What We Do

Video Production With Purpose

We make video content that’s authentic, thoughtful, and built around the people it’s for.

Whether you’re looking to recruit, raise awareness, or share a story that matters, we help shape your ideas into films that are clear, accessible, and emotionally resonant.

From strategy to delivery, we work collaboratively and flexibly — keeping the process simple, and the results impactful.

We’re a friendly team and we are here to help — so when you’re ready, drop us a line, and we can discuss how to use video to elevate your brand.

What You Can Expect

We keep things simple, secure and collaborative — so every film feels like a shared achievement.

In-House Editing

Everything is cut by us — no outsourcing, no confusion, just full creative control.

Collaborative by Design

We work best as part of your team — sharing ideas, adapting on the fly, and staying flexible.

End-to-End Production

From shoot to delivery, we can take care of everything — or step in where you need us most.

Human-First Approach

We prioritise connection — making your people, teams and stories feel real and relatable.

Secure Delivery, Archived for the Future

We keep things moving — edits are delivered quickly, so you’re never waiting to share.

Brand / Hero Films

High-impact centrepiece films that set the tone and tell your story at its best. These often lead wider campaigns, celebrate identity, or showcase purpose — blending cinematic visuals with emotional clarity.

Story-led Films

Human-first video content built around real experiences — ideal for recruitment, case studies, campaigns or internal culture. Think: interviews, team stories, and lived experience pieces that do more than just inform.

Education & Training Films

Clear, grounded content that supports staff training, public understanding or peer education — often built from interviews and observational footage, with accessibility at the forefront.

Documentary-style Projects

Longer-form pieces that explore themes in more depth — for when you want to show the ‘why’ behind the work. These often span multiple interviews, contributors and scenes.

Social Media Cuts & Content

Bespoke shortform edits from main projects, tailored to platform and audience. Always with narrative clarity, not just noise.

Events & Workshops

Light-touch filming and editing of events, conferences or workshops — with options for highlight films or simple documentation.

"I would like to thank Fresh Ground Films for the outstanding work on our Education at a Time of Emergency film. The end product was exceptional, with a quality we could only have dreamt of. Ross provided us with support and advice from start to finish, enabling us to speak with ease and confidence about our project. Ross's enthusiasm and interest for our work was clear throughout and this was reflected in the output, which we are so pleased with. Thank you Ross, we cannot recommend you enough!

"Ross was absolutely amazing. We could not have asked for a more responsive partner for our video or a more professional finish. He went above and beyond to get it right for us. We are a startup business and needed a fast response from someone who not only delivered but who also helped us shape the output - Ross gave us both and more."

Throughout the planning and development process Ross was easy to talk to and very willing to accommodate all our ideas and requirements. He is highly professional, well organised and reliable. The final films look terrific and really help communicate our story to a wider audience."
