VIDEO PRODUCTION SERVICE
BRANDED CONTENT & ADVERTISING
Video That Works as Hard as Your Business Does
Advertising gets skipped. Branded content gets watched.
The difference is simple. Advertising interrupts people. Branded content gives them something worth their time, a story, a perspective, a moment that connects your brand to something they care about.
At Flayr FX, we produce branded content and advertising video for businesses that want their audience to feel something, not just see something.
What Is Branded Content?
Branded content sits between a traditional advert and a documentary. It leads with a story rather than a sales message. Your brand is present, but the content earns attention on its own terms.
It works because people share things they find genuinely interesting. They do not share adverts.
Examples include:
- A short film built around a customer story
- A behind-the-scenes look at how your product is made
- A documentary-style piece about a cause your brand supports
- A series of character-led films for social media
- A campaign built around a cultural moment your audience cares about
Advertising Video
Sometimes you need something more direct. A product launch film. A 30-second pre-roll. A campaign asset built to drive a specific action.
We produce advertising video that is clear, well-crafted and built around your objective. Whether the goal is awareness, consideration or conversion, the film is designed with that outcome in mind from the first frame.
We handle:
- Brand films and hero content
- Product and launch videos
- Testimonial and social proof films
- Campaign video for paid social and digital
- TV and online ad production
Our Approach
Good branded content starts with understanding your audience and what they already care about. We work with you to find the story that connects your brand to that.
We then handle everything from concept and scripting through to shoot, edit, sound design and delivery. You get a finished film, not a rough cut to finish yourself.
If you have an agency or in-house creative team, we work comfortably as a production partner. If you need us to lead the creative from scratch, we do that too.
Why Branded Content Outperforms Traditional Advertising
The numbers are consistent across the industry. Branded content generates significantly higher engagement than standard display or pre-roll advertising. Audiences who watch branded content show stronger brand recall and higher purchase intent than those exposed to traditional ads.
More importantly, it builds something that a 30-second ad rarely does: trust.
People buy from brands they feel they know. Branded content is how you build that feeling at scale.
Who We Work With
We work with marketing teams, brand managers and agency partners across Edinburgh and the UK. Our clients range from consumer brands running social campaigns to corporate organisations building thought leadership content.
If your brand has a story worth telling, we want to hear it.
