Video Production for Builders Napier

In Napier and Hawke’s Bay

Hawke’s Bay builders work across art deco heritage in Napier, rural homes and new subdivisions, and parts of the region are still rebuilding after Cyclone Gabrielle in 2023. Project stories there often involve both new work and repair.

Napier was rebuilt in art deco style after the 1931 earthquake, and its streets, the Marine Parade and the Hawke’s Bay vineyards give a look you cannot find anywhere else in New Zealand. Food, wine and tourism keep local creative work busy.

Billie travels to Napier for productions, bringing the full team or working with local crew depending on the job.

What it’s for

Builders and trades win work on reputation and on proof that they do a job well.

Their best content shows finished projects, the craft in the detail and the team on site, so homeowners and commercial clients can see who will be turning up. Build progress footage, time-lapses and before and after material make strong social posts, and recruitment videos help in a trade where good people are hard to find.

What gets made

On the shoot

Clients’ homes and privacy

Finished homes belong to clients, so their agreement comes first, and addresses, family photos and personal details are kept out of frame.

Weather and light

Exterior work depends on the weather, so outdoor shoots have a backup date, and interiors are scheduled for when the light through the windows is at its best.

Which retainer suits

Essential at $1,500 NZD a month suits a trade business that wants one session a month on site to keep social and the website current. Creative at $3,000 NZD a month suits a builder with several projects underway, or one that wants to document builds as they progress, and Studio Partner, on enquiry, suits a larger construction company with ongoing marketing and recruitment needs. A single showcase film for a finished project can be quoted as Bespoke Production.
