HD Production

We have decided to use HD as our day-to-day production standard. The edit suites are upgraded, even mobile HD editing has been implemented. There is no change in logistics, but you will like the improved picture quality.

Royalty-free Footage

Stock footage adds spectacular or hard-to-obtain shots to a video production without pushing the budget beyond its limits. We have a huge archive ready for our customers.

Shooting all over the world, we take our time to acquire the basics (cities, national symbols, landscapes), but we also push video technology to the limits (like shooting on the slopes of an erupting volcano).

While the majority of footage on sale elsewhere is shot on film, we have decided to go for crisp digital video (HD since 2004) - just because almost every program is done like that. This ensures that our stock footage matches the look of your production. We will offer footage online in the near future - stay tuned!
