Reds10: Corporate Films and Architectural Photography for a pioneer in Industrialised Construction
The Commercial Challenge
Reds10 is a national leader in modular construction. To coincide with the launch of their highly anticipated new website, they required a suite of premium visual assets that accurately reflected their massive operational scale and their profound community impact. The commercial objective was twofold. First, they needed a flagship brand film to showcase their vast manufacturing capabilities. Second, they required a comprehensive project documentary and architectural photography for Wembley Manor, a landmark special educational needs school built for the London Borough of Brent.
Our Strategic Approach
We engineered a dual focus visual strategy and took complete ownership of the creative direction. Working collaboratively with their marketing department, we wrote the initial scripts and refined the narrative to perfectly balance industrial magnitude with human emotion. For the corporate brand film, we deployed dynamic cinematography and expert aerial drone capture to document their incredible fifty acre manufacturing site in Driffield. To capture the Wembley Manor project, we pivoted to a sensitive documentary approach. We conducted high level interviews with council leaders, headteachers and students to articulate the profound community benefits of delivering a highly sustainable BREEAM Outstanding educational facility.
The Deliverables
• Flagship corporate brand film showcasing their massive three hundred thousand square foot manufacturing facility
• Premium project documentary detailing the fourteen month Wembley Manor school build
• Full creative direction including professional scriptwriting and narrative development
• Seamless integration of aerial drone cinematography and dynamic factory floor capture
• Professional on set interviewing and high resolution architectural photography
The Production Reality
Executing a multi location campaign of this magnitude requires rigorous logistical precision and extreme versatility. Our production unit transitioned seamlessly from navigating heavy machinery on an active industrial factory floor to operating with profound sensitivity within a live special educational needs environment. We handled the complex interviewing process collaboratively, working closely with the client to ensure every council member and young student felt entirely comfortable on camera, resulting in perfectly authentic corporate storytelling.
The Commercial Outcome
The resulting visual assets now serve as the foundational content for the newly launched Reds10 digital platform. The films actively support their future commercial bidding processes by proving their ability to deliver massive infrastructure at scale while maintaining exceptional quality and sustainability standards. The premium photography and cinematic documentaries successfully position Reds10 not just as a construction company, but as a visionary force changing the future of the industry.
Client Verdict
"Love working with Novus Nine! Super relaxed crew, always accommodating and professional."

Biotiful: Authentic Lifestyle Photography for a Market Leading FMCG Brand
The Commercial Challenge

The commercial objective was to pivot away from sterile clinical aesthetics and reposition the product within authentic daily routines. They needed a trusted visual partner to capture their standard, protein and French product lines while appealing to a broad and highly diverse target demographic.
Our Strategic Approach
We took total ownership of the commercial production. To ensure every frame perfectly aligned with their brand vision, we procured a high end residential location that provided a warm and highly aspirational backdrop.

By integrating a specialist food stylist and sourcing fresh ingredients like mangoes, kale and cherries, we engineered an aesthetic that feels exceptionally premium yet entirely accessible.
The Deliverables

• Bespoke imagery tailored specifically for the French product line
• End to end production management including location procurement and talent casting
• Expert art direction and professional food styling
The Production Reality
Executing a multi model lifestyle shoot involving a large volume of FMCG products requires rigorous coordination. Our production unit managed a full crew of photographers, producers and stylists to capture various consumer consumption moments. From morning smoothies to post workout recovery, we navigated multiple complex setups with extreme precision. The collaborative and positive energy on set ensured the commercial models genuinely enjoyed the environment, resulting in highly authentic lifestyle assets.
The Commercial Outcome
The final visual assets are now actively driving engagement across the Biotiful digital platforms. The brand possesses a fresh and highly versatile content library that successfully bridges the gap between functional gut health and aspirational everyday living.

