A Few words about Our Company
We began trading in April 2004. And although we are quite a young company there are over 35 years of award wining talent behind VBM Productions.
We are more than a regular video production company touting pre production, production and post production. We take a unified business and creative approach. That means we don't just think about a video in isolation, but within the context of your organisation, your audience and what you want your video to achieve. We can do this because our senior producers, who are hands on with every project, combine successful business and creative backgrounds.
So what's different about us?
Our purpose is to help you solve your problems and meet your needs. We want to help you do your job. You want to communicate your message to your workforce? We can help. You want to generate more leads through an online video? Then we can help. You want to capture the content and spirit of your conference? Guess what? We can help by being focused on satisfying your objectives, be they business, creative or a mixture of both.
Video Production Made Easy
At VBM we insist upon straight talk. We are not interested in blinding you with science and technology. Talking about pixels, codecs and plops. We have developed our style of video production to ensure we remain focused on your objectives and ensure that you don't get bogged down in jargon and the specifics of video production.
Free Initial Consultation with VBM's Video Design Tool
We begin with a consultation to find out what your requirements are. What do you want the video to achieve? Who's your audience? What are your specific objectives? What are your initial ideas? What is your budget range? What's the timescale?
Since we have found that many of our clients are commissioning a video for the first time and aren't sure how to write a video brief, we developed our Video Design Tool. This is a unique and exclusive tool to VBM. We use it to help write the brief and ultimately the blue print for the video. It's like our black box for video design. Which allows us to focus the consultation on you and your requirements rather than the technicalities of video production.
During the consultation we will show you some examples of our work and we will also prepare a competitor analysis.
Where we came from..
We began trading in April 2004. And although we are quite a young company there are over 35 years of award wining talent behind VBM Productions.
Scott Horsfield is the managing director and founder of VBM. The idea for VBM came about when Scott was working for one of the early pioneers of online communications in investor relations and corporate disclosure, CCBN. He felt that video was massively underused as a means of communications and marketing by organisations. Video was generally only used by FTSE 100 companies and even then only on rare occasions.
"Scott felt there was an opportunity to set up a video production company that made great looking videos"
What grated Scott the most was that when video was used it was often ineffective. It seemed as though companies were making videos for the sake of it. Generally, the videos looked good and glossy, but the purpose of the video was lost.
Scott felt there was an opportunity to set up a video production company that made great looking videos, but, was oriented by the client's objectives, be they business or creative, at a reasonable cost. The point being that the production values or the look of the video are a function of the purpose of the video. The result being satisfied clients and audiences.
Thankfully, he has proven his point. VBM is now not only working with major multinationals but many smaller companies, ranging from local businesses through to public bodies and charities. Scott feels passionately that smaller companies should also benefit from the potential video can have for communications and marketing.
Mark Rutherford joined us in November 2005 as a business partner and creative director. Mark's experience in managing creative projects as an award winning music producer and his experience in video ensures the high standard of quality and creativity is maintained in all VBM's work.
The combination of Scott's expertise in communications and marketing and Mark's talent for managing creative projects is responsible for our success and makes us somewhat unique in the industry.
