I’m Adam.
I championed charities long before I founded dandelion video production.
I’ve ran 5 half-marathons and a marathon, raising almost £2000 for Mind, Dementia UK and Macmillan Cancer Support.
I’ve done ice bucket challenges (didn’t we all).
I even won the office bake-off.
Now I use my powers for good to make videos for charities like:
testimonials.
We champion our charity clients, and they champion us too.
The finished video exceeded all of our expectations. The quality is outstanding, and it perfectly reflects our mission and the impact we have within our community.

frequently asked questions.
A charity video is a video that helps to achieve a charitable goal. It can help to increase donations, raise awareness, launch campaigns, recruit volunteers or grow partnerships.
To make an engaging charity video, you can lean on the true lived experiences of your service users and volunteers.
The types of videos on this page can cost as little as £700, though most projects for charities are typically are in the £1,000 to £1,500 bracket.
Filming a charity video takes as long as it takes, but a first proof of a video is usually provided within one week.
The most important thing to remember is that whilst your service users and volunteers have incredible stories, they are still people and need to feel comfortable and safe to share those stories. You have to respect that some people may never want to share their story, or just be unable to.
To increase donations with a fundraising video, you can show the scale of your achievement – which makes it seem more impressive – or show the transformation along your journey, both things that come across better in video than any other medium.
An effective video content strategy for charitable organisations is to try to achieve multiple goals at once. Can you shoot additional content whilst shooting a case study? Go for it. Can footage be repurposed from old projects instead of being shot fresh?. Do it.
We don’t offer discounts or free video as such, but our pricing is aimed to be accessible to small charities.
We have created videos that are about many difficult and sensitive topics, including mental health, homelessness, sexual assault and abuse recovery, and grief.
We provide subtitles on all videos as standard. Anything else will need to be agreed as part of the project scope.
We can help you create both a video script and a brief if necessary.
We’re based in Kidderminster, but work across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, the West Midlands and the rest of the UK.
