Open (9–5)Helsinki, Finland
What we do
We make launch films, product videos and short social series. We write, shoot and edit ourselves, so the idea does not get lost between handovers.
First we work out where the video will be seen: on a phone with the sound off, on a trade fair screen or in a cinema. The format, the length and the first seconds follow from that.
A film without music
Vana’s launch film for its electric vessel has no music and no voice-over. You only hear water, wind and gulls, because that is what an electric ferry sounds like.
How the work goes
Idea and script
We write the idea in one sentence, then a script you approve before the shoot.
Pre-production
Storyboard, locations, cast and schedule.
Shoot
A small crew that moves fast and gets in the way of your day as little as possible.
Edit
We cut the main version and short versions for every channel.
Films we made
Client says
At the fair people stopped to watch the film with no sound. Then they came over to ask what the vessel really sounds like.
Common questions
How long should a video be?
As short as the message allows. Often 6 to 15 seconds on social, and one to two minutes for a launch film.
Do you do subtitles and language versions?
Yes. We subtitle every version, because most videos are watched with the sound off.
Who owns the music?
We license music for the channels you need, or have a track made for you. The rights are written into the quote.
The channel and the launch date are enough to start.
