For years we've been saying "we make videos" and underselling what we do. Yes, at the end of the day we do make videos but the professional process can be a long and involved one to get it right.

So yes we do make videos... and we make them to the highest standard, taking care of the entire process.

"My mate's nephew has a camera and a laptop, he can do it for us... and a lot cheaper"

In some rare cases, that may be correct and that's great. 

But…do they know how to plan a shoot with proper pre-production, location permits, insurances and safety?  Does their phone footage really look as good as a dynamic 4K camera and prime lens with an experienced DOP framing the shots? 

What do they do when there is a lot of wind noise or something in the background of your shot that shouldn't be there? 

Or when that person finishes the edit and has no idea of what's required to get your ad on air?...you have serious problems!

The Merlin team brings a wealth of experience, knowledge and award-winning creative minds to your production and know how to get it done right... the first time.

You need it done when!!? … sure. 

Merlin strives to work with you to get your project completed when you need it, and can customise production to meet any budget restraints you may have.

Not only are we good at what we do - we live what we do - our award-winning team lives and breathes filmmaking; and are always excited to bring our ideas and creativity to your project to make it stand out from the crowd.

Our team is always on top of new techniques, new toys, new software. We love to learn and apply that to your projects.

Working with our clients is how we achieve greatness.

You have an idea? Perfect! You don’t need to hand it over completely - we can work with you to provide the best possible team and best possible equipment to make sure your project achieves the desired outcome.

Let's face it, we are not saving lives here, so let's have some fun along the way.

While some of our training videos do help keep people safe and save lives, it's all about enjoying the production process; and making yourselves, your clients, the talent feel as comfortable and looked after as possible. A few laughs along the way certainly help bring out the best in the creative process and make the journey a fun experience for us, our clients, your clients and the final audience.
