Professional Video Services Exeter | Promotional Films Devon

John Gandy’s in Exeter is one of the most popular and when known bars In Exeter. Chris who Manages John Gandy’s and also The Waterfront down by the Quay got in contact about creating a promotional film for the bar to show off its updated look. The idea of the film was to show all area’s of John Gandys! It is well known for being one of the best sports bars in Exeter but people may not know that it has a fantastic cocktail bar upstairs named Spirit and also has some great bands playing there. The aim of the video was to promote all the sides to the bar and generally show the brilliant atmosphere and what makes it so unique. The shoot was broken up into two separate nights. The first part of the shoot we got a lot of the close up shots of the cocktails being created and drinks poured. On the second night of filming is where we got the most of our footage! John Gandys had a fantastic band playing on the stage and it really filled the bar and made the atmosphere incredible. Its so much easier shooting a promotional film like this when you can see that everyone is genuinely having a great time! It was a little snug at times and making sure that beer wasn’t getting thrown over the camera was at the top my head. Check out the John Gandy’s promotional film below:

Social Media + High Quality Video = Winning combination

John Gandy’s put there promotional video on its Facebook page to initially advertise the bar and its engagement and viewing figures are very impressive. It has been viewed more than 12,000 times and has lots of great comments and reactions. This is a great example of when social media and good video content works extremely well together. This winning combination is a great way to advertise your business or product and is getting more popular every day.

Video Production Devon

I wanted to create a very simple explanation of how the process works start to finish to create a promotional film. This process is pretty much the same for every project that is taken on; obviously the size of the project will determine how long it takes to do each stage from planning through to completion. One of the biggest and most important aims of Sharp Films is for the client to have trust in us. When a new project is starting I go through this simple process so that you know exactly what happens and when.

Plan it

I will come and meet with you or talk on the phone about your project idea or brief. This is also a time for me to understand more about your business or product. This is important so that I can make any recommendations to how the film could work. Often I am able to bounce different idea’s around that you might not of thought of and adapt the idea to be more engaging or creative. Once I understand the brief and your business I can go away and create a general plan for the shoot.

The Shoot

This is when I can get all the toys out! I shoot on some of the most up to date videography equipment available and if needed have a further production team I can bring in to assist on the shoot. Having a solid brief is always very important at this stage. Having the time to be creative is even more important tho. Often taking a step back and just shooting what works is best thing you can do ! You can capture some of those special moments or intricate details that take your film up a notch.

The Edit

The edit is my favourite part of the whole process. This is where I get to put together the creation and make the vision a reality. I use a professional and high quality edit suite powered by Apple Macs. The footage firstly gets logged in order of appearance. Then the soundtrack is added, colour is graded and then a final tighten. I then watch through to make sure I am 100% happy with the edit. The client will then be able to review the edit and I can make any further changes needed.  

Happy Days

It really is as simple as that, there is no wizardry here… Just knowing what to capture and turning it into a slick and unique edit that shows off your product or service. If you’re interested in having a promotional film shot or even your event filmed then don’t hesitate to get in touch here.

Hello and welcome to Sharp Films Exeter, Devon.. its a pleasure to have you!

My name is Chris and I run Sharp Films. I’m sure by now you have had a good look around the website but just incase you haven’t I wanted to give you a little bit of info about what Sharp Films is and what I do!

Whats it all about ?

So, Sharp Films is Chris From Exeter,  Devon. I have been a videographer and editor for about 5 years now and after graduating from Falmouth University with a 2nd Class Honours in Digital Media, I decided to chase my dream. I have always wanted to run my very own video production company in Exeter and so, I did! I set up In Motion Media in 2014 which is a sister company to Sharp films. In Motion Media concentrates mainly on automotive films, as I am a massive petrol head. I wanted to start creating more promotional content and set up Sharp films, just for this purpose. Sharp films number one aim is to create stunning video content at an affordable yet competitive rate. I am extremely passionate in the art of film making and every project I embark on, no matter the subject or time scale always put 110% into. I want to create something that is unique and that will show off your product or service in the best possible light. I have worked with some big names such as The discovery Channel, Epic TV, Saltrock and Markerstudy. Just being myself at Sharp Films enables me to keep my prices lower and pass the savings onto you… Happy days!
