. A monthly social media video subscription at £4K+VAT per month has been introduced alongside project work, marking an early move toward recurring revenue. Distribution is direct: a sales-led go-to-market driven through the company website (Book a Call and Get a Free Quote CTAs), discovery calls conducted by the founder, and direct phone and email outreach, with same-day quote response times.

We Make Films is incorporated in the United Kingdom as We Make Films Limited, with the registered office in Clevedon and the operational office at Suite 21, 14-15 Triangle South, Bristol BS8 1EY. It is a privately held, bootstrapped firm with 1-10 employees, no disclosed external funding, and no parent company. Named enterprise clients include JCB, Virgin Media O2, TATA Steel, Bosch, Graphic Packaging International, and Matter, alongside mid-market clients such as Frazer James, Twentyfifty, Prolectric, and Oasis Community Learning.
