On the shoot

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.

Built to be updated

Interviews and b-roll are shot so the film can be recut when the product, the pricing or the team changes, without another full shoot.

The service

Billie shoots stills the same way it shoots film: with a clear idea, careful light and an eye for the frame. Artist portraits, campaign imagery, posters and behind-the-scenes stills can be shot on their own or alongside a video project.

What’s included

Artist and studio portraits
Campaign and product stills
Posters and key art
Behind-the-scenes coverage
Retouched, web-ready files

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.

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 our product if it is mostly software?

Yes. Software is filmed through the people using it, clean screen recordings and motion graphics, so the film shows what the product does without long stretches of interface.

What is included?

Artist and studio portraits, campaign and product stills, posters and key art, behind-the-scenes coverage, retouched, web-ready files. The exact scope depends on the brief, and every quote is put together for the project.
