A three-minute highlight film shot, edited and on the big screen by the end of every day of a five-day conference. Five days, five films, and an invitation back the following year.
Get a QuoteClarins is one of the world's best-known skincare and beauty houses, and for several years London Creative was its go-to video and photography partner in the UK. Over that time we produced hundreds of videos and photographs for training, product education and internal communications: the everyday content that keeps a large, fast-moving beauty business aligned.
That volume of work only happens when a client trusts you to turn up, understand the brand and deliver without fuss. It also meant that when Clarins planned its biggest internal event of the year, we were already part of the team.
The event was a five-day conference, with a new group of delegates arriving each day. Every group deserved the same energy as the first, and Clarins wanted each day to end on a high: something that celebrated the people in the room, not a generic corporate wrap-up.
The ask was simple to say and hard to do. Film the day, cut a three-minute highlight film, and have it ready to play on the big screen at the closing session, before anyone had left the building. Then do it again tomorrow, with a new audience, for five days straight.
Delivering a polished film in a single day is a planning exercise as much as a filming one. This is how each day ran.
A conference highlight film delivered weeks later is a nice archive piece. A film delivered the same day is part of the event. It rewards the delegates who gave up their time, it gives the organisers a moment of theatre to close on, and it hands the communications team a ready-made asset for the intranet, LinkedIn and next year's invitation while the conference is still the talk of the business.
For conference organisers at larger companies, this is the single most effective upgrade to standard event filming. It needs a crew who can shoot and cut to a clock, and a producer who plans the day around the deadline rather than hoping for the best. That is exactly what we do.
Yes. It is one of the things we are known for. With the running order agreed in advance, we film the morning and early afternoon, edit on site, and have a graded, titled three-minute film ready for the closing session. For multi-day events we repeat the process every day.
Ideally two to three weeks, so we can walk the venue, agree the running order and plan where the editor sits. We have turned things around faster when a client has needed it, so it is always worth asking.
Yes. For Clarins we provided both video and photography across several years of training and internal communications work. A photographer alongside the video crew means your comms team has stills for the intranet and social the same day.
Yes. We cover conferences across the UK and internationally, and a multi-day event is a good fit for us because the crew is already on site and set up, which keeps each day efficient.
