The beginning for Manchester Video Production company, Rhodon Films.
The Manchester Video Production company, Rhodon Films, has an interesting origin story. It all began on the set of an Iceland Christmas campaign. There, Jason, the art director, found himself chatting with Paul, the cameraman.
At the time, Jason was facing business challenges. He had recently launched a chocolate company with his Michelin-trained pastry chef partner. However, they were struggling to showcase their products’ high quality and meticulous standards through traditional media.
The Film that changed everything
Coincidentally, DSLR cameras were making their debut on TV and film sets. Intrigued by this new technology, Jason approached Paul with an idea. He asked if Paul could use a DSLR to create a video for the chocolate company. Paul was excited about this opportunity. He saw the potential to bring high-quality video content to small businesses, a service typically reserved for big brands with massive budgets.
The resulting film was far from perfect. Nevertheless, it opened their eyes to new possibilities. They realised they could help smaller businesses leverage video just like industry giants.
Soon after, the chocolate film gained attention. This led to more projects for other businesses. Eventually, Rhodon Films was born. Since then, our Manchester video production team has refined its skills. We’ve learned to create videos that not only inform but also sell.
Moreover, we’ve adopted storytelling techniques from the film industry. These help build emotional connections and trust with audiences. These are key elements that big brands use to captivate viewers.
Video Production Success
Our success stems from the high standards we developed while working with major brands. In video marketing, quality is crucial. The perceived cost of a film, along with its marketing investment, greatly influences how a product or service is viewed. This explains why brands invest millions in advertising during events like the Super Bowl.
One aspect we particularly enjoyed about working with big brands was staying current. We loved keeping up with the latest video production technology and techniques. Today, as a leading Manchester video production company, we maintain that passion. We incorporate AI and the latest innovations to help our clients stay competitive.
Jason
Jason, the son of an artist, has always had a passion for imagery. He honed his skills in branding as a manager for top retailers before being recognised by top brands for his eye for detail and enthusiasm for life. Seeking a new challenge, he ventured into TV production and worked his way up to becoming a Production Designer for national TV ads and films. He also used his branding expertise to launch a successful chocolate brand with his former partner, which was sold at top retailers and served in prestigious venues across the North West. Through this experience, he realised the importance of effectively communicating a business’s unique value to stand out from competitors. Now, as a Director, he helps businesses use the power of moving images to expand their reach.
