BBD Perfect Storm company films

BBD Perfect Storm is a London creative agency running a content programme for an investor platform client, putting company stories in front of investors through film. The businesses featured needed content, and a steady supply of it. BBD needed a production partner who could turn founder interviews into polished, investor-ready films quickly and consistently, to a repeatable format that would hold up across very different companies, from gold mining to AI to sustainable construction.

This is an ongoing production partnership rather than a single commission. We work as the embedded video team behind the programme: BBD brings the strategy, the client and the brief, and we handle the production end to end, shoot after shoot. Over the course of the relationship we have built a rhythm that lets us turn each new company around quickly without the look drifting, which is what makes a content programme like this sustainable.

Each company receives three films built from a single shoot: a long-form Opportunity Film of around four minutes, a one-minute cutdown of that film, and a separate short-form Quickfire Film shot founder-to-camera in a looser, social-native style. The films are interview-led. We direct a founder interview on location, then build the picture around it using a mix of b-roll shot on the day, footage and stills supplied by the company, stock, and AI-generated clips where a shot cannot be captured any other way, which matters when you are illustrating a mine on the other side of the world or a concept still in development. Each shoot starts with a recce and pre-production call planned around famously time-poor founders and CEOs. A consistent graphics system, licensed music and Frame.io review keep the whole library visually coherent while each film stays true to its company.

A growing library of investor films produced across the partnership, spanning companies in mining and metals, AI and technology, sustainable construction and clean energy. Each company receives three films from a single day of filming: a long-form Opportunity Film, a one-minute cutdown, and a short-form Quickfire film, alongside launch promos for the platform itself. Films run on the investor platform, company websites and social channels, giving each business a flagship investor film, a fast cutdown, and a social-native short.
