How We Think

We find the story first.
Everything else follows from that.

As the technology gets more complex, we've found people have a harder time describing what it actually does, so instead of focusing on the technology, we focus on the value it brings. The result is a human, organic feel in everything we produce.

We focus on substance over style. When every company is making content, understanding where each piece fits into your broader pipeline is what actually sets the work apart. We work quickly and efficiently, and plug in as a genuine extension of your team.

01 / The Ask

You're hiring for video.
Here's why a studio beats a solo hire.

Your Creative Director, Video posting asks one person to own every brand film and technical demo, direct outside crews and agencies, and contribute across campaigns, launches, and recruiting, all at once. An embedded studio already has that bandwidth.

Two paths forward

Path A: Make the Hire
Timeline
At least three months, start to finish: the search, the hire, and the ramp to full output.
Bandwidth
One person owns everything, concept to final cut, with no backup when volume spikes.
All-in cost
$277,000 to $431,000 a year, plus equity, for one person
  • Salary, roughly $170,000 to $230,000 base, a typical market rate for a role like this
  • Benefits, payroll, and gear: about $59,000 to $81,000
  • Freelance crew, specialists, and agency support: $4,000 to $10,000/month
Path B: Saint Beaumont Creative
Timeline
First shoot in a week. Content live in two.
Bandwidth
A full studio that scales on demand, never one person.
All-in cost
$240,000 to $444,000 a year, for a full team
  • Team, production, and gear included
  • No benefits, payroll, or overhead
02 / The Approach

Build the engine.
Stock the library.

Shoot
Content Engine
Content Library
Track One

The Content Engine

We concept, script, and produce every piece in-house, then ship it on a consistent cadence and repurpose it across the rest of your channels.

  • Technical demos
  • Brand films
  • Recruiting & culture content
  • Campaign & launch content
+
Track Two

The Content Library

Every shoot is captured, logged, and organized into a library you own, footage that compounds into a moat competitors can't buy.

  • All footage logged and organized monthly
  • Engineer and team interviews banked for future recruiting series
  • A growing library of demo and campaign footage

03 / What We'll Make

Four formats.
Real proof for each.

01

Technical Demos

"Real progress, told right."

Robots doing dull, dirty, and dangerous work, shown clearly and built from real engineering progress, with motion graphics and VFX support so the mechanics land without overstating what they can do.

  • Real-world demo footage, on-site with the robots and engineers
02

Brand Films

"The mission, on screen."

Brand films built around the mission: making dull, dirty, and dangerous work safer, made to feel the weight of that mission, not just understand the technology.

  • Full cut plus vertical and social cutdowns
03

Recruiting & Culture Content

"The engineers behind the robots."

Culture and recruiting content that shows the engineers and team building RoboForce, built to help you find specialized hardware and robotics talent that's hard to source.

  • Team and engineer on-camera features
04

Campaign & Launch Content

"Ready when the launch is."

Campaign and launch content that ships on the day it needs to, built from the same footage library so launches don't start from scratch.

  • Short-form cuts for social, web, and sales
04 / Investment

Two formats.
One creative team.

Production
Shot on Sony FX cinema cameras, cut in Premiere Pro, animated in After Effects and Cinema 4D, graded in DaVinci Resolve.
On-site & Remote
We fly in for shoots, launches, and events. Everything else runs remotely, no daily presence to manage.

Already Proven

Our client NationGraph faced this exact choice: they'd posted for a Founding Director of Media. We convinced them to embed our studio instead. It's going so well they just signed for a full year.
