Production
Focused and agile
We Film Science employs a scalable crew model allowing us to offer value for money and keep productions focused and agile.
We understand the issues of filming on campus and in busy labs and our small, discreet crews are experienced at working in time-pressured, sensitive environments with the minimum of fuss.
On most productions you will be working directly with a single, dedicated filmmaker throughout, making it easy to maintain your creative vision, from early storyboards all the way through to your final edit.
HD or 4K – we think science is technical enough
Although we’re self-confessed camera kit nerds we know that producing a video can feel overwhelming for clients.
We work hard to cover all of the technical aspects required to make a high quality video so you can focus on the story and the message that you want to convey.
We love making films about science and we want you to love it too. We foster a relaxed, warm atmosphere on set so everyone feels comfortable and we pride ourselves on getting confident, natural performances from each interviewee.
Motion Graphics
& Animation
Seeing the unseeable
From Big Data to the single cell, science is filled with camera-shy concepts and objects that researchers need to describe.
Animation and creative data visualisation can immerse an audience in a story. From public engagement explainer videos to educational resources and lab process guides, We Film Science’s Motion Graphic artists have got you covered.
A sprinkle of magic
Whether your video needs a cool title sequence or an innovative way to represent a project’s findings, We Film Science can offer exciting ways to make your video stand out with a sprinkle of After Effects magic.
For longer and more complex sequences we can also create immersive journeys into hidden biological worlds, greatly increasing an audience’s sense of wonder and exploration.
Training &
Courses
Helping you film science
Making a great science video is hard, but over the years we’ve developed skills and methods to avoid the many pitfalls of production, allowing us to consistently produce the engaging, high-quality videos we’re known for.
Unfortunately, budget and time constraints mean that science institutes and universities can’t always commission as many videos as they’d like and all too often some amazing science stories go un-filmed.
We Film Science is passionate about passing skills on to the research community and we offer tailor-made courses to help in-house staff and individual researchers take their videos to the next level.
Empowering the scientific community
Whether you want your Comms team to be able to confidently produce regular, high quality video content for social channels or to empower your researchers with the skills to document their work on phones in the field, we can help you capture science in the best light.
From simple, quick-start sessions that get you up and running to more in-depth courses, we can teach you to storyboard a video, demystify brain-melting camera menus, film insightful interviews and edit powerful engaging stories.
