dockyard. corporate and image films

A corporate film shows what a company does and who does the work. We produce these films in Vienna and across Austria: for the website, for recruiting, for trade fairs and events, and in short versions for social media.

Finding the story on location

We find the story where the work happens and in conversation with the people who do it. That becomes a concept you sign off before we shoot. Every production has three phases, pre-production, shoot and post-production, and you approve each step.

Buildings, brands, products

For Quest Investment Partners we made a film about C82 in Berlin, a former publishing and press house. In the film the building comes to life and light becomes a way of communicating. For Wittmann we filmed the Andes sofa in the studio with precise light and a reduced look, so craft and design stay in front.

For institutions

For the AMS we shot a series of online spots that follow people working out what they really want to do. For the BFI we made a series about further education.

One version for each use

From one shoot we cut the versions you need: a longer film for the website and presentations, short versions for social media and recruiting, and vertical formats. We decide on the versions before the shoot.

Animation where the camera cannot go

What the camera cannot show, our animation team adds. For the Siemens initiative one4all we combined live action with 3D animation to show what climate-neutral mobility could look like. More under 3D animation and motion design.

Post-production

Editing, colour grading, sound design and music, in-house or with long-standing partners and coordinated by our post-production supervisor. You have one contact from the first conversation to the final file.

Frequently asked questions

What does a corporate film cost?

That depends on the concept, the number of shoot days and locations, crew, interviews or cast, animation and post-production, and on the usage rights you need. Because we produce from Austria, our rates are below those in London, Paris or Berlin. After your brief you get a detailed estimate that shows where the budget goes.

How does a production run, and how many feedback rounds are included?

Every production has three phases: pre-production (concept, script, casting, locations, schedule), the shoot or animation, and post-production (editing, grading, sound, delivery). You approve each step. Unless agreed otherwise, two revision rounds per post-production step are included, as set out in our terms and conditions.

Where is dockyard based, and do you shoot outside Austria?

Our office is at Hasnerstraße 123 in 1160 Vienna, and ICS Media GmbH has a second office in Gmunden, Upper Austria. For shoots in Romania we work with our partner team in Bucharest. Through a network of long-standing partners we also produce in other European countries and take care of scouting, crew and logistics on location.

Who holds the usage rights to the finished film?

The usage rights you acquire are defined in the offer by type of use, media, territory and duration, for example online only in Austria, Germany and Switzerland, or TV and cinema internationally. Buy-outs and extensions can be agreed at any time. The details are in section 9 of our terms and conditions.

How do we start a project with you?

Send us a short brief via the contact form or to office@dockyard.at: what the film should achieve, target audience, channels and formats, timing and, if you already have one, a budget frame. We come back with questions or a first concept and a cost estimate that shows shoot days, crew, locations and post-production.
