FRENCH75 IS A TARGETED FILM CREATION COMPANYWe bring together a unique mix of marketing insight, focused creativity and production expertise, to deliver highly creative and cinematic films that are focused on very specific communication goals.MARKETING FILMFrench75 cost-effectively combines all four of the core film making disciplines in one place, and in perfect, affordable, harmony. We can take your existing agency, or internally developed brand rules, along with your business development goals, and develop a creative vision that will produce powerful, innovative and compelling films, that will add value to your existing marketing strategy.MUSIC VIDEOYou want a film that compliments every part of the track, a film that stands out, that delivers beyond the production budget, which provides an attention grabbing experience for your audience. We do all this, and with the added benefit of truly understanding how your video needs to fit in with the marketing requirements of both the track and the artist. We can help you understand or develop the persona of the artist and establish how best to engage with a specific target audience, to maximise the return on the investment. Use the video creation process to maximise the marketing potential, with additional behind the scenes footage and a ‘making of’ documentary that will make the artist more accessible for the audience. This can all be packaged up with targeted trailers that can be drip-fed out to social media followers, over an extended period, to maximise the views.