Redefine Meat: Cinematic Visual Campaign for a National FMCG Supermarket Launch
The Commercial Challenge
Redefine Meat required a high impact visual campaign to support the highly anticipated launch of seven innovative plant based products across Morrisons superstores nationwide. The commercial objective was to produce a suite of cinematic video assets that demonstrated product versatility and premium culinary appeal. They briefed our team to step away from traditional FMCG advertising and instead deliver a rich, atmospheric aesthetic reminiscent of a high end food documentary, engineered to capture attention across both consumer and trade platforms.
Our Strategic Approach
We developed a highly sensory production strategy focused entirely on the culinary experience. Moving beyond standard ingredient shots, we engineered a visual language driven by rich sound design, macro texture and atmospheric lighting. Operating within a curated kitchen environment, we captured the sizzle, steam and seasoning through dynamic close up sequences. The resulting aesthetic successfully married chef level culinary energy with an accessible, real world setting, perfectly aligning with their disruptive brand identity.
The Deliverables
• Cinematic hero video encompassing the entire new product range
• Seven dedicated social first video assets tailored for individual product marketing
• Comprehensive creative direction, professional food styling and scripting
• High volume commercial asset generation executed within a single highly efficient shoot day
The Production Reality
Delivering a high volume campaign featuring seven distinct culinary setups requires rigorous pre production and absolute on set precision. By meticulously planning the shot list and styling requirements in advance, we created a highly agile and collaborative set environment. This rigorous preparation allowed our production unit to move seamlessly between complex culinary setups and rapid turnarounds. We ensured every required cinematic frame was captured without ever compromising the relaxed and positive atmosphere on the day.
The Commercial Outcome
The resulting commercial assets are actively driving the national retail rollout across their social, digital and trade channels. By demonstrating exactly how the product performs in a modern culinary setting, the campaign successfully educates consumers while delivering exceptional visual impact. The project exceeded initial expectations by providing the internal marketing team with a highly versatile content library generated entirely from a single consolidated production day.
Client Verdict
"Working with Novus Nine was a pleasure from start to finish. Sam and Dom took the time to understand our goals and brought creativity, flexibility and speed throughout the project. They translated our ideas into visually stunning content that exceeded expectations. We walked away with multiple edits, ready to use across platforms, and had a great day shooting together. Agile, professional and a joy to work with! We will definitely collaborate again."

Lannock Farm: Complete Digital Transformation and Strategy for a Regenerative Agriculture Brand
The Commercial Challenge
Lannock Farm required a total overhaul of their digital infrastructure. Their existing website lacked a clear user journey, possessed zero ecommerce capability and failed to communicate their premium regenerative farming ethos. The commercial objective was to engineer a fully integrated digital flagship capable of driving direct to consumer sales, managing complex event bookings and showcasing their exceptional produce to a high value retail audience.
Our Strategic Approach
We deployed a user experience led digital strategy. Before capturing a single frame of content, we mapped a comprehensive customer journey to ensure the new platform would actively convert visitors into buyers. We then executed a consolidated production pipeline, capturing premium aerial cinematography, lifestyle video and ecommerce product photography all within a single highly efficient shoot day. This ensured the visual assets perfectly matched the bespoke web design.
The Deliverables
• Bespoke web development with fully integrated ecommerce capabilities
• Advanced ticketing architecture for farm workshops and premium events
• High resolution product photography for direct to consumer retail
• Cinematic aerial drone footage and authentic lifestyle brand video
• Rapid six week project turnaround from initial brief to live launch
The Production Reality
Combining digital development with commercial production requires flawless project management. By handling the entire process in house, we eliminated the friction of using multiple external agencies. Our team navigated the active farm environment to capture dynamic lifestyle content while simultaneously building the complex backend retail infrastructure. The client trusted our strategic vision entirely, resulting in an exceptionally smooth and rapid digital deployment.
The Commercial Outcome
The new digital platform immediately transformed their retail capabilities. Lannock Farm can now seamlessly sell premium produce and event tickets directly to their customers. The user engagement metrics speak volumes regarding the success of the new user interface. Within the first five days of launch, the site recorded hundreds of highly engaged sessions with an astonishing average session duration of over four minutes and twenty seconds. Visitors are not just browsing. They are staying, engaging and buying.

