Their services also include drone videography, multi-camera event coverage, and custom video editing, making them a versatile option for individuals and small businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Bernardson compare to Noise Soul Cinema?

Noise Soul Cinema focuses primarily on personal and event-based videography, often capturing weddings, celebrations, and live events with a cinematic style. Their work is typically centered around documenting real moments and creating emotional, story-driven videos for individuals or event-focused clients. These productions are designed to preserve experiences and highlight key moments through creative videography.

Bernardson offers a full-service commercial production approach that combines cinematic video production with professional commercial photography, all designed for marketing campaigns and brand storytelling. While cinematic techniques are still an important part of the work, Bernardson’s focus is on helping businesses create content that supports advertising, digital marketing, and long-term brand growth.

Does Bernardson offer corporate video production?

Yes. Bernardson produces a wide range of corporate video content designed to support marketing initiatives, recruitment efforts, and internal communication. These productions may include brand films that communicate a company’s identity and mission, recruitment videos that help attract talent, promotional videos that highlight products or services, and internal communications content used for training or company updates.

Corporate video projects often combine interviews, cinematic visuals, workplace footage, and narrative storytelling techniques to create engaging and professional content. Businesses use these videos to strengthen their brand, communicate key messages, and connect with audiences effectively.

What makes Bernardson's multi-platform approach different?

Traditional studios shoot content in one format and expect you to adapt it for different platforms. This leads to cropped Instagram posts, awkward TikTok videos, and underperforming content.

We plan multi-platform optimization from the start. We shoot vertical (9:16 for Instagram Stories/TikTok), square (1:1 for Instagram feed), and widescreen (16:9 for YouTube/LinkedIn) simultaneously during production. Each platform gets content designed specifically for its format and audience behavior, typically increasing engagement rates 40-60% compared to repurposed content.
