Frequently Asked Questions

Northern Goose is a strategic content partner based in Newcastle upon Tyne that plans and produces video content, brand storytelling and creative campaigns for brands and organisations. Founded in 2019, we combine content strategy with award-winning video production and photography, working as a long-term partner rather than a one-off supplier. Clients span the sport, travel and commercial sectors and include Sky Sports, TUI, Hilton, The FA and the BBC.

A strategic content partner starts with your business goals and audience, then plans and produces content designed to achieve them — rather than simply filming what you ask for. At Northern Goose that means understanding your brand and objectives before any cameras roll, building a content system that supports clear communication and measurable outcomes, and staying involved as your long-term partner as those needs evolve.

We create brand films, creative campaigns, social-first content, TV commercials, promotional videos, corporate and internal communications, employer branding, event coverage, documentary-style films, drone footage and commercial photography. Every format is chosen to suit the platform and the audience it needs to reach, from a 15-second social ad to a long-form brand story.

A social-first video typically takes 1–2 weeks, while a full brand film or commercial production usually takes 4–8 weeks from concept to final delivery. Timelines depend on scope, locations, crew size and post-production requirements, and we confirm a detailed schedule during your initial strategy session.

Video production costs vary with the length of the film, number of filming days and locations, crew and equipment needs, and the amount of post-production, so we quote each project individually. After a free initial strategy session we provide a detailed, itemised quote tailored to your brief and budget. We work with organisations of all sizes, from local businesses to national brands.

Yes. Northern Goose has licensed drone operators and professional aerial filming equipment, and all flights are carried out in compliance with CAA regulations. Drone footage is ideal for establishing shots, property and destination content, events and large-scale sport.

Yes. We specialise in social-first content designed for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn and Facebook, cut to the format, length and pacing each platform rewards. We often produce social ads alongside a longer brand film from the same shoot so one production serves every channel.

Yes. Alongside video production we provide commercial photography including events, corporate headshots, product and brand photography. Many clients bundle photography with a video shoot so the whole campaign shares one consistent visual style.

Northern Goose is based in Newcastle upon Tyne in North East England and works with clients across the UK and internationally. We have produced content across the UK and Europe and further afield; for projects that involve travel we cover logistics in the quote.

A free strategy session is a conversation about your goals, target audience, budget, timeline and creative direction, ending with clear recommendations on the content that will work best for your brand. There is no obligation, and it gives you an actionable starting point whether or not you go on to work with us.

Northern Goose leads with strategy, not just production: every project starts with your objectives and audience, and the content is built to drive a specific action. That approach, combined with award-winning production and experience working with major brands in sport, travel and commercial sectors, is why clients treat us as a long-term partner rather than a supplier.
