Quality Assured
We used Sightline’s skills to help develop a series of videos for one of KPC’s oldest clients.
Inevitably the brief changed and the spec grew but the team at Sightline kept pace with our changes and helped us to develop some excellent films that have impressed all of us. Every step of the way they brought advice and expertise to develop the best result.
I won’t hesitate to recommend them.
Working with Sightline Media is, without question, the best value training video production I have ever invested in. They are easy to do business with, and deliver high quality training videos on time and to the brief.
Sightline have been an absolute pleasure to work with, because they offer a quality service, transparent pricing and turn things around quickly (even when the client – me – misses the odd deadline).
They understand that the service and product needs to fit the customer and it’s need, not bend the customer to fit the service and product.
Would I recommend them? Yes. I have worked with them before, twice — and I will work with them again, definitely.
I have had the pleasure of working with Sightline on a number of educational projects and I have been hugely impressed with their strong editorial values, relationship management with our authors, not to mention the final product.
The Senior Producers are not only very professional in what they do but also bags of fun to work with!
We have worked with Sightline on a variety of projects over the years, covering the hospitality sector, aviation industry, property, and manufacturing.
The team are true professionals in every aspect of their work. From providing knowledgeable and practical support with creating the storyboard and planning the shoot, to working on the script and carefully guiding non-professionals to talk on camera with confidence and enthusiasm.
Importantly, they understand how to interpret a vision whilst keeping a close eye on the commercial objectives of any project. They can troubleshoot and come up with creative alternatives too. Anyone choosing Sightline is in safe hands.
We need someone who we can trust and collaborate with. We have worked with Sightline seven or eight times. They are really easy to work with, flexible, and give us ideas; we collaborate through and through.
They deliver on time, to a really good quality, and at a cost-effective price. In our last project for the UK Civil Service, we produced a total of 67 short assessment videos over 6 days using green screen filming techniques.
I am delighted with our video, your attention to detail and listening to our brief and providing guidance has resulted in a video we are very proud of and truly reflects the quality of our product.
The attention to detail and time taken by Keith and Ashley to deliver exactly what we requested has been exemplary. A very professional service from start to finish. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sightline.
I have used Sightline for a couple of videos and have been really impressed both times. They take the time to really understand what you are trying to achieve – and it feels like a partnership to get to an end result that everyone is really happy with.
Their expertise goes further than just purely shooting video though, which is very helpful when it comes to sourcing models, stock footage and writing compelling voiceovers. I find the team very enjoyable to work with and would not hesitate to recommend them based on their technical skills and flexible approach.
I have used Sightline for years while working for several different organisations. Their films are professional, keenly priced and an effective means of communicating our messages. They help make difficult subjects easier to grasp and add pizzazz to our award ceremony videos.
Nothing is ever too much trouble and by anticipating issues, they have come to feel like our own in-house team.
Not every company I work with operates like that, and when they don’t, I always think, “Well, it’s not like this with Sightline.” They have set a high bar for my other suppliers.
We have been using the services of Sightline for well over a decade. The team has produced a large number of engaging videos covering project reports, news updates, health and safety performance, training, employee case studies, and animations dealing with culture and career paths.
Many of the videos are produced for our road shows and then repurposed for our website, social media, and sales presentations, giving us an excellent return on our investment.

“The devil is in the detail”, so the work we put into this important stage will provide the backbone for efficiently managing and executing the video production, and ensuring it delivers exactly what you expect.
We will work with you to firm up the video content, develop the storyboard, and plan and schedule each stage of production—including the filming logistics.
We always plan to make the maximum use of the time available on each filming day.

Post Production
We use Adobe Premier Pro editing software, which provides the greatest flexibility, speed, precision, and visual and audio quality.
We use Adobe After Effects for creating high-end graphics and animations.
If your video requires a voice-over, we will submit a selection of voice actors so that together we can select the most appropriate style and tone of voice for your video.
Music helps to set the tone, mood, and pace of a video. We use a number of high-quality online production music libraries as a music resource. We pay a one-off license fee for Royalty Free music with unlimited worldwide use in perpetuity.
Of course, if you want music that is not off the shelf, we will commission it for you and manage the project throughout.
Quality Control is applied at every stage of production to ensure our best use of time and resources, we deliver everything we promised and within the agreed timescale, the video successfully and accurately delivers the messages, it is of the highest technical standard, and we deliver best value.
