Video Production for Kansas City Law Firms

Legal video has a believability problem

Most law firm video looks the same. A partner standing in front of a bookcase with their arms folded, saying the firm is committed to fighting for you. A gavel. Strings underneath. Everybody has seen it, nobody believes it, and it does not make the phone ring.

The firms that get something out of video do one thing differently. They let somebody talk like a human being. That is the whole trick. A partner explaining in plain words what actually happens after somebody calls. A former client describing the week before they found you. It is not fancy and it is not clever. It just sounds true, which is rarer in legal marketing than it should be.

What we make for law firms

Attorney profiles

One attorney, one camera, cut tight. The point is not your credentials — those are already on your bio page and nobody is watching a video to read a resume. The point is whether the person watching can picture sitting across a table from you. Sixty to ninety seconds. It lives on the bio page, on LinkedIn, and in the email your intake team sends after the first call.

Client stories

A former client explaining what they were dealing with and what changed. Nothing in legal marketing outperforms somebody who is not on your payroll saying you were worth it, and almost no firm in Kansas City does it, because it takes a firm willing to make the ask. If you can get us the client, we can make it worth their afternoon.

Practice-area films

One film per practice area, made for somebody in the middle of the worst month of their life who does not know what a deposition is and is embarrassed to ask. Explain the process. Say what it costs. Say how long it takes. Firms are strangely reluctant to do this, which is exactly why it works when you do.

Recruiting and culture

Associates are expensive to hire and more expensive to lose. A short, honest film about what it is actually like to work at your firm does more for recruiting than a careers page ever has.

Adding to the shoot day

Most firm shoots start as a Story Film at $4,500: one location, interview-led, one finished film. When there is more to capture while we are already in the building, these add on at flat prices.

• More voices, $500. Covers a third and fourth interview on the same day, cut into the same film.
• Office photos, $500. Up to six lit, composed and retouched photos of the office for your website.
• Attorney headshots, $1,500. Up to six attorneys, same light and background, shot after the interviews wrap. For the whole firm, a full Headshots day is $3,000 for up to 30 people, or $2,000 for a half day covering up to 12.

A client-story day with four interviews, office photos and six headshots comes to $7,000, fixed before we shoot.

What you get

• A crew of two. The same two, every shoot — no rotating freelancers who have never met your managing partner.
• Shot at your office, or wherever makes sense. We come to you.
• Licensed music, color, sound, captions.
• Cut for where it is going: a long version for the website, verticals for social, and stills pulled from the shoot day.
• Unlimited revisions. We work until you are happy, not until the hours run out.

Firms we have worked with

We have produced work for firms like Edelman & Thompson in Kansas City, Whitley Law Firm in Raleigh and The Flood Law Firm in Connecticut. All three are personal injury practices, which means they had the same problem: a crowded market, competitors buying the same billboards, and no obvious way to sound different from the firm one exit up the highway.

We are happy to walk you through what we made for them and what we would do differently for you. Ask on the call.

How it works

1. A call. Thirty minutes. You tell us what the firm needs and who needs to be on camera. We tell you which package fits and what it costs. No deck.
2. A shot list. We send you exactly what we plan to shoot and who we need for how long, so nobody blocks out a whole day for a forty-minute sit-down.
3. The shoot. Usually one day at your office. We work around court calendars — that is normal for us, not a favor.
4. The cut. First version back within a couple of weeks. You give notes. We revise until it is right.

Where we shoot

We film across the metro every week. Most of our law firm work happens in Leawood, Prairie Village, Overland Park and downtown Kansas City — the Plaza and the Country Club district especially, where most of the metro's legal offices sit.

There is no travel charge inside the metro.
