Frequently Asked Questions
Videographer, Cinematographer or Video Production Company?
Lets cut through and tell the truth! These days you might be okay with either. Technology, accessibility and skill have come so far in recent years. You still need to find someone good, and let’s face it video production companies hire freelancers too, because the best videographers or cinematographers are definitely not sitting employed and waiting around for the next filming job worth £5K+.
EMAGIC is solely owned by Me, Jack Buck and 90% projects can be sourced, shot, edited & graded by me. But yes, sometimes a brief will become more than one person and that’s where I get trusted production people who I’ve had the beauty of sharing work with for the last 14 years, that are true experts in their field. Because I have been at it this long, I know exactly who to bring along on project by project basis, so you’re not paying for anyone’s dead time waiting for the next job to come in.
Do you travel for video or film shoots?
Absolutely, we have travel nationwide from Scotland to Cornwall! We have also been lucky enough to work abroad many many times!
Why should I hire EMAGIC or Just Jack?
14+ Years experience, the abillty to pivot and change, and create beautiful shots for any industry. I have worked across so many sectors that its hard to list, so I know what works and I also know that you can probably push more! A Video/Motion asset is just the start!
Do you create videos for social media?
Yes, we create short-form and long-form videos optimised for platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
Do you film weddings?
No we don't, would we? No sorry.
Can you help with video ideas and scripting?
Yes, we can assist with creative planning, scripting, shot lists, and content strategy to ensure your video achieves its goals, if its needed. Equally we can work with a brief already planned out!
What makes a good promotional video?
A good promotional video clearly communicates your message, looks professional, captures attention quickly, and includes a strong call to action.
How long should a marketing video be?
Most marketing videos perform best between 30 seconds and 2 minutes depending on the platform and audience. If its longer than desired length then your messaging isn't simple enough and it becomes a hard sell video, Still works but don't expect 30 seconds of John Lewis if you want to interview thirty staff members, with twenty questions each!
How much do visual effects services cost?
VFX pricing depends on the complexity of the project, number of shots, animation requirements, simulation work, rendering time, and turnaround schedule. We provide custom quotes based on project requirements.
Do you provide post-production services only?
Yes, we provide full post-production services including editing, colour grading, compositing, visual effects, SFX, motion graphics, and final delivery.
What videography services do you offer?
We provide professional videography services including promotional videos, social video, adverts, corporate video production, event filming, social media content, interviews, product videos, and branded content for businesses and individuals.
What are VFX?
VFX is the process of creating visual effects and digital enhancements for film, television, commercials, branded content, and online media using 3D, CGI, compositing, motion graphics, and post-production techniques.
Can you add CGI to existing footage?
Yes, we can integrate CGI elements into existing footage, including 3D objects, environments, visual enhancements, digital effects, and composited scenes. We can model and texture the elements or they can be supplied and we can tweak them for a CG pipeline!
What VFX services do you offer?
We offer a range of VFX services including CGI, compositing, 3D animation, motion tracking, green screen removal, rotoscoping, clean-up work, particle simulations, and post-production visual effects.
What does a film production company do?
A film production company manages the creative and technical process of producing video content, including planning, filming, directing, editing, and post-production for businesses, brands, and organisations.
How much does a videographer cost? or Video Production Cost?
Videography pricing depends on the type of project, filming time, editing requirements, and final deliverables. Solo shooter projects usually start around £1.5K and stretch to £12K. After that we might start needing a few more creative peeps, to ensure we get the next level look. We also offer retainers!
Will I receive the raw footage?
Raw footage can be provided upon request depending on the project agreement. It’s worth noting we shoot in Log format and we use microphones that capture flat audio profiles, meaning we have ultimate flexibility in post to create the perfect mood, but if you don't know what this is and you try to edit footage yourself it may look sub-par. It's also sometimes huge and a fast PC/Mac is required to crunch through to even just watch it.
Is video good for SEO?
The term SEO is a bit loose. Ultimately, yes! If you have an asset such as a video it is still consisdered one of the richest types of media , and more likely to be viewed than other types of content. It also allows you to tag, and boost/promote or advertise to very specific audiences and these days if someone sees something real its more likely to be trusted, rather than Ai content.
