Short-Form Social Media Videographer in London

Standard retainer: one shoot day per month producing 10-20 platform-ready cutdowns, plus rolling edit support. From £4,000/month. Most clients move to retainer after the first one or two one-off shoots.

5-15 platform-ready cutdowns from a typical shoot day. Hook-test packs (multiple variants of the same content for paid testing) push toward the higher end.

First delivery within seven working days for one-off shoots. Three working days for retained clients. Faster turnarounds available for time-sensitive briefs.

Yes. Captions, subtitles, and platform-specific aspect ratios (9:16, 1:1, 4:5) are part of the deliverable. Most cutdowns ship in two to three aspect ratios as standard.

Standard cutdowns are different content pieces. A hook-test pack is the same core content with different opening hooks for paid testing, so media buyers can scale spend behind the winner.

Yes. Creative-only retainer (from £1,800/month) covers concepting and editing existing footage, no shoot day involved.

Performance is the only honest metric. We work with your media-buying team on what's converting, then bias future shoots toward the variants that work. Wider logic in £5k vs £15k.

Both. Visual standard flexes with the brief. UGC-style often outperforms polished studio work on Meta and TikTok feeds where authenticity reads as credibility.

Yes, where the trend genuinely fits the brand. Trend-jacking for its own sake reads as desperate. Judgement at brief stage rather than chasing every cycle.

Of course! Paid variants (heavier on hooks and CTA) and organic variants (looser, longer-form, more brand-led) can both be cut from the same source material. Cost-per-asset drops sharply when one shoot day feeds both pipelines.
