We are video experts,
not marketing generalists
There are a lot of digital marketing companies. So many that it makes us wince whenever we read the words ‘full-service marketing’. In our opinion, offering expertise in one field is far better to get the most bang for your buck.
Part of our expertise includes developing a comprehensive content strategy for corporate video and marketing, ensuring our clients receive branded content strategy services along with distribution aftercare to support the content strategy and maximise video reach and success.
This is why Slinky is a team of video experts – we’re not marketing generalists. That means you can be assured of only the best video production services when you approach our video agency; our skills are concentrated in this area – not diluted across many disciplines.
And that makes a big difference when you’re a leading video production agency.
We are an in-house team of specialist roles, not freelance videographers
The Slinky team is the beating heart of our operation, and we couldn’t provide the level of high-quality video production service that we do without them. We invest considerable time in their development and ensure they only have the best tools to work with when shooting and editing video content for our clients.
You may come across other video production houses that outsource the work to freelance videographers. That’s what the word ‘agency’ means, after all. We’ve never believed in that way of working; we’d much rather curate an amazing full-time video production team in-house, ensuring they all have their specialist roles, from highly skilled camera operatives to brilliant post-production editors. This dedicated production team is key to delivering high-quality productions on time, setting us apart in our ability to produce top-tier video content for clients globally.
From highly skilled camera operatives to creative director to brilliant post-production editors, the Slinky team has grown from within our video production company, and you’ll notice the difference – we promise.
We don’t do ‘cheap’, but are instead all about great value
The word ‘cheap’ is great if you’re looking for a quick solution to this evening’s dinner, but it has no place in marketing. If you go out looking for cheap video marketing services, you could end up with a whole heap of trouble.
A cheap video from a cheap video production agency will look… cheap. Worse, it won’t tell the right story, engage your audience or provide any return on investment. It’s why, at Slinky, we have always focused on delivering great value at a cost that suits most marketing budgets.
We proudly won’t provide the cheapest video content quote you’ll find. Still, we will give you a price that accurately reflects our considerable skill, experience, and ability to deliver big-time.
We are not ‘award-winning’ like every other video / film company, but instead we win awards for our clients
In our experience, no one really cares about how many trophies video production companies have on their mantlepieces – they’re far more interested in what you can do.
We’re only interested in one form of award: those provided to our clients. Our creative video content can do just that because we’re far more interested in the success of our clients than any awards we could win.
Suppose you want to invest time and a portion of your marketing budget in a video production company that will deliver a tangible return on investment. In that case, the Slinky video team will be a perfect fit. You won’t find us attending every awards gala the industry throws, but you will find us hard at work turning our client’s stories and ideas into engaging, beautiful, shareable video content.

How long is a filming day?
Your Subtitle Goes Here
A typical shoot day lasts between 6 and 10 hours (excluding travel time), but it is different from project to project, depending on what footage or B-roll needs to be captured. We’ll work with you throughout the entire process of pre-production to develop your project’s most efficient filming schedule and let you know what is achievable within the time available.
How long after filming can I see the first video content preview?
Your Subtitle Goes Here
Typically, we aim to turn around first previews of video production projects within 5-7 working days after filming, depending on the project and the required edit deliverables. Complex animations can take a little longer to produce, which will be discussed during the pre-production phase. The first preview will be a complete first pass for you to provide feedback on, with only the colour grade and subtitles (if required) missing. These will be added once the project is ready to be mastered in to the final video.
As a video production agency, how do you ensure my video project will be delivered to a high standard?
Your Subtitle Goes Here
It doesn’t matter if 2 or 2 million viewers are expected to view your video; we treat everything with the highest quality attention. At Slinky, we run a complete 21-point quality control process on every video deliverable. Any video production company should accept nothing less!
