Commercial Video Production for Automotive

Automotive ads are about feeling as much as specs: the road, the sound, the people in the car. Production Retainers from $1,500 NZD a month.

For automotive

Billie writes and shoots commercials that tell a short story first, then land the model and the offer, with every driving shot planned to stay within the advertising rules.

What Billie makes

  • Model launch commercials
  • Dealership sale spots
  • 6, 15 and 30 second versions
  • Supers for offers and finance terms

On the shoot

Roads and permits

Driving shots on public roads may need council permission and a traffic management plan, and anything beyond normal driving needs a closed road or a private location.

Safety on set

Tracking shots, low angles and drone work around moving vehicles are planned with the drivers in advance, with spotters where needed.

The service
