We have successfully produced a number of school videos and believe that we have a winning formula that ENTERTAINS, ENGAGES and INFORMS potential students and parents.  We listen to your ideas and take on board the ETHOS and CULTURE of your place of learning, incorporating these factors into the finished video.  We suggest an initial video chat in order to understand and appreciate what you are trying to achieve.  Our large portfolio of education videos include primary schools, senior schools, primarily promotional videos but also recruitment, virtual tours and social media videos including foreign language versions. All our crew have DBS (CRB) certificates.

WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE WE HAVE LAUNCHED A DEDICATED SCHOOL VIDEO WEB SITE 

www.school-video-production.co.uk

Explore the brand new web site featuring a wealth of useful information, downloadable school video guides and lots of video.

CLAIRE ROBINS O.B.E -TESTIMONIAL

Claire Robins O.B.E – Headteacher of Sir John Lawes School and CEO of Scholars’ Education Trust talks about why she chose Film Infinity to make their school promotional video. “Film Infinity were really good at working with young people. They understood how to get the best out of them, they communicated clearly with them and the staff. They made everybody feel really comfortable about being filmed which meant that the final product was even better that we could have hoped for”

We recommend a tried and tested structure for your school video

A fast paced edit featuring a broad spectrum of subjects and year groups will inspire and educate. We recommend a 3-4 minute video for your website. We can easily create shorter versions for social media. The script should include key information that will answer any questions that parents and students may have. Including video testimonials from both students and teachers are an extremely powerful recruitment tool.

WHAT YOU GET FOR YOUR MONEY

This is an example of our two day video package. It features a selection of students and staff talking about their school, footage of key subjects and sport, the arts and extra curricular activities. We used an exciting music soundtrack to highlight key sections and the school opted for a drone to capture the size of the school grounds.

Clockhouse Primary School

Headteacher Jo Savidge at Clockhouse Primary School in Romford, Essex, asked us to make a promotional video for her school, incorporating a celebration to mark their 90th Birthday. We had a great day filming the fantastic children and staff.

St. Scholastica’s Catholic Primary School

We had a lot of fun making the St. Scholastica’s school promotional video. The kids and teachers were great to work with and they also really enjoyed the experience

St. Mary’s Catholic School

St. Mary’s has a strong tradition of providing an authentic education which aims to deliver excellence for every member of their Catholic community. The school wanted to incorporate the three core values of ‘Love, Respect, Flourish’ into the video.

Priory Academy

We have worked with the Scholars’ Education Trust for many years. RBA is one of their schools and we returned once again to update their school promotional video.

Samuel Ryder Academy

Samuel Ryder Academy became the first all through school in Hertfordshire in 2013 and wanted a video production company that could film all of the different age groups from Primary right through to 6th form understanding how to approach those differing age ranges. They wanted to be distinct from the schools previous incarnation and improve perceptions in the local community.

Sir John Lawes School

The Senior Leadership Team at Sir John Lawes were keen to let the children speak for themselves in this school promotional video. Talking about the ethos and culture of the school in the Sir John Lawes Promotional video.

Swindon Academy

We have just made a suite of videos for Swindon Academy.

These include a school promotional video, a sixth form promotional video and a teacher recruitment video. We filmed over two days covering a wide breadth of the school syllabus and facilities.

Tollbar Academy

Tollbar Academy in Grimsby has 2000 students. The SLT could not have been more helpful before and during the shoot. We had a great team of staff helping us navigate the school, organise the students and ensure they and the school looked its best. Plus, we had great fun making this video!

“We are incredibly pleased that we selected Film Infinity to produce the promotional video for our outstanding Academy.  Professional from the start to the end of the process, Ian and Chris were extremely supportive and gave us the benefit of their expertise, advising us throughout.  We held a number of online meetings where we were able to share our ideas and vision – all of which Ian and Chris fulfilled.  The two days spent filming were fast-paced, organised and gave us a real opportunity to showcase our Academy to its maximum potential.  The energy, creativity and passion of Film Infinity for our project was evidenced continually and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other companies and educational establishments wishing to compile a professional, promotional video. We are extremely proud of Tollbar Academy and the video is exactly what we wanted – a huge thank you from us all!

Bullers Wood School

We combined drone footage, class room action and interviews to create this promotional video  for Bullers Wood School.  The fifteen hundred students enjoy a fantastic education located within a stunning woodland environment.

Greatfields

We have made several videos for Richard Paul at Greatfields.  He asked us to come back again to produce a virtual tour video.  The School is expanding even more, with another building phase in progress now. We are installing time lapse cameras to capture this exciting development as it grows.

“I was very impressed the first time I met Chris and Ian from Film Infinity. They had lots of ideas and they clearly knew what they were talking about. I knew straight away that they were going to produce a professional film for the school.  Communication before the shoot was clear and the information Chris and Ian gave me beforehand was very useful. This meant that on the day of the shoot, everything ran very smoothly.  We were on a very tight deadline, the editing process was quick and easy, and the video was up on our website within a week of filming.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Film Infinity. I was very impressed with professionalism and enthusiasm throughout eh process and I really enjoyed working with Chris and Ian. I absolutely love the video, it captures the heart and essence of the school. I was so impressed with the work Ian and Chris had done to produce such a fantastic video for the school”

Richard Paul-Greatfields School

Wollaston

Like many schools, Wollaston Schoolrealised that they could not hold their usual open evening this year.  They decided to create a video ‘tour’ featuring a taste of the syllabus.

The magnificent Arlo was the tour guide for the evening and did a great job presenting the video.

