Few Kent towns pack as much onto film as Sandwich does within a short walk. There’s the Barbican gatehouse by the bridge, the boats and river walk along the Quay, Tudor and medieval frontages on the back streets, and the flat, open light out towards Sandwich Bay. Head out to Discovery Park and you’re among its labs and offices, which suit a completely different, modern look.
Our crew travels from Maidstone to Sandwich for shoots, interviews and events, bringing camera, lighting and sound kit with us. We plan the day around your site, the tide of visitors in the old town and the light. Here’s the video work we produce:
Sandwich’s historic centre is compact and busy with visitors in summer, so we scout and plan before we arrive. We’ll check where we can park kit, what time of day the Quay is quietest, and whether any locations need permission from owners. On business premises we work around your staff, safety rules and confidential areas, and we keep the crew small so the day feels relaxed rather than disruptive. We’re happy to plan the shoot with you in person beforehand, in Sandwich or at our Maidstone office, and to go through the edit together afterwards.

Video production in Sandwich: frequently asked questions
Will you come to Sandwich to film?
Yes. Our crew travels from Maidstone for every shoot. We bring everything we need, so you only have to provide the location and the people.
Can you film inside a lab or controlled area on Discovery Park?
Yes, provided your site rules allow it. We'll agree in advance which areas are off-limits, follow your safety and gowning requirements and keep screens or documents out of shot.
Can we film around the Quay and the old town?
Usually, yes. Small crews filming in public places rarely cause problems, but we'll check whether any private buildings or businesses need asking first and plan around busy times.
How long does a typical shoot take?
Most brand and promotional videos need a half day or a full day on location. Social content batches can often be filmed in a single morning.
Can you turn one shoot into content for social media?
Yes. We plan extra shots for social on the day and cut a set of short clips alongside the main film.
