Trainline Business

Corporate case study videos have a habit of looking and sounding the same. Working with Trainline Business, the aim was to avoid that by keeping things grounded, visual, and focused on the customer rather than polished talking heads.

We designed the project around a central hero film, with a clear plan from the start to pull out short, punchy cutdowns for social media. That meant thinking about pacing, framing, and moments that would still land in a few seconds, not just in a longer edit. Shooting with that flexibility in mind made it easier to create a suite of content from a single production.

A key part of the shoot took place at London’s King’s Cross station. Filming in a live transport hub forces you to stay agile. You have to adapt quickly, work around crowds, and react to what’s unfolding in front of you. There’s no controlling the environment, which often leads to footage that feels more natural and believable.

By building the story around movement and real usage, the films show how Trainline Business fits into everyday working life. The result is a practical, energetic case study that works both as a main brand piece and as short-form content designed to travel well across social platforms.

Tiree Music Festival 2024

I returned to the Isle of Tiree in the Inner Hebrides this summer for the fourth year running to cover Tiree Music Festival with Well Good Media.

Held every July, Tiree Music Festival is an award-winning folk and contemporary music event set against the island’s white-sand beaches. The festival brings together Scottish and international artists and captures the relaxed, welcoming spirit of island life.

Over four days we produced a large volume of content, from live multi-camera recordings on the main stage to intimate acoustic sessions across the island, alongside behind-the-scenes coverage. All of this was published on the Tiree Music Festival TV platform.

Daily highlight films and a full weekend highlights films were edited on site by our small but incredibly hard-working team for social media.

Travelling all over Scotland, this includes Ajay Kumar, Chef Owner of Swadish in Glasgow; Calum Montgomery, Chef Patron of Edinbane Lodge on the Isle of Skye; Kevin Dalgleish, Chef Patron of Amuse in Aberdeen; and David Millar, Head Chef at Jupiter Artland near Edinburgh.

My Chemical Romance at the OVO Hydro

Live, in-person events have been making a welcome comeback in recent months. But it only really hit home from me this week when I was stood in the pit operating cameras at a packed out OVO Hydro for My Chemical Romance.

Great to see live music well and truly back!
