The thinking before the shooting: campaign concepts, creative direction and design, developed in the same studio that makes the films. We take a brief from blank page to a treatment you can green-light.
Because the creative and the crew are the same people, ideas get shaped by what actually works on a shoot day, and nothing gets lost between an agency deck and the finished film. Design runs through everything we deliver: titles, graphics, treatments and the grade, and when the campaign needs somewhere to live, we design and build the website too.
Five recent creative & design projects with the films, in one place. Press play on any of them, or open the full case study.
Launch film for the SPATZ AW26 range: product-led, weather-tested and cut to sell the kit on the roads it was built for.
Vertical advert for TuneCore with Conor Maynard, built for the feed: hook first, legible sound-off, thirty seconds end to end.
Film and stills following a hand-painted Coca-Cola mural in Leeds from first outline to finished wall. Shot across the paint week, cut for social and delivered with a full stills set for press and brand channels.
Aerial and cinematography for Sika at Pates Hill Windfarm in Scotland, flying the Inspire 3 above the cloud line to put the turbines in their landscape. Renewable infrastructure shot at the scale it deserves, on the ground and in the air.
Product how-to film for Restrap’s Aero Race Top Tube Bag, walking through fitting and use in one clear run. Shot in-house and cut long-form for the product page, with cutdowns for social.
The brief, the audience, the channels and the budget, all on the table before anyone opens a design file. We ask the awkward questions early.
Routes, a visual direction and mock frames you can react to. The treatment is written by the people who will shoot it, so it is achievable on the day.
Campaign assets, design for screen and web design, produced in-house. The film, the social cuts and the site all come from one studio and look like it.
Brands that need the thinking before the shooting, and campaigns that have to travel across film, social, print and web without falling apart on the way. Also anyone who has been sold a beautiful idea that turned out to be unshootable.
--- QuestionsYes. Design and build, in-house. The site you are reading was designed and built by Northworks, and it is the same process for a client.
No. Creative and design stand on their own. Plenty of clients take a concept and treatment and produce it elsewhere, though most find it easier not to.
A brief, even a rough one. Who it is for, where it will run, when it needs to exist and roughly what there is to spend. We can help shape the rest.
