Every person on this page started with the same feeling you might have right now: wondering whether video would actually work for them. Here’s what happened next.
Client: Pabulum Catering [Corporate Services]
The Challenge: Pabulum’s “usual” presentations weren’t delivering results anymore, and their hit rate was declining. They needed to freshen their approach, moving to a hybrid format where video handled the storytelling, leaving the presenters free to answer questions. Crucially, they needed to demonstrate the authentic culture and personality of their on-site teams without physically bringing them to the pitch.
The MPV Solution:
The Result:
£300k contract won on first pitch using video.
ROI: 1,900% on production spend (£15k investment).
Client: PayComplete [FinTech / Cash Management]
The Challenge: Launching a complex hardware/software solution to a global B2B audience with a tight deadline. They needed to explain technical machinery, but the units were too heavy to transport to a standard studio.
The MPV Solution:
The Result: “MP Video Production brought clarity and professionalism from day one. We got more value from the footage than we thought possible.”
The Result:
Product launch completed on schedule.
Client: Bring Me The Horizon / Teenage Cancer Trust [Live Events / Charity]
The Challenge: A one-night-only charity show at the Royal Albert Hall with a full orchestra. No re-takes. No second chances. The film had to be cinematic and commercially viable to raise funds for the charity.
The MPV Solution: We coordinated a 16-camera broadcast unit, managing the entire technical workflow to BBC standards while keeping costs tight to maximize the donation value.
The Result:
Client: Incuhive [Carbon Reduction / Agriculture]
The Challenge: An ambitious year-long documentary tracking low-carbon fertiliser trials—critical for the local farming community. No in-house video team. Budget couldn’t stretch to traditional production costs (£15k-£20k industry standard).
The Solution: We designed an innovative “Remote Production” workflow. Built a DIY filming kit, trained their team to capture footage themselves, and provided year-long story guidance. We then edited their footage into a broadcast-standard documentary.
The Result:
Professional 14-minute film delivered for ~£4k (compared to £15k-£20k typical industry cost). Used to engage councils, farmers, and stakeholders.
Quote: “They gave us the confidence and structure to tell our story ourselves—then made it look like we’d hired a full production company.”
The Challenge:
Nicky Kildunne (FSB Development Manager) was posting static images on LinkedIn. Average engagement: ~40 views per post. She needed a sustainable way to raise the FSB’s local profile without spending hours on video.
The Solution:
Part of a bespoke FSB training cohort. We designed a streamlined workflow: film, edit, and publish weekly videos in under one hour.
The Result:
The Challenge: Steve (project management consultant) was overthinking video—worried about lighting, delivery, polish.
The Shift: Stopped waiting for “perfect” and just hit record.
The Result:
Posted his first “rough” video. Hated it. Few weeks later, signed his biggest contract.
Client’s reason: “You felt real. Everyone else looked like a corporate robot.”
Lesson: Polish doesn’t build trust. Humanity does.
The Challenge: Kristy (consultant, Zest Consulting) was posting text and images. Low engagement.
The Shift: Started posting simple videos.
The Result:
“Way more traction on social vs text/images—far more comments, way more reshares.”
Quote: “Video felt like a minefield. Now I just get on and do it.”
The Challenge: Andrea (AW Fire) was pulling favours for video edits. Inconsistent posting.
The Shift: Learned to create her own videos.
The Result:
Published consistently. Started getting recognised at industry conferences.
Quote: “Great for business. Can’t put a price on that.”
The Challenge: Alan (Project Director) thought his video problem was technical—camera settings, editing software, production quality. He was stuck trying to learn the “how” before understanding the “why.”
The Shift: We stopped him focusing on the camera and started focusing on the Client Avatar. The course reframed video as a messaging tool, not a technical skill.
The Result:
Complete mindset shift—from “I need better gear” to “I need clearer messaging.”
Quote: “I expected a course about cameras and editing. What I got was something far more valuable—a total mindset shift. It made me stop and really think about my message, my brand, and who I want to speak to.”
The Challenge: Jaycee (Wellness Founder) was stuck in tech overwhelm, self-doubt, and fear of being visible. She thought video required performance skills she didn’t have.
The Shift: We reframed video from a “Performance” to a “Service.” By focusing on helping her audience (not impressing them), the fear of the camera evaporated.
The Result:
From zero videos (months of paralysis) to publishing 2 videos per week consistently.
Quote: “I’m keeping to two videos a week. It’s a powerful way to communicate who you are and what you do. I finally feel like my videos reflect who I am.”
