02 The Problem · The Partnership
Incoming requests Many ideas. Many priorities.
Outcomes Limited output. Many wait.
Too many requests. Not enough capacity. The bottleneck creates delays, trade-offs and missed opportunities.
Your marketing and communications team already knows what needs to go out. The hard part is producing enough high-quality content, consistently, and getting it ready on time.
Reserved monthly production capacity turns scattered one-off projects into a planned content cycle.
The Third Eye Production Partnership gives you that planned cycle: reserved monthly capacity, agreed production dates and one team handling the work across every format.

What reliable production looks like when the campaign calendar keeps moving.
What started as a single production enquiry grew into a monthly partnership, producing advertising video and light animation through one production team.
View Case StudyA continuing production relationship that transforms conferences and professional events into highlight films, photography, social content and reusable brand assets.
Production support across purpose-led campaigns, combining interviews, documentary-style storytelling and campaign visuals into content designed for multiple audiences and platforms.
In a free 20-minute review, we look at your current content and next campaign. You leave with three content gaps, three story ideas and one recommended campaign to tackle first.
No charge The 20-minute review is free for qualifying companies.
Turnaround We discuss the recommendations in your 20-minute review.
We identify three gaps in what your current content explains, demonstrates or proves to your audience.
We suggest three stories your people, customers or products could tell, linked to your next campaign.
We recommend the next campaign to prioritise and the content it needs.
If production support would help, we explain the capacity that fits. Detailed creative development begins with the paid programme.
The review is a focused conversation about your current content and next priority. A detailed production plan, scripts and creative development form part of the paid programme.
Tell us about your campaigns, production requirements and timing.
We discuss your current content and upcoming priorities in a 20-minute call.
We discuss the recommendations in your 20-minute review.
If there is a fit, we recommend the production capacity required to implement it.
There is no charge for the review if your company qualifies and no obligation to continue. It is for organisations with recurring content needs, an internal owner for marketing and communications, and a budget for production.
A new supplier has to learn your brand, your people and how your team works from scratch. A long-term production partner carries that knowledge into the next campaign.
Each production cycle starts from what the last one learned, not from a blank brief.
The Third Eye Production Partnership
Choose the production your next campaign needs, then choose once-off delivery or ongoing support. Each level shows its base production allowance and an ongoing partnership price with extra campaign support. Film lengths, clip counts, photography quantities, revisions and production requirements are agreed in your proposal. Simpler interviews can produce more short clips; scripted ads and more involved reels may produce fewer. Podcasts can use part of your booked production time alongside other filming.

Focused Production

Reserved team capacity, scoped to your content plan
The operating modelThird Eye Media becomes part of how the organisation runs production.
Once-off production covers one agreed project. Partnerships run for 12 months, paid monthly in advance. Your production allowance renews each month. Film lengths, design, revisions and delivery dates are agreed in your proposal. Embedded commitments are scoped individually.
Your marketing and communications team sets the priorities. We turn them into planned, produced and delivered content.
What the campaign or communication needs to achieve.
The information, guidelines and existing assets we need to do the work well.
The people, products and internal coordination required for production.
Timely decisions and one clear round of feedback from your team.
Provided by your team or covered through an approved additional production budget.
We turn your priorities into concepts, scripts, shot lists and a clear production plan.
We manage production dates, crew, equipment and logistics.
We handle the filming, photography and production team needed to get the work done.
Editing, graphic design, light animation and versions for the platforms you need.
We manage revisions, final delivery and keep your completed files organised.
Your team can provide these, or we can source and manage them through an approved separate production budget.
We agree on the production dates, approval windows and final delivery dates before the work begins so that you can plan around them.
If we miss an agreed final delivery deadline for reasons within our control:
The guarantee applies when the agreed scope stays the same and your team provides the information, access, assets, feedback and approvals we need by the agreed dates.
It does not apply when delays are caused by late approvals, missing access or assets, major scope changes, unavailable client resources, third parties outside our control or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.
The Third Eye Production Partnership is for established marketing and communications teams that need reliable production month after month, not just a supplier for the occasional project.
Your team regularly needs video, photography, graphic design, light animation or campaign content.
There is always something coming up: a launch, campaign, event, product priority, paid campaign or internal communication.
Your team is spending too much time finding suppliers, briefing new people, checking availability or chasing delivery.
You want one production team that gets to know your organisation and becomes easier to work with over time.
You have a focused monthly content need or a campaign programme to plan across a quarter.
Partnerships run for 12 months, paid monthly in advance. Your production allowance renews each month.
A single shoot or isolated design project does not need recurring production capacity.
This partnership is built around reliability, continuity and reserved capacity rather than being the lowest-cost production option.
Your team does not yet need content produced month after month.
Without these, we cannot keep production moving on schedule.
This model works best when that monthly investment fits comfortably within your ongoing production budget.

Request Your Free Content Gap ReviewNo. The 20-minute review is free for qualifying companies.
We check that there is a recurring content need and a good fit. During the review, we discuss three content gaps, three story ideas and one recommended next campaign, with no obligation to continue.
A monthly partnership gives your marketing and communications team reserved production capacity, agreed planning and delivery dates, and a team that gets to know your brand.
Instead of sourcing suppliers, requesting quotes, rebuilding the brief and dealing with inconsistent quality from different teams, production becomes part of your campaign and communications calendar.
Partnerships run for 12 months, paid monthly in advance. Your production allowance renews each month.
Before the partnership begins, your proposal sets the monthly capacity, deliverables, revision allowance and delivery schedule. Monthly production is paid in advance.
Annual partnerships include annual campaign planning, advance booking priority and a price lock for the agreed scope. Embedded Content Department commitments are scoped individually.
Each level has a defined base production allowance. Once-off work covers one project; a partnership renews that allowance each month and adds campaign support, a scoped graphic design allowance, monthly review and calendar management. We agree the production dates, film and clip lengths, photography quantities and revisions in your proposal.
Your production time can cover campaign films, ads, interviews, testimonials or podcasts. For example, a production day could cover short interviews with several people, four scripted concepts, or a podcast followed by other filming. The clip counts are a guide for simpler edits; more involved videos may mean fewer finished pieces. We agree the format, quantities and editing scope before filming. Work beyond that agreed scope is quoted separately.
Priorities change. We review them against the production calendar and the capacity already reserved for your team.
Where the new requirement fits within that capacity, we adjust the plan. Where it needs significantly more capacity, specialist resources or a major scope change, we agree that with you before proceeding.
Depending on the capacity recommended for your team, the partnership can include:
Your proposal confirms the included services for your level. Graphic design, light animation and specialist formats are included only where specified within the agreed allowance.
Specialist and third-party costs are quoted separately when required. These can include talent, presenters, voice-over artists, studios, paid locations, styling, props, specialist equipment, complex animation or visual effects, licensing and media spend.
Your team can supply these directly or we can source and manage them through an approved additional production budget.
We agree on delivery dates as part of your production plan instead of using one turnaround time for every type of work. Your calendar shows the planning, production, approval and final delivery dates for each requirement.
If we miss an agreed final delivery deadline for reasons within our control, the delayed work becomes a production priority, we complete it at no additional cost, and 10% of that month’s production fee is automatically credited to your next invoice.