Gu Desserts: Sensory Content and Vertical Visual Strategy for a Leading FMCG Brand
The Commercial Challenge
Gü Desserts identified a critical gap in their digital marketing strategy. While they possessed strong static photography and lo fi digital assets, they lacked the premium video content required to command attention across modern vertical platforms like TikTok and Instagram. The commercial objective was to launch their seasonal Hot Range under the campaign theme Embrace the Cosy. They needed a production partner to elevate their digital presence, blending high end studio polish with highly engaging, relatable visual storytelling.
Our Strategic Approach
We engineered a highly sensory visual strategy. Collaborating closely with the Gü marketing team, we translated their brief into a suite of indulgent commercial video assets. We procured a bespoke kitchen studio location to serve as the perfect tactile backdrop. Every frame was meticulously crafted to highlight the luxurious texture of the product, capturing rising steam and perfect spoon pulls. We focused on natural, authentic storytelling perfectly optimised for modern vertical formats.
The Deliverables
• Comprehensive suite of vertical video assets for Instagram and TikTok
• Premium hero content for the Chocolate Melting Middle campaign
• End to end shoot production including location procurement and set design
• Seamless remote client collaboration and real time digital direction
• Agile post production editing and rapid asset delivery
The Production Reality
Executing a food styling shoot requires immense technical precision. When national transport strikes unexpectedly prevented the client marketing team from attending the studio in person, our production unit instantly pivoted to a remote collaboration model. We established a live digital communication feed and provided real time visual updates throughout the day. This agile workflow ensured the client retained full creative oversight while we managed the complex culinary styling, delivering a flawless shoot without a single delay.
The Commercial Outcome
Gü Desserts received a highly polished library of commercial video assets that perfectly bridge the gap between premium brand identity and native digital energy. The rapid delivery allowed their team to immediately deploy the campaign across their channels. The content successfully elevated their seasonal marketing strategy, providing the exact professional polish required to dominate a highly competitive FMCG sector.
Client Verdict

The commercial objective was absolute authenticity. They needed a trusted production partner capable of taking total logistical ownership of the project, delivering rugged environmental imagery that resonates with dedicated tradespeople while maintaining strict global brand standards.
Our Strategic Approach
We engineered a highly authentic visual strategy. Rather than staging a sterile studio shoot, we procured an active construction site to serve as a dynamic commercial backdrop.

Nice Wine: Elevating FMCG packaging into a high fashion editorial campaign.
The Commercial Challenge
Nice approached Novus Nine to entirely reimagine how canned wine is perceived in the market. They did not want standard, lifestyle FMCG imagery. Their commercial goal was to position their canned wine and new multipacks as a premium, aspirational accessory for the summer season. The brief required us to pivot away from traditional food and beverage aesthetics and execute a bold, fashion forward editorial campaign that would disrupt social feeds and elevate their brand positioning.
Our Strategic Approach
We transformed their initial vision into a comprehensive visual strategy. Stepping away from soft lifestyle lighting, we embraced the stark, high contrast aesthetics of high end fashion lookbooks. We developed a meticulous moodboard, utilising direct flash photography and bold, minimalist styling to elevate the product. Every element was highly curated. From the precise colour palette to the bespoke accessories and model casting, we engineered a set that treated a can of wine with the same reverence as a luxury fashion item.

Full creative direction and set styling
End to end studio production and logistics
Model sourcing and talent coordination
A suite of premium, campaign ready assets optimised for digital and print media

Dom drove the creative energy on set, pushing the boundaries of traditional product photography, while Sam ensured the ambitious shot list was executed flawlessly and on schedule. The environment was dynamic, highly collaborative, and entirely focused on capturing the perfect frame. We even managed to capture additional, unscheduled content formats to maximise the client ROI for the day.
The Commercial Outcome
Nice received a comprehensive suite of striking, disruptive photography that looks entirely different from any competitor on the shelf. The imagery has become a foundational element of their summer visual identity and is currently driving engagement across their digital, social, and retail channels.

