Startup Video Production Auckland

In Auckland

Auckland is the country’s biggest startup and tech centre, with an innovation precinct at Wynyard Quarter and young companies spread across the city fringe. Hemara Group is headquartered in Auckland, so Billie shoots there need no travel.

Auckland is where most of New Zealand’s music, advertising and screen work is made. It is the country’s largest city, home to about a third of the population, and it has the widest range of locations within an hour’s drive: city streets, harbour, west coast beaches and the volcanic cones.

Billie is part of Hemara Group, which is headquartered in Auckland, so Auckland shoots need no travel.

What it’s for

Startups use video to explain something new to people who have not seen it before: investors, early customers and the people they want to hire.

That means a launch film or explainer, product demos and screen-led walkthroughs, founder interviews, recruitment films and a steady feed of social content as the company grows. The product often changes month to month, so the content has to be easy to update. Billie plans shoots so interviews and b-roll can be recut as the story moves.

On the shoot

Confidential products

Unreleased features, whiteboards and dashboards are checked before a shoot so nothing confidential ends up in the background.

Founders on camera

Most founders are not used to being filmed. A relaxed interview with prepared questions usually works better than a script read to camera.

Which retainer suits

An early-stage company with a steady stream of releases often suits Essential at $1,500 NZD a month: one session, three edited pieces and five short-form edits keep launches and hiring posts covered. A growing team running campaigns may need Creative at $3,000 NZD a month for two sessions and concept development. A single launch film or investor video can be quoted on its own as Bespoke Production.
