Ninety seconds of proof beats a page of adjectives.
Every agency site in America says “high-quality visuals.” Here’s ours instead — shot in East Texas, for East Texas businesses.
Three crafts, one building, one invoice.
Video, photography, and design under the same roof as the media buyers — which is why the spot and the schedule it runs on are built to fit each other.
Video
Thirty seconds is the hard one.
Anyone can shoot two minutes of pretty footage. Cutting your business down to thirty seconds that still says something — and still works with the sound off — takes a room that has done it a few thousand times.
- TV spots, OTT cuts, brand films, and vertical social
- Script, shoot, edit, colour, and sound in-house
- Every aspect ratio a platform will ask for, cut properly

Photography
Your building on its best day.
The stock photo of a smiling stranger in an office fools nobody, and it certainly doesn’t sell what you actually make. We come to you, wait for the light, and shoot the real thing — your people, your shelves, your work.
- Product, team, location, and event photography
- Shot on location — your place, not a rented set
- Retouched, catalogued, and handed over in full resolution

Graphic Design
The ad, the board, the menu, and the truck.
Design is the part clients notice last and customers notice first. A logo is a start; what you actually need is the same brand holding together across a billboard on the Loop, a newspaper ad, and a decal on a pickup.
- Brand identity, print ads, outdoor, packaging, and signage
- Built to hold up at billboard size and at thumbnail size
- Files handed over in the formats a printer actually wants

Most agencies hire a crew. We are the crew.
When production sits in the same building as the media desk, the spot gets made for the schedule it’s running on — and a re-cut takes an afternoon, not a purchase order.
| Rénard in-house | Agency that outsources | A freelance crew | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Knows the campaign the film is for | Yes | Briefed on it | No |
| A new cut in days, not weeks | Yes | No | If they’re free |
| No third-party markup on the shoot | Yes | No | Yes |
| Same team again next quarter | Yes | Whoever’s booked | If they’re still around |
| You keep the raw footage | Yes | Ask first | Negotiate |
| Cheapest for a single one-off shoot | No | No | Yes |
Need one video and nothing else? Hire a good freelancer. We’re built for brands that need the next one too.
Script & Story
Written by people who know what the campaign has to do, not handed a brief and left guessing.
Crew & Kit
Cameras, lights, audio, and the people who know how to use them — all on the payroll.
Edit & Finish
Colour, sound, captions, and every cut-down the platforms want — done before you ask.
Trafficking
We get it to the station, the platform, and the printer in the format each one demands.
Forty-nine years of pointing cameras at East Texas.
The gear changed about six times. What makes thirty seconds worth watching hasn’t changed once.

The questions we get on the first call.
Straight answers, including the ones that aren’t in our favour.
What does a video actually cost?
A straightforward 30-second spot shot in a day usually lands between $3,500 and $8,000; brand films with multiple locations go up from there. The honest variable isn’t the camera — it’s how many days we’re shooting and how many people have to approve it.
Do we need a script before we call you?
No. Bring the problem, not the solution — “we need people to know we do commercial roofing now” is a better starting point than a script somebody’s cousin wrote. We’ll write it, board it, and you approve before anyone picks up a camera.
How long from first call to something we can run?
Two to four weeks for a typical spot: a week to script and schedule, a day or two shooting, then a week or so to cut and revise. We can move faster when a deadline demands it, but rushing usually shows up on screen.
Do we own the footage?
Yes — the finished cuts, the stills, and the raw footage. We archive it so a re-cut next year doesn’t mean a re-shoot, but it’s yours. If we part ways, it goes with you. Ask any production company that question and watch how long the answer takes.
Can you shoot at our location?
We’d prefer it. Your building, your crew, your actual work is what makes a spot believable — the rented studio look is exactly what viewers have learned to tune out. We’ll work around your open hours so nobody loses a day’s trade.
Can we hire you for production only?
Yes. Plenty of clients use us for the shoot while another agency runs their media, and that’s fine — we’ll hand over finished files in whatever format they ask for. It works better when both sit together, but we won’t hold a project hostage over it.
Will you work with our existing brand guidelines?
Of course. If you’ve got a brand book, we follow it. If you’ve got a logo and a vague memory of the fonts, we’ll rebuild the guidelines as we go and hand them back to you at the end, which is more common than you’d think.
What if we don’t like the first cut?
Then we cut it again — two rounds of revisions are in every quote as standard. Because the editor sits down the hall rather than at a vendor, a change you flag on Tuesday morning is usually back to you by Wednesday.
Still have a question?Ask us on the call — it’s free, and there’s no pitch waiting at the end.
