Commercial Production Brighton

insight

Why do some commercials pay for themselves and others just fill the break? It comes down to two things: a strong idea, and a director who can pull it off on the day. Everything else is logistics.

We make 30 and 60 second commercials end-to-end from our Brighton studio, working with brands and agencies across the UK. Treatment, casting, shoot, edit, grade and Clearcast delivery run from one base, with trusted specialists brought in for VFX or sound where a job needs them. London is a short train ride up the line when a brief calls for it.

If your campaign, launch or big idea needs moving image that actually moves people, let’s talk.

The how.

Action

Good commercials are shaped by a director, not assembled by committee. We bring a director onto the script early, build the shoot around their vision and keep the team close, so creative and production decisions happen together. What reaches the screen carries real craft and arrives ready to air.

Director-Led Craft

Our director roster spans performance, comedy, documentary, product and visual-led work, so we can match the director to the script rather than to the schedule.

You meet them at the briefing and work with them through the shoot. The roster and their reels sit on our directors page.

One Team, End to End

One Team, End to End

Concept, pre-production, shoot, edit and grade run through one team, with trusted specialists brought in for VFX or sound design when a job calls for it.

That team works alongside the director from the cutting room to the mastered file, which keeps the creative intact and the schedule tight. Fewer hand-offs, a quicker route from rushes to finished commercial.

Broadcast-Ready Delivery

We work to Clearcast standards and deliver mastered files in whatever format the broadcaster or platform needs, from ITV and Channel 4 to VOD and paid social.

Cutdowns, vertical versions and platform edits come from the same shoot and the same edit, so the look stays consistent and the budget stays in check. Our Brighton base keeps us close to the south coast and within easy reach of London for one-day shoots.

"We’ve been working with gusto for over two years now and it’s been a really good and creative collaboration. We’ve developed, written, and produced close to 50 videos together, all with a focus on honest, down-to-earth storytelling."

Garry Sonneborn, Content Creation Leader

"The campaign the team produced is better than we could have imagined and that is in large part due to the dedication and attention to detail from the Gusto team. They brought it to life in a way which feels so appropriate to our charity brand."

Tamsin Haines, Senior Brand Marketing Manager

"You have crafted work that is not only visually stunning, but perfectly encapsulates the story behind the guitar and the journey of its evolution. We have had amazing feedback about the guitar over the last 24 hours, but also about the quality of the content, which is rare."
