Restaurants

Restaurant content that never asks you to close, stage a service or clear the room.

Three packages for restaurants, cafes and bars: a session between services, a full day that includes the kitchen, or a monthly rhythm. Both of us come to you, the venue covers meals, and the camera works around your covers rather than around an empty dining room.

Which one fits

What the menu does decides the package.

A fixed menu wants one good session on the plates that sell. A kitchen worth showing, and adverts to run, want a full day. A menu that moves with the season wants two visits a month, so a special is filmed the week it goes on.

Not sure? Book a free call and we will say which, even when it is the smaller one.

A film for the booking page, and the kitchenContent Day: a full shift, a venue film, six Reels, paid media rights.

What the venue provides

A meal, a window, and the dishes that sell.

A meal for each creatorDuring the session. It is what we film and what we taste.
A windowBetween services for the Spotlight and the retainer; the whole day, around service, for the Content Day.
The dishes that sellNot only the ones the kitchen is proudest of. A plate that takes twenty minutes and sells four a night is not worth six seconds of a stranger's attention.
The people who agree to be filmedThe chef at the pass, the bartender, the front of house. We ask, and we leave out anyone who would rather not.
Nothing elseNo crew charge, no equipment hire, no expenses invoice afterwards.
What we bringTwo creators, the cameras, the edit, the captions and the rights in writing.
