Video Production for Schools and Education

An enrolment film has to answer what families actually ask: what is it like here, who teaches, what do students do. Production Retainers from $1,500 NZD a month.

For schools and education

Billie plans the film around those questions, with student and staff interviews, real classes and the campus, and cuts versions for the website, open days and social.

What Billie makes

  • Enrolment and prospectus film
  • Open day screening version
  • Short campus tour
  • Social cut-downs

On the shoot

The timetable and the calendar

Shoots are planned around the timetable and the school calendar, so classes run normally and the footage shows real days.

Privacy on campus

Names on uniforms, rolls on walls and screens in classrooms are checked before filming so nothing identifies a student who should not be identified.

The service

Billie handles video from the first idea to the final export: concept, scripting, casting, the shoot itself, edit, colour and sound. One team carries the project the whole way, so the story you sign off on at the start is the one that ends up on screen.

What’s included

  • Concept and scripting
  • Location scouting and casting
  • Shoot crew and camera
  • Edit, colour grade and sound mix
  • Cut-downs for every platform

Which retainer suits

Schools and tertiary providers with a year-round calendar suit Essential at $1,500 NZD a month: one session a month covers events, sport and campus life, with short-form edits for social. A new enrolment film is usually quoted as Bespoke Production. Larger institutions running student recruitment campaigns may need Creative at $3,000 NZD a month; the guide to retainers and one-off projects helps decide.

Questions

Is this a paid service?

Yes. Billie is a paid production company. Production Retainers are $1,500 NZD a month for Essential and $3,000 NZD a month for Creative, and Studio Partner is priced on enquiry. Projects outside a retainer are quoted per project as Bespoke Production.

Can you film on normal school days?

Yes, and that is usually best: real classes and real breaks look more honest than staged ones. Shoots are planned with the school to fit around the timetable.

What is included?

Concept and scripting, location scouting and casting, shoot crew and camera, edit, colour grade and sound mix, cut-downs for every platform. The exact scope depends on the brief, and every quote is put together for the project.
