Promotional Video Production — London, UK
Short-form promo video, longer-form promotional films and documentaries for businesses, agencies, performers and events. Produced in London since 2006.
Promo Video is a London-based promotional video production company run by filmmaker Ian Burke. I produce short, high-impact promos — typically 60 seconds to 3 minutes — and longer-form promotional films, brand documentaries and explainer content when a project calls for more depth.
What we produce
- Short promotional video — 60-second to 3-minute promos for brands, products, services and events.
- Longer-form promotional films — 5–10 minute films for launches, internal comms and thought-leadership.
- Documentary production — branded documentaries, profile films and cause-led storytelling.
- Product launch videos — including short-form cuts for Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube.
- Customer testimonial films — interview-led, packaged for web and social.
- Explainer videos — live action, motion graphics or a hybrid of both.
Our process
- Brief & quote — a 20-minute call to scope length, deliverables and budget.
- Script & shotlist — a treatment you sign off before we shoot.
- Production — single or multi-camera depending on the brief.
- Edit — first cut within a week; up to two rounds of revisions.
- Delivery — HD or 4K master plus social cuts ready for web.

How much does a promotional video cost in London?
Most promo projects fall between £1,000 and £8,000 depending on the number of shoot days, crew size, motion graphics and the volume of edits. Send a brief and I'll give you a fixed quote within 24 hours.
How long should a promotional video be?
For most brand and product promos, 60 seconds to 3 minutes. The shortest I've produced is a 15-second Instagram product clip; the longest are around 5 minutes for niche industry films. 2–3 minutes is the best balance between content depth and viewer attention.
How long does it take from brief to delivery?
A typical project runs 2–4 weeks from brief sign-off to final delivery. I provide a first cut within a week of the shoot, then up to two rounds of revisions.
Do you film in 4K?
Yes. All shoots are 4K by default. I deliver in 4K, HD or platform-optimised social cuts as required.
Can a promotional video include 360° or VR sequences?
Yes. If the project benefits from immersive or 360° elements I handle that through my sister studio Catch Reality — same director and production team, so it stays one project with one point of contact.
