Videography in Ilkeston, Derbyshire

I film for businesses in Ilkeston and across Erewash, from the shops on Bath Street to the firms making things out round the Erewash valley, and I do the editing myself back in Belper. You’re squeezed between Derby and Nottingham here. Video is how you stand out.

Who does video production in Ilkeston?

North Bear Media does. Norton Hunt runs it from Belper and films Ilkeston businesses on site, from shops on Bath Street to manufacturers round the Erewash valley. Regular video is Found & Filmed at £995 a month, with a filming day every quarter and a monthly report. The £295 Marketing MOT is the place to start.

Stuck between two cities, so being the one people recognise matters.

Ilkeston businesses are up against Derby on one side and Nottingham on the other, so standing out locally counts for more here than almost anywhere.

The businesses that do well are the ones people feel they already know, and video is the quickest way to get there, because they’ve seen you and heard you talk before they ring.

The film fits the business. For a shop on Bath Street it’s short clips, often, showing what’s come in that week. For a manufacturer out round the Erewash valley it’s one proper film that shows a buyer the place and the people. Different jobs, and I do both.

Either way there’s a stage in the edit called colour grading, which in plain English means getting the colours right and matching them shot to shot, so it doesn’t look like it was filmed on different days. Years of editing video means I get that right.

So how does it work?

Regular video sits inside Found & Filmed, at £995 a month.

You get a filming day at yours each quarter, and I edit what we film and post it for you, spread out so it isn’t all going up in the same week. You’ve got a business to run, so I handle it. Around that I work on getting you found on Google and in AI search, with a report and a call every month so you see how it’s going. It’s rolling monthly, 30 days’ notice either way, so if it’s not working you stop.

Your reviews carry a lot of weight with ChatGPT, and I’ll give you the best chance of being the one it suggests. Want to see where you stand first? That’s what the £295 MOT is for.

What a shoot in Ilkeston looks like.

It all starts from one question: what do you want somebody to do after they’ve watched it?

  1. 01 //

    What happens next

    We work out who it’s for and what they should do after watching, whether that’s ringing you or coming in, and the plan comes from that.

  2. 02 //

    Filming

    I film at your premises or out on a job, and you carry on working. I might ask you to do the odd bit again, and I’ll keep you comfortable on camera.

  3. 03 //

    Grade and edit

    I cut it together and grade it, then you watch a draft and tell me what to change before I finish it.

  4. 04 //

    Where it goes

    It goes on your website and your socials, and if you’re on Found & Filmed I post it for you and we go through what’s been watched on the monthly call.

Common questions about videography in Ilkeston.

How much does videography cost in Ilkeston?

Videography in Ilkeston comes as part of Found & Filmed, £995 a month, with a filming day at your premises every quarter and the edited, captioned video and stills from it. That costs far less than taking someone on. The Marketing MOT is £295, and it’s where I’d start.

What equipment do you use?

I bring all the camera and sound kit myself, so you don’t hire or buy anything. For a factory floor or a workshop I bring lights too, because places like that come out dark on camera without them.

How long does a video take to produce?

I give you a date before we start, based on how much there is to film and edit. A short clip for a shop is quicker than a film for trade buyers, because there’s less to plan and cut.

Do you provide music and graphics?

Yes. Licensed music and your logo go in where they help. If you’ve got a product that needs explaining, I put labels on screen too, so people can see what’s what.

Can I use the video on multiple platforms?

Yes. You get a main version for your website and shorter cuts shaped for social media, so the same footage works in both places.
