Environmental Video Production | Powerful Film for NERC
Environmental video production is at the heart of our collaboration with the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), and our latest film for NERC highlights the powerful role of storytelling in science communication. This dynamic production combines animation and live-action footage to celebrate some of the unsung heroes working behind the scenes at the NERC head office. This film plays a vital role in engaging internal teams and external stakeholders
Bringing Environmental Research to Life
As specialists in environmental video production, we understand how to capture the complexity and significance of scientific work in a way that’s both engaging and accessible. For the NERC project, our team managed every stage of production, from initial concept through to final delivery.
We conducted interviews, scripted the narrative, arranged and executed all on-site filming, and produced custom animation elements. The result is a visually compelling and emotionally resonant short film that communicates the importance of environmental research while spotlighting the people who make it possible.
To ensure authenticity and technical accuracy, we worked closely with NERC’s internal teams, conducting pre-interviews with key stakeholders and fact-checking all visuals and messaging.
The animations were developed to reflect real data, internal workflows, and project outcomes, helping contextualise NERC’s contributions to UK science and the global environment.
Long-Standing Partnership with NERC
NERC, the Natural Environment Research Council, is the UK’s leading public funder of environmental science. Their mission is to fund independent research, training, and innovation that drive responsible environmental management and sustainable economic growth. Their work underpins crucial insights into biodiversity, climate change, and the natural systems that support life on Earth.
We have proudly partnered with NERC for over five years, producing a range of films that support their public outreach, internal communications, and research storytelling. Our deep understanding of environmental narratives allows us to craft content that resonates with both scientific and non-specialist audiences.
Over the course of this partnership, we have helped NERC communicate complex scientific initiatives in areas such as climate resilience, sustainable oceans, and green innovation.
