Films that explain what you do without the jargon, and earn their place on a homepage.

Green Gorilla is a production house to help brands grow
We make films for businesses, and we do it as part of your team rather than at arm’s length. Brand films, TV adverts, social, events — planned so you can use them again and again, not gather dust after one campaign. Human, considered, and on your side of the table.
We work with you, not for you
Your in-house video production team for Birmingham & the West Midlands, without the overheads
We become an extension of your business or marketing team — ongoing video support, not one-off films. From short-form content and brand promos to event coverage and training videos, every shoot is planned so you can reuse it across campaigns, channels and projects. We work close enough to your team to know what you actually need, and far enough back that you don’t pay for a desk we’re not sitting at. We work with the NHS and education, logistics and retail brands, professional bodies and live events — from one-off films to multi-year partnerships.
A relationship, not a transaction
We’d rather be the crew you call for the next five years than the one you used once. Most of our work is for people we’ve made films with before.
Content you can reuse
We plan every shoot to give you more than one film — cutdowns, socials, stills — so a single day keeps earning long after we’ve packed the kit away.
Honest from the first call
We’ll tell you what a film needs, what it doesn’t, and when the honest answer is that you don’t need one at all. No jargon, no ego.
One of our partnerships
The CIPP
The Chartered Institute of Payroll Professionals is exactly what the in-house model looks like in practice. We don’t make them one film a year — we make the promos, the shorts, the coverage of their annual events, and the education pieces, coming back season after season. They brief us like colleagues, because after this many years, that’s pretty much what we are.

Common questions
How much does a video cost?
It depends on the shape of the film — shoot days, crew, whether you’re using actors, how many locations, and how many versions you need. We don’t publish a price list, because the same brief can cost very different amounts and a price list would be a lie. What we will do is talk you through what actually moves the number. Our cost guide walks through all six.
Do you film in Birmingham?
Yes, all the time. We’re based in Nuneaton, about half an hour from Birmingham and twenty minutes from Coventry, so we’re on your doorstep across Birmingham and the West Midlands — and we film nationally when the job needs it.
What kinds of video do you make?
Brand and promo films, social media films, event films, training and education films, TV adverts, plus photography and drone. Most companies need two or three of these, and it’s usually cheaper to shoot them together.
Do you do one-off films or ongoing support?
Both, but we’re built for the long run. We work like an in-house team — the CIPP, for instance, come back season after season for promos, shorts, event coverage and education films. We’d rather be the crew you call for years than the one you used once.
How long does a video take to make?
A straightforward one-day shoot is usually a few weeks from brief to delivery, and most of that is planning and editing rather than filming. Bigger jobs with casting, multiple locations or Clearcast take longer. We give you a schedule before we start, not after.
Where are you based, and do you charge to travel?
We’re in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. We work across Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester and the West Midlands, and we travel nationally. Being twenty minutes outside a city centre keeps our overheads, and your quote, lower than a Birmingham or London studio’s.
