Undecided?

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.

Absolutely, we have travel nationwide from Scotland to Cornwall! We have also been lucky enough to work abroad many many times!

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!

Yes, we create short-form and long-form videos optimised for platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube.

No we don't, would we? No sorry.

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!

A good promotional video clearly communicates your message, looks professional, captures attention quickly, and includes a strong call to action.

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!

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.

Yes, we provide full post-production services including editing, colour grading, compositing, visual effects, SFX, motion graphics, and final delivery.

This is project dependent, but we do and have delivered same day before for very simple social media projects. Obviously 3D, and more complex campaigns can take a lot longer.

Once we have created the first cut we use something called Frame.io, an industry standard reviewing platform that allows our clients to draw and make notes frame by frame or second by second.

We will be creating a page on this one day as we get asked this a lot. Log is a way of recording video or film, where theres hardly any colour, contrast and detail in a scene. Everything looks flat (ungraded), we can then apply colour, contrast and lots of other magic to make the footage look like it did on the back of the monitor on the day or better.
Why do we do this? - it gives us more flexibilty to match past/future content as well as gives way more control over the whole look of the footage. It also means we can choose where our highlights and shadows can reach.
