Trusted by
Made in Edinburgh. Built to broadcast standard.
We came up through broadcast television and advertising, and we have spent more than twenty years making films for both. That is the standard we bring to every Edinburgh job, whether it is a conference highlights film, a company overview or a documentary for a broadcaster.
Being based in the city means we can be on site quickly, scout a location in person, and sit in the room with you when the edit needs a decision. Everything from the first conversation to the final delivery is handled by the same small senior team, so nothing gets lost in hand-offs.
When a production needs more people, we scale up with trusted freelance heads of department and partner facilities in Scotland, and we only bring in what the brief actually needs.

Why work with an Edinburgh production company like us.
Senior people, start to finish
The person who scopes your film is the person who makes it. No account managers between you and the work.
Broadcast habits
Films are planned before they are shot, and cut by editors who have had to hold an audience for an hour, not fifteen seconds.
Local, and quick to reach
We are in Edinburgh, so recces, shoots and edit sessions do not carry travel days or overnight costs.
Published prices
Our rate card is public, so you can see what a shoot day, an edit day or a podcast session costs before you call.
Production and post under one roof
Filming, editing, motion design, sound and delivery all stay with one team, so your film reads as one piece of work.
Honest advice
If a cheaper format would do the job better, we will say so. The question at the start of every project is what the film is actually for.
Edinburgh, the Lothians and across Scotland.
Most of our shoots are in and around Edinburgh, but we travel for the right project, in person across Scotland and the north of England, and remotely for post-production anywhere.

Video production in Edinburgh: your questions.
How much does video production cost in Edinburgh?
It depends on how many shoot days, locations and edit days the film needs. Our published rate card at flayrfx.com/rates shows our day rates and package prices, and we give a fixed quote once we understand the brief.
What kind of production company is Flayr?
Flayr is an independent film and video production company with studios in Edinburgh and London. We make corporate films, event videos, adverts and branded content, documentaries and podcasts, and provide post-production for other production companies.
Do you only work in Edinburgh?
No. Edinburgh is our base, and we regularly work across the Lothians, Fife, Glasgow and central Scotland. We travel further for the right project, and post-production work can be done remotely for clients anywhere.
How long does a corporate video take to make?
A straightforward corporate film usually takes two to four weeks from brief to delivery, depending on scripting, how many locations there are and how quickly feedback comes back. We agree a schedule at the start so you know what to expect.
Can you film our event in Edinburgh?
Yes. We film conferences, awards, product launches and festival events in and around Edinburgh, and can turn round social clips quickly so you can post while the event is still being talked about.
