A brand film answers "why should anyone care about this company" in about ninety seconds. It runs on your homepage, opens your conference talk, and sits at the top of the deck. It is usually the first thing a prospect watches and the only thing most of them finish.
What a brand film is for
An explainer answers "what does this product do". A brand film has a different job: it gives people a reason to care before they are ready to evaluate features. That distinction matters for fintech and SaaS companies in particular, where the product is often invisible and the category is crowded with near-identical claims.
The films we make are mostly animated, sometimes mixed with live footage, always built on a script that has been argued over properly. The look comes from your brand where one exists, or we design the visual language as part of the project and hand it over for the team to keep using.
How a project goes
Every project runs through the same four steps: Listen, Sketch, Compose, Ship. We work out what actually needs saying, show rough versions early, make the thing, and deliver every format you will use. The process page walks through each step.
What one costs
Bespoke brand films from UK studios usually land between £15,000 and £80,000, with most homepage-quality work sitting around £25,000 to £45,000. Live action, original 3D and characters move the number up. A tight brief, existing brand assets and sensible lead time move it down.
We have written an honest breakdown of the whole subject, including what studios actually spend the money on: how much a brand film costs in the UK in 2026.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a brand film cost?
A brand film made by a UK studio typically lands between £15,000 and £80,000, with most homepage-quality work sitting between £25,000 and £45,000. The biggest factors are live action, original 3D, characters, and the number of deliverable formats.

Six to twelve weeks for most bespoke work, from approved brief to final delivery. Faster is possible but tends to show in the result.