Toro UK: Executing a Corporate Social Responsibility Campaign to Capture Viral Market Momentum
The Commercial Challenge
Toro UK required a highly agile production partner to capitalise on a rapidly developing viral moment. Following a hugely popular online feature by entrepreneur Simon Squibb, a local business named Swan Landscapes gained massive public traction. Toro generously donated premium equipment to support their growth and needed to document this corporate social responsibility initiative instantly. The commercial objective was to produce a meaningful documentary that captured the cultural zeitgeist without ever feeling overtly promotional or opportunistic.
Our Strategic Approach
We deployed a rapid response documentary strategy. To maintain absolute authenticity, we deliberately avoided highly staged commercial setups. Instead, we focused on genuine human interaction, capturing intimate interviews and cinematic environmental visuals that highlighted the philanthropic connection between a global enterprise and a local community business. The visual language was engineered to feel deeply empathetic, grounded and immediately shareable across modern digital platforms.
The Deliverables
• Premium short form documentary engineered for social vitality
• High resolution lifestyle and brand photography
• Full interview production and narrative editing
• Rapid same day asset delivery to leverage peak online momentum
The Production Reality
Reactive marketing requires an established foundation of absolute trust. Because we operate as an ongoing retained partner for Toro UK, we were able to mobilise our production unit immediately. Operating seamlessly within their Hertfordshire headquarters, our crew moved with extreme efficiency to capture the narrative while the original story was still peaking in the public eye. This level of agility and speed is only possible through deep creative collaboration and rigorous logistical planning.
The Commercial Outcome
The campaign successfully amplified their corporate social responsibility initiative across digital platforms. The documentary assets generated exceptional organic reach, securing thousands of highly engaged views across TikTok and Instagram within hours of delivery. By acting as a rapid visual partner, we helped Toro UK convert a fleeting viral moment into a lasting testament to their generous corporate values and tangible community impact.

The Oardinary Crew: Sports Documentary and Digital Platform to Secure Global Sponsors
The Commercial Challenge
The Oardinary Crew approached Novus Nine with an unprecedented endurance mission. They are rowing three thousand miles across the Atlantic Ocean. To fund this monumental world record attempt and raise vital funds for their chosen charities, they needed to instantly elevate their public profile. The commercial objective was to transform a grassroots charity challenge into a highly investable sports brand capable of attracting major corporate sponsors and securing global media attention.
Our Strategic Approach
We approached this brief as a premium sports marketing campaign. Recognising that corporate sponsors invest in professional aesthetics, we engineered a bold and unified visual identity that rivals established athletic brands.

The Deliverables
• Bespoke web design and comprehensive digital platform integration

• Studio quality lifestyle photography and athletic headshots
• Ongoing sports documentary production and intensive training films

Our ability to blend seamless professional production with genuine human connection ensures we capture the true grit and camaraderie that makes their mission so compelling.
The Commercial Outcome
The crew now commands a formidable digital presence. Their premium visual assets are actively driving public engagement and have successfully secured high value corporate sponsorships to fund their ocean crossing.

