Video production company in Dublin: films and ads from one team
Video production and managed Meta and Google ads from one Dublin team, for businesses across Ireland.
In short: Blue Motion Media is a Dublin video production company that makes brand films, customer testimonials, case-study videos, social reels, offer-led video ads, event coverage and drone footage for businesses across Ireland. The same team can run those videos as Meta and Google ads. Finished videos are usually back within 7 to 10 days of the shoot, with revisions included. You own them, you get the raw footage too, and one well-planned shoot day gives two to three months of content.
Who it is for
- Irish businesses selling a considered purchase, such as solar, home improvement, clinics and specialist retail
- Owner-operators who need a steady flow of video for social and ads without running shoots themselves
- Brands that need a brand film or founder story for the website and sales meetings
- Conferences, summits and training days that need highlight films, speaker interviews and social cuts
- Schools, colleges and charities that need one film for donors, sponsors or parents
What you get
Planning, scripts and shot lists
A 30-minute strategy call, then scripts, interview questions and a shot list for every deliverable, written before anyone picks up a camera.
A fully crewed shoot day
A half or full day with cinema cameras, lighting, sound and drone, and a crew built around the brief, with production led by Joel Zeiser, a documentary-trained director.
Full edit and finishing
Every video is edited and finished with sound design, motion graphics, colour grade and music licensed for paid ads, plus subtitles where they help.
Every format you need
Each video is cut in the formats it needs: 16:9 for YouTube, your website and screens, 9:16 for Reels, Stories and Shorts, and 1:1 square versions, delivered in high resolution in a shared Google Drive. Vertical 4:5 feed versions are available on request.
You own the videos
The finished videos are yours, ready to post on your website and social channels or to play in sales meetings. You also get the raw footage from the shoot, and revisions to the edits are included.
Optional Meta and Google ads
The same team can run the videos as Facebook, Instagram, Search and YouTube ads, with conversion tracking through Google Tag Manager and a monthly report on leads and cost per lead.
How it works
Strategy call
A 30-minute call to map a content plan around your business, your buyers and where each video will run. You get a quote for your project after it, not a menu price.
Scripts and shot lists
We write the scripts, questions and shot lists up front and give every deliverable a speaker and a format, so the shoot day runs tight and nothing gets missed.
Shoot day
One half or full day, with every deliverable shot back to back from the plan so the crew never has to reset. Interviews are run documentary-style from prepared questions, so people answer in their own words.
Edit and delivery
Finished videos usually come back within 7 to 10 days of the shoot, in a shared Google Drive, in high resolution and every format you need.
Ads, if you want them
If you want the videos run as ads, we set up tracking first, launch testimonial and offer-led ads on Meta and Google, A/B test them and scale the ones that bring enquiries.
What video production services does Blue Motion Media offer in Ireland?
Blue Motion Media's video production services cover seven kinds of video. Each is planned for where it will run and cut in the formats that placement needs, from 16:9 for your website and YouTube to 9:16 for Reels, Stories and Shorts and 1:1 square, so one shoot covers your website, your social channels and your ads.
- Brand films and founder stories. A 16:9 film for your website, YouTube and sales meetings. For ROAM Adventure Trailers that meant a 1:07 cinematic brand film and a 3:57 founder film from one day in the Wicklow Mountains.
- Customer testimonials. Real customers, unscripted, filmed at their home or premises in a two to three hour window, cut for social and for sales pitches. More on our customer testimonial video production.
- Case-study videos. One customer project, filmed in the customer's home or premises, with the finished work and their genuine reactions on screen.
- Social reels and short explainers. Vertical 9:16 pieces that answer the questions buyers ask before they enquire. The explainers and customer stories in our Evolve Eco Solutions case study run 19 to 40 seconds.
- Product and offer-led video ads. Several hooks and versions of one offer, so Meta and Google have real options to test. For product pages and YouTube, see our product demonstration videos.
- Event and conference coverage. Highlight films, speaker interviews and social cuts, with social edits within days and the highlight film within a week. See event and conference video production.
- Drone footage. Aerial shots of installs and landscapes, cut into brand films, explainers and customer films.
What does documentary production experience bring to a business video?