We had a very tight schedule, 3-8pm, but we managed to get everything done and turned the edit around super quickly in time for the original opening evening date.

Chiltern Academy

Chiltern Academy is a new free school catering for secondary education students in Luton.  It is part of the Chiltern Learning Trust. We have produced several videos for the Trust in the past and they got in touch with us to create a promotional video for this brand new state of the art school.

This was filmed over two days, and turned around within a week to co-incide with a virtual opening evening.

Chiltern Academy

Chiltern Academy needed a social media edit created from the promotional video footage that could be used on Twitter.

Ursuline High School T Level Promotion

Ursuline High School  are launching their new T Level Digital Production, Design and Development qualification in September 2020. These 2-year courses have been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses so that the content meets the needs of industry and prepares students for work.  They will be equivalent to 3 A Levels.   We were asked to create and produce a promotional video aimed at recruiting new students to this new sixth firm option.

Greatfields School

We like to meet up prior to commissioning so we can see the school environment and it allows you to ask any questions you may have about the video production process. It is important to us that you are happy working with Film Infinity Video Production. In this case we met up with the Head teacher Richard Paul and hit it off straight away.   This project was a real challenge as the school currently has only three school years housed in temporary buildings whilst their brand new school is constructed across the road.

Greatfields School Teacher Recruitment

This teacher recruitment video was made along side the school promotional video.  Careful planning of the filming schedule means we can make the best our time on site and also make sure you get the most out of your budget.

Greatfields School Testimonial

Headteacher Richard Paul talks about working with Film Infinity.  “I was very impressed with the professionalism and enthusiasm throughout the process and I really enjoyed working with Film Infinity.  I absolutely loved the video, it captures the heart and soul of the school.  I was so impressed with the work Film Infinity had done to produce such fantastic video for the school”

Samuel Ryder Academy

We have made several prospectus videos for SRA since 2012. Each year we create and develop a new concept, working closely with the staff and students to deliver another piece of innovative work.

Lauren Cradduck – Head of English at Samuel Ryder Academy talks about why the school chose Film Infinity Video Production to make their school promotional videos for the last five years.

“Film Infinity captured the ethos and values of the school perfectly with stunning footage and insightful interviews. Chris an Ian work tirelessly to film all the subjects we asked for and put our staff and students at ease with their calm and considerate approach.

We are delighted with the results as the film encapsulates school life and gives a real wow factor to our presentations on open evenings.  I highly recommend film infinity, their experience shines through and makes the whole process of film making flow smoothly”

Chiltern Learning Trust

We have just delivered a suite of six education videos for the Chiltern Learning Trust which comprises of Denbigh High School, Challney High School for Boys and Dallow Primary School.  The aim of the films is to attract and recruit new teachers to the schools within the Chiltern Learning Trust in Luton.  Filmed over three days, we shot a wealth of great footage; interviews, classroom action and location filming, resulting in a library of footage from which we could then shape into the final six edits.

Bell Cambridge

This is the one of several videos that we made for the Bell Cambridge Language School.  We worked closely with Anna and Natalie, they had a very clear idea of what they wanted and produced a great set of storyboards to work from. We were blessed with stunning weather and a very amiable collection of students and staff during the shoot. We had a very busy three day shoot, covering a vast shot list within the school and filming a variety of famous landmarks.   The videos will feature on their website and Facebook.

Bell Cambridge

“Film Infinity exceeded our expectations. With a can-do attitude nothing was too much trouble. They are not only great cameramen and producers, but they proved that they could manage any situation including directing and filming international children in London on the busiest and hottest day of the year! As for the final video, when they sent the first edit through, my reaction was ‘wow!’. In addition to all of this, they were simply just nice people to work with.”

Natalie Dawe, Marketing Manager, Bell Cambridge

Bell Cambridge

Bell had a very clear idea of what they wanted and produced a great set of storyboards to work from. We were blessed with stunning weather and a very amiable collection of students and staff during the shoot. This features one of their summer schools. The amazing facilities and buildings were great to film and we are very pleased with the results, as were Bell! The intention is to feature this main film on the web site  bellenglish.com/Cambridge and feature the teaser films on Facebook.

Oasis Academy

This video for the Oasis Academy Enfield. was filmed over several days in July and September. We managed to cover a huge variety of subjects and locations in a short space of time.  The buildings are visually stunning with lots of available light to work with.  The staff and students were superb, helping us to achieve exactly what the school wanted.  The key to successfully shooting a prospectus video is organisation and planning.  The weather, the existing timetable, staff availability are just some of the logistical elements that have to be considered when drawing up the shoot schedule.

The key to a successful school video is planning. The important points to consider are the weather, the timetable, the curriculum and the availability of staff, students, locations and facilities

We recommend allocating one member of staff to liaise with the video production crew before and during the filming, that way we can formulate a filming schedule that causes minimum disruption to the everyday running of the school.

Select a cross section of well behaved students from across the age groups who are willing and able to ‘star’ in the various curriculum scenarios. This ensures the filming process runs smoothly.

Hiring a two man film crew to film simultaneously in different parts of the school means twice as much footage can be filmed in a day.  A well planned schedule ensures we are in the right classroom at the right time and can illustrate your school in the best light.

Using a voiceover artist to narrate the film guarantees that key information is clearly and concisely delivered to potential parents and students.  We can help you write the script and select an appropriate voiceover artist.

Our equipment delivers broadcast quality 4K high definition footage that can be viewed on multiple platforms such as mobile devices, computers and TV screens. The cameras are relatively small and easy to manoeuvre enabling us to work quickly with a minimum amount of disruption.