Aching Arms: Delivering a Sensitive Documentary Campaign to Drive Awareness and Support
The Strategic Challenge
Aching Arms required a compelling visual asset for their OFFLOAD campaign. The initiative provides a safe environment for men who have experienced baby loss to connect, play golf, and speak openly about their grief. The challenge was capturing this incredibly delicate subject matter without disrupting the safe space. The charity needed a powerful film to break the silence around male bereavement, specifically within the construction industry, and to serve as a core marketing asset to drive future participation and secure vital sponsorship.
Our Strategic Approach
We deployed a highly sensitive documentary approach. Balancing cinematic quality with profound respect for the attendees, our crew utilised quiet observation and unobtrusive filming techniques. The strategy was to allow authentic moments of reflection and human connection to unfold naturally without producer interference. By focusing on honest dialogue and a supportive environment, we engineered a narrative that feels profoundly real and uplifting, ensuring the final film acts as a powerful catalyst for mental health awareness.
The Deliverables
• Premium documentary film tailored for the OFFLOAD campaign
• End to end event production and discreet visual capture
• Expert editing of sensitive interviews and authentic interactions
• Emotionally grounded storytelling assets for charity awareness and donor engagement
The Production Reality
Filming deeply personal conversations requires exceptional empathy and technical agility. Our production team integrated seamlessly into the group, building immediate trust with the attendees. We operated with a minimal footprint to preserve the intimacy of the event while still capturing high end cinematic visuals. The profound sense of shared purpose on set resulted in a deeply moving production day, highlighting our unique ability to handle complex and highly emotional briefs with absolute professionalism and care.
The Campaign Outcome
The resulting documentary is now a cornerstone asset for Aching Arms. It actively helps the charity spread vital awareness for the OFFLOAD campaign on a much larger scale. The film serves as a primary digital resource to initiate difficult conversations, encourage broader participation, and secure crucial support for future charitable events. The project successfully translated a sensitive initiative into a highly impactful visual campaign that resonates across the third sector.
Client Verdict
"What can I say! I have never worked with a company who have shown so much passion and commitment to support our project and create something special. Dom gave us so much of his time to understand our cause and he created something absolutely perfect. The campaign video was to support our OFFLOAD campaign supporting dads after baby loss and it will make such a huge impact. You have businesses who want to do a good job and then you have Novus Nine who truly care too. I cannot recommend them enough!"

The Giving Tree: A Digital Platform and Commercial Documentary to Scale Charitable Impact
The Commercial Challenge
The Giving Tree initially approached Novus Nine for a straightforward digital refresh. Following a deep strategic consultation, we identified a critical gap in their wider marketing toolkit. While they did incredible work on the ground, they lacked the premium video assets required to effectively communicate their scale and impact to high value corporate partners and donors. The challenge evolved from a simple website build into a comprehensive visual strategy. We needed to engineer a digital home paired with a compelling brand documentary to actively drive fundraising and community engagement.
Our Strategic Approach
We deployed a purpose driven visual strategy. Rather than scripting the project from a boardroom, our production team spent time on the ground with the local charities they support. Immersing ourselves in their daily operations allowed us to capture the authentic emotion and tangible reality of their work. We set out to produce a suite of films that felt cinematic, entirely honest, and heavily optimised to inspire immediate donor action.
The Deliverables
• Premium brand overview documentary
• Event specific campaign videos covering their Cycle Safari and Cambridge Half Marathon
• Bespoke web design and a fully integrated digital platform
• End to end production and visual strategy
• Comprehensive digital asset delivery for social and fundraising channels
The Production Reality
Executing a charity production requires absolute sensitivity and extreme logistical efficiency. We coordinated a highly agile shoot across three different counties in a single day, capturing the vibrant energy of community fundraising events. A major operational highlight was tracking The Giving Tree team as they crossed the finish line at the Cambridge Half Marathon. Our crew operated discreetly to capture genuine joy and commitment without ever disrupting the natural flow of the fundraising events.
The Commercial Outcome
The Giving Tree was born out of a bold initiative during the pandemic when The Chestnut Group repurposed their venues into community food banks. Today, they have a premium digital platform that finally matches the gravity of that founding mission. The charity now possesses the high end visual assets necessary to secure vital corporate partnerships, promote major fundraising events, and confidently scale their charitable operations across the region.
Client Verdict
"I have really enjoyed working with Novus Nine, they were incredibly professional, came with lots of new, creative ideas and I loved the finished result! I would recommend to anyone looking to tell their brand story through engaging content."