Most people are not natural on camera, and viewers can tell when someone is reading a script. Joel Zeiser, our co-founder and director, trained as a documentary filmmaker and has shot documentary projects from Tanzania to Shanghai. We bring the same methods to business films: a prepared interview rather than lines to learn, questions about why a customer bought rather than what they bought, and cutaways planned shot by shot so the edit is not one long talking head.
That is how the Belvedere College Access Programme film was made: one prepared interview, lit on location, every cutaway planned at the recce, and a 3:19 documentary-style donor film from a single shoot day.
How long does video production take in Dublin?
A simple social or testimonial video usually takes one to three weeks from brief to delivery, and a corporate or brand film two to six weeks. The shoot itself is often a single day; most of the time goes into planning and the edit. At Blue Motion Media that means a 30-minute strategy call, scripts and shot lists written for you, one half or full shoot day, and finished videos back within 7 to 10 days of the shoot. Customers who appear in testimonials usually give two to three hours, not a full day.
Location can add lead time. In the Dublin City Council area, filming on private property, such as your premises, a showroom or a customer's home, does not need council consent, but you should get the owner's permission (Dublin City Film Office). To film in public spaces in Dublin city, Dublin City Council asks for its filming application at least seven working days before the shoot (Dublin City Council). Outside the city council's area, check with the local council.
Drone shots need their own planning. A professional film company using a drone in the Dublin City Council area must apply to the Dublin City Film Office for take-off and landing approval, even when taking off from private property (Dublin City Council). Drone flights are regulated too: the Irish Aviation Authority says anyone flying a drone that weighs over 250g or has a camera is legally required to register as a drone operator (Irish Aviation Authority). Blue Motion Media handles the filming application and drone approvals for its shoots, which is why we plan any street or drone shots when the scripts are written, not on the day. This is general information, not legal advice.

Questions we get asked
How is a Blue Motion Media video production project priced?
Blue Motion Media quotes each project after a 30-minute strategy call rather than publishing a price list, because the price depends on shoot days, crew, locations and how many finished edits you need. For context, our video production cost guide puts the 2026 Irish market range for a short social or testimonial video at €1,500 to €5,000 ex VAT, and a corporate or brand film at €5,000 to €25,000. Those are market ranges, not our prices. If we also run your ads, the ad spend is paid to Meta or Google directly and is separate from production.
How many videos can we get from one shoot day?
A well-planned Blue Motion Media shoot day usually gives six to fifteen short vertical videos, one longer piece such as a brand film or customer story, and 16:9 versions of the best short pieces, which is two to three months of content. The trick is writing every deliverable before the day, with a speaker and a format for each. Plantech got sixteen finished assets, fifteen reels and a website film, from one day on their stand at the Ideal Home Show in the RDS.
What if I or my staff don't want to be on camera?
You do not have to start on camera. Some videos need no one on screen at all: the stove showcase we made for Dream Home Co. is a mood film made entirely from b-roll. When you are comfortable, short pieces to camera can follow, then your customers. Our background is in documentary, so we know how to put people at ease on camera and draw out answers that sound genuine. People get prepared questions and answer in their own words rather than learning a script, which is why they come across as themselves.
Why use the same team for video production and ads?
Using one team for video and ads means the people making the videos see which ones bring in enquiries and build the next round on that evidence. Blue Motion Media is a creative video agency that also runs the ads: we shoot and edit the content, then run it as Meta (Facebook, Instagram) and Google (Search, YouTube) ads, with conversion tracking through Google Tag Manager and a monthly report on leads and cost per lead. Evolve Eco Solutions has had 12,000+ leads over 18 months from video production plus YouTube and Meta ads, run as one funnel. The ads are optional: production can be booked on its own.
Do you make documentary-style films for businesses?
Yes. Blue Motion Media makes documentary-style brand films, founder stories, customer stories and donor films, built on prepared interviews with real people rather than actors. Joel Zeiser, the co-founder who leads production, trained as a documentary filmmaker, and his work won at the RED Movie Awards in Reims, the SEVIFF Sevilla Indie Film Festival and the Travel Beyond Film Festival in 2025. For Belvedere College we made a 3:19 documentary-style donor film about its Access Programme from one prepared interview and a single shoot day.
