Talking-Head & Educational Video in Higgovale — the craft

Questions, not scripts

Reading a script to camera is a specialist skill and almost nobody has it. We work from a question list built with you a few days before the shoot: eight to fifteen questions, ordered from easy to hard, each one framed so the answer is a complete thought without needing our voice in the edit. On the day we ask them conversationally, let you restate an answer as many times as you want, and mark the take we want as we go. The result sounds like you talking, because it is — just without the ums, the false starts and the sentence you abandoned halfway.

One session, two formats

The long-form piece — typically five to twelve minutes — is where the credibility lives: full answers, B-roll of the work being discussed, on-screen titles for each question and a clean chapter structure for YouTube. The vertical cuts are where the reach lives: eight to twelve pieces of 30 to 60 seconds, each built on a single complete idea, framed 9:16 with the subject correctly positioned for the platform's safe area, burnt-in captions and a hook in the first two seconds that is a real statement rather than a stock tease. Both come from the same footage, which is why this format is the cheapest content per post we offer.
