Hotels

A full day at your hotel, hour by hour.

What happens when two creators spend a day on your property: which rooms when, where the light is, when the kitchen can be filmed, and what arrives afterwards. The day is inside every hotel package; this page is so you can see it before you book.

The day

From the empty breakfast room to the last light.

7am, before breakfastThe breakfast room laid and empty, the buffet set, the first coffee. The quietest, prettiest hour the property has.
8am, breakfastPlates arriving, the view from the table, guests who have agreed; filmed around the room, never through it.
10am, the roomsHousekeeping has been; the suites first, then a standard room, in the light that fits each side of the building.
12pm, the public spacesThe lobby, the bar being set, the pool or spa before it opens, the garden, the walk in.
2pm, the kitchen and lunchThe pass with the chef's agreement; a lunch service if there is one, or the afternoon tea.
4pm, the detailTextures, the key, the robe, the view from the window; the B-roll that cuts a dozen Reels.
6pm, the eveningThe bar, the first drinks, the terrace as the light goes. The pieces that sell a stay rather than a room.
8pm, dinnerService filmed around the room, the dishes the kitchen is known for, both of us at a table as guests.
The morning afterOn a stay, the welcome again at first light; then the edit, in house, by the people who filmed it.

What we need from you

Six things to arrange before the day.

A room listWhich rooms, and when housekeeping has finished with them.
The people who agreeStaff who are happy to be filmed, and a word with guests at the tables we would like.
The kitchen's windowWhen the pass can be filmed, agreed with the chef.
The offerWhat the content should sell: the season, the package, the restaurant.
AccessThe pool or spa before opening, the roof, the garden, the places guests do not see.
The stayOn every hotel package, the stay is the production budget: bed and breakfast on the Property Film, full board from Film and Campaign up.

Which package

The day is inside every hotel package.

One night gives one such day. Two nights give two, and cover a restaurant, a pool or a spa properly. Three nights, in the right window, cover a season. A visit a month gives a day like this every month.

All four are on the hotel packages page.

One day, one filmThe Property Film: one night on site.
Two days, a campaignFilm and Campaign: two nights, paid rights.
Three days, a seasonSeasonal Campaign: three nights in the window.
A day every monthMonthly Retainer: rolling, two months notice.

Questions

About the day

Can we book a day without a stay?

Every hotel package includes the stay because the evening and the morning are what we film. Tell us on a free call if your property has no rooms to offer and we will quote the day alone.

Will guests notice?

Two people, no crew, no lights in the lobby. We film around guests and ask before we film anyone.

What if it rains?

We film the inside first and the outside when it clears; on a stay there is a second morning.

When do we see the footage?

The film, the Reels and the stills arrive within the package's delivery time; the Stories can go out during the stay if you want them to.

How far will you travel?

within 90 minutes of High Wycombe is included; the UK, Ireland and Europe are on the terms on each package.

Who leads the work

One team, from the first idea to the finished post.

Velena Lifestyle is a social media and content agency in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. Everything is created in house, by our own team. You have one point of contact from the first brief to the final delivery.
