Scope and approach
A corporate film
to explain, reassure
and build trust.
A corporate film introduces a business, team, location or area of expertise through professional video. It can be made for your website, LinkedIn, advertising campaigns, internal communications or employer branding.
Where I work
Based in the Lake Geneva region, I work with businesses and agencies in France and French-speaking Switzerland. Travel and filming arrangements are planned around each project.
Video formats
Corporate films, interviews with leaders and employees, employer branding, films about people and their work, CSR content, e-learning, property films, drone footage and social media edits.
Approach
We start with what you need: what you want to show, who you want to reach and where the film will be used. I help you choose the people to interview and the footage to shoot.
The right format
for your subject.
I work with businesses, communications teams and agencies, from planning through to files ready to publish.

Corporate film
Present your business, a profession, a production site or specialist expertise with clear images and a clear message. A corporate film can support company communications, sales or CSR projects.
Interviews and employer branding
Give leaders, employees or clients a voice. Prepare the conversations and take care of picture and sound to introduce your teams and the work they do.
Brand content
Support a campaign, tell the story of a product or collection, and plan the formats needed for distribution. Filming and editing follow your brand or agency brief.
Events and conferences
Film a seminar, a talk or an event. Produce a full recording, a highlights film or short clips, with multicamera filming when the project calls for it.
Training and demonstrations
Explain a task, a procedure or how a product works with an edit that is easy to follow. Tutorials and e-learning videos are planned around the needs of their users.
Clients and sectors
Who do I work with?
I make corporate films and B2B content for businesses, agencies and communications teams. Here are a few ways video can be used in your sector.
SMEs, industry and services
Present a production site, explain a process, show technical expertise or make a complex offer easier to understand. The film shows your teams and their skills at work.
Agencies and communications teams
Produce video for a campaign, a company message or a brand project. I handle filming and post-production to your brief, with versions for websites and social media.
Property and distinctive venues
Present a property, hotel, estate or commercial space with ground-level footage and, where it suits the subject, drone shots.

Questions that often come up when planning a corporate film.
Planning and budget
Where can you work?
I am based in the Lake Geneva region and travel in France and French-speaking Switzerland depending on the project, including Haute-Savoie, Geneva and Lausanne. Travel and filming arrangements are set out in the quote. You can also visit the pages for Geneva, Lausanne and Annecy.
What budget should I allow for a corporate film?
The budget depends on preparation time, filming locations and days, the crew and equipment needed, then editing and additional versions. The quote details the files to be delivered, included revisions, travel and usage rights.
How does a project work, and how long does it take?
Production includes planning, filming and post-production: editing, sound, colour grading, graphics and exports. The schedule depends on the scope of the film, contributor availability and approvals. We agree on the stages and delivery date before starting.
Content and distribution
How can video make a complex business or product easier to understand?
A video can show a process, a machine or software while someone explains it. Interviews, demonstrations and on-site footage can also introduce your teams and their work. The story is built around how much your audience already knows.
Which files do you deliver?
The quote sets out the formats you need: main film, shorter versions, landscape or portrait exports, subtitles and graphics. They are prepared for the agreed platforms, whether your website, YouTube, LinkedIn, a presentation or internal communications.
Should the film be landscape or portrait?
The 16:9 landscape format suits websites, YouTube, presentations and screens. Portrait or square versions can be prepared for social media. We agree on how the film will be used in advance so that the right framing is planned during filming.
Can the film be used in an advertising campaign?
Yes. The message, length and format need to suit the audience and platform. Several versions can be prepared for LinkedIn, Google Ads or social media campaigns. Their performance also depends on targeting, distribution and the offer itself.
Filming and collaboration
Can you work with our agency?
Yes. I can join a project planned by your agency for filming, post-production or both. Roles, supplied materials and the files to be delivered are agreed in the brief.
Can we include drone footage?
Yes, when it serves the film and the location allows it. Feasibility, local restrictions and required permissions are checked before filming. Aerial shots can show where a site is, its surroundings or how an activity works.
Can you also provide photography?
Yes, on some projects, depending on the setup and what the shoot requires. Photography needs to be included in the brief so that we can plan the shots and agree on the images to deliver.
