CHARITY VIDEO PRODUCTION SOUTH WALES
Charity Films That Show the Work Behind the Cause
Professional video production for charities, CICs, trusts and community organisations across Cardiff, Newport, Swansea, Bridgend and South Wales.
We film real people, projects and outcomes for fundraising, awareness, campaigns, events, reports and stakeholder communications.
CHARITY VIDEO EXAMPLE
Race The Sun
A charity event film built around the people, challenge and atmosphere of the day.
Show the work in action
For Race The Sun, the story was already happening in front of the camera: participants taking on the challenge, supporting one another and raising money for the cause.
That kind of film gives supporters, funders and future participants something concrete to see rather than relying entirely on statistics or written descriptions.
PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTION, COMMERCIAL PRICING
Charity status does not change the cost of the production
South Wales Video is a commercial video production business. Charity and CIC projects are quoted on the same basis as any other commission: filming time, crew, equipment, travel, editing, graphics and the final deliverables required.
If a project has a fixed budget, we can discuss what is realistic within it. That may mean a shorter filming day, fewer locations, a simpler edit or fewer finished versions. We adjust the scope of the production rather than applying a separate charity rate.
This keeps the quotation clear from the start and makes it easier for organisations to include realistic video costs within grant applications, campaign budgets and project funding.

REAL STORIES NEED CAREFUL HANDLING
Plan consent, privacy and safeguarding before filming
Charity films can involve personal experiences, health issues, vulnerable people or information that should not be made public without clear agreement.
Before filming, the organisation should identify any safeguarding, consent or confidentiality requirements and make sure contributors understand how the footage will be used.
On the production side, we keep interviews straightforward and give contributors enough space to answer naturally. Not every story needs dramatic music or an emotional sales pitch; often the strongest material is simply somebody explaining what happened and why the service mattered.
CHARITY VIDEO FAQ
Budget, filming and practical questions
Do you offer discounted charity rates?
No. Charity and CIC productions are priced on the same commercial basis as our other video work. If the available budget is limited, we can reduce the scope of the production rather than reduce the production rate.
Can you quote for a funding application?
Yes. If you know the likely filming requirements and deliverables, we can provide a quotation that can be included within a grant or project budget.
Can you film beneficiaries or sensitive personal stories?
Yes, where the commissioning organisation has the appropriate consent and safeguarding arrangements in place. We can plan a discreet interview and filming approach around the contributors involved.
Can you film charity events?
Yes. We film fundraising events, challenges, conferences, launches and community activity. See our event filming service for wider event coverage.
Can you provide shorter social versions?
Yes. Shorter edits can be planned alongside the main film when the required platforms and running times are agreed before production.
How much does charity video production cost?
Cost depends on the same factors as any other video production: filming time, crew, travel, editing, graphics and deliverables. See our video production pricing or send the brief for a project quotation.
