D82 Productions are a media production company, creating their own productions and the production of media content for its clients. This includes: Film Production, Promo, Actor Showreels, Actor Headshots and other videography services.

We are based within the South East, UK predominantly in the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire area. A 35 minute train ride out of London Euston. We are happy to travel to location, however this would incur an additional cost.

As a Film Production company we can work within the realm of creating: Film, Short Film, Music Video, Corporate, Event, Promotional Material, Social Media and Commercial.

Our equipment includes a 6K cinema camera, customizable LED panels, soft box lighting, and Sennheiser sound recording software, all of which are standard in major film and television projects. For a more detailed list, please visit our equipment list page under services.

We usually work with a small dedicated team of professionals who have experience in various departments ranging from: Directing, ADs, Production Manager, Composers, Script Supervisor, Boom Operator, Key Grip, Gaffer, Production Runners, Production Assistants, Hair and Make Up. However, we have a further pool of professionals should the need for a further, larger crew be required.

That depends entirely on the production. Lets have a chat about what it is you are looking for and then we can work out the most appropriate price.

Alongside your headshot, your showreel is part of your own personal advertisement as an actor. It is your weapon to market yourself and talent to casting directors, agents and other industry professionals. A showreel is the perfect chance to demonstrate you as an actor and how you look on screen. Whether you are a new actor or veteran of the field it is always good to have a good quality showreel.

It starts with a free consultation. During which we will discuss your casting type, playing age, previous roles, your experience etc. If needed, taking an in depth look at your current material so we could help advise you on what type of scene we feel would work best for you to showcase your strengths. Our goal is to help you get in the room with industry professionals, so let's make it easy for those agents and casting directors that see hundreds of showreels and headshots that when they look at your material, you stand out!

We only shoot up to two scenes per day to ensure the highest quality.

9:00am is the standard call time with the aim to have the first scene in production by 9:30am, unless we agree upon a different time beforehand. If you are more than 60 minutes late for the agreed call time, your filming slot will be considered cancelled, and your deposit will not be refunded.

We are more than happy to write a bespoke scene tailored for you or we can use one you provide. Based upon your initial consultation we will craft a bespoke scene which we believe would suit you. An initial draft will be sent over to you for review, however the script will not be completely rewritten. An original bespoke script is £15.

Yes, however there are some conditions when using your own script. If using your own script they must be copyright-free and sent over to us at least 7 days before filming for approval. Your script must not be longer than two pages and must include all relevant headings, scene directions and location. Scenes must be contained in one location and have only two actors. We reserve the right to refuse to film any script we deem offensive or inappropriate.

The final finished runtime depends entirely on the flow and pace of the scene, it will be carefully edited to follow an effective narrative based around the scene. Showreel scenes will either be monologues or duologues at two pages in length.

No, unfortunately we do not provide actors. Best thing we can recommend is asking actors you may know, a friend who may need a scene too and could help you split the cost or even post a casting call online. (Mandy is a useful site for this.)

A maximum of 2 actors per scene, this includes you.

For Showreel Scenes we can only shoot in locations that we have free access to use. Usually this includes forests, public parks, outdoor urban/ suburban, countryside areas. If you have access and permission to a location we can use then great! Please consider this when writing your own scenes. We are happy to travel to you, but this will incur an extra cost into your final amount.

No, you are responsible for providing your own costumes and props. (Weapons are not permitted)

No, however you are more than welcome to arrange a professional to come along for the day.

We aim to have your scene/s completed within 14 working days after the filming date.

Yes, we can. The ideal length for a showreel is around the 2:30 minute mark. We will edit your showreel to fit within this time frame, using the cuts and work that showcase you best. We can edit your scenes created by us into a brand new showreel, implement the new scenes into you current showreel or even just an edit of your current showreel. The great news is that wherever you are in the world we can do it, just send us the HD footage and we can get to work! Showreel Edit is priced at £30.

Subject to copyright and licensing laws we would be unable to use anything that would breach those. We may be able to craft something during the edit from a royalty-free piece of audio, however this would be at our discretion.

We are sorry, but no.

After we have confirmation you have received them, we only keep them on file for 30 days. All Raw/ Rushes will also be completely removed after 30 days.

No. Showreel Scenes are not credits. They have been especially designed for the purpose of a showreel and not made by us with the intention that they are anything more. If we are approached by an industry professional who asks more about this production, then we shall explain the nature of it. False credits can damage your CV and professional credibility, leaving you to make a bad impression. Any claims a showreel scene comes from more than that, we will not approve it in any way and ask you or your representatives to remove the falsified credit. Our reasoning behind this is that as professional filmmakers when we create a 'Film' they are our full responsibility, we are putting in all the necessary resources such as: script, locations, wardrobe, casting, final edit and distribution. Whereas during the creation of a showreel, as our client you are the one in charge, so they are ultimately not a true reflection of our film production work.

No.

Once we have wrapped on filming the footage for your scene, it will be taken into post-production. During the editing process you will be sent over a watermarked first draft of the scene, which we believe is the best possible version. This is your chance to review the scene, we will then try to implement any changes to the best we can, however this is at our discretion, you will then receive a second final unwatermarked version of the completed scene for you to share to the world!

You will receive a downloadable HD link. Unless you have paid for a showreel editing service to accompany your scenes, you will only receive them individually.

Your headshot serves as the first point of call that an industry professional such as casting directors, director, agents will see. The Headshot is a crucial asset for any actor, functioning as your introduction and calling card. We will work closely together with you to showcase your distinctive style and personality that helps capture you for various roles.

Once you arrive to the photoshoot location we will use this time to have a little chat about your current casting type, experience and roles you would like to be considered for etc. Our photographer will then look over the outfits you have brought with you to help you decide on different styles and what they feel might work best for you. Then, its time to start taking photos and have fun!

Headshot sessions can take between 1-2 hours depending on which package you have chosen. We like to give enough time to ensure we get enough high quality photos along with a decent variety for you to choose from.

Once the session is complete you will receive a contact sheet with all your images, during which you can choose your favourite images to be retouched and edited. The finished unwatermarked image will then be sent back to you.
