Your partner for creating chemistry with your audience.

Our work Let's talk

Let's start at the beginning.

We just get it. Clearhead is a creative agency built on instinct, experience, and two decades of making things that work. No junior handoffs. No lengthy onboarding. Just senior creative people who hit the ground running.

It started in 2007 with two friends, Alex and Gavin, making videos for brands at a time when that was a brand-new idea. Seventeen years later, the approach is the same: solve the problem, tell the story, and make it stick.

Since then, Clearhead has grown into a full creative agency, offering design, video, photography, web, and virtual events. Not because we wanted to do everything, but because our clients kept bringing us harder problems. That breadth is what lets us see the full picture and give you a joined-up answer, not just a single deliverable.

What it's like to work with us.

Most agencies make you feel like a client. We make you feel like a collaborator. From the first conversation, you'll notice that things move quickly and feel easy. That's not luck, it's what happens when you work with people who have seen enough to know what you need, and are confident enough to say so.

You won't be briefing a room full of strangers. You won't be passed down to someone more junior once the pitch is won. You'll be working directly with the people whose names are on the door, creative directors who still make things, not just manage them. We're instinctive. We work fast when it matters, we push back when we should, and we bring ideas you didn't ask for, because that's usually where the best work lives.

Frequently Asked Queations.

What does a strategic video production agency do?

We help organisations plan, create and use video as part of a wider content strategy. That includes defining the story, structuring content across priorities, and producing films that work across campaigns, websites and social media. The focus is not just on making videos, but on making them useful over time.

Are you a video production agency or a content strategy partner?

We do both. We start with content strategy, then move into video production. This means the work supports student recruitment, brand awareness and stakeholder engagement in a connected way, rather than as separate campaigns.

What makes your approach to video production different?

Most video production agencies deliver individual films. We design content so it works across multiple outputs, including recruitment campaigns, social media and website content. This helps organisations build consistency and reduce the need for repeated production.

Who do you work with?

We work with universities, further education colleges and public sector organisations. These teams often need to communicate with multiple audiences at once, including prospective students, adult learners, employers and partners.

What problems do you solve for marketing teams?

Many teams are producing good content, but it is fragmented. Campaigns don’t connect, messaging changes, and content is not reused effectively. We help bring structure so video content supports a clear strategy and builds over time.

How does your video production process work?

We begin with understanding your audience, priorities and existing content. From there, we develop a clear narrative and plan what needs to be created. Filming and production are then designed to deliver multiple pieces of content from a single project.

Do you only create large video campaigns?

No. We work on both individual projects and larger content systems. Even when producing a single film, we plan it so it can support wider marketing activity across channels.

Can you support student recruitment video campaigns?

Yes. We regularly produce video content for student recruitment, including campaign films, course level content and student stories. The aim is to help prospective students understand the offer and see themselves within it.

How do you measure success in video marketing?

We look at how content performs across its full lifecycle. That includes engagement, reach and how often content is reused across campaigns, social media and websites. Strong performance comes from consistency, not just one off views.

Why choose Clearhead as a video production partner?

Because we combine content strategy and video production. That means the work is planned with purpose, produced efficiently, and designed to support long-term marketing activity rather than a single campaign.
