Edinburgh, Scotland Video Production
Cinematic commercials, brand films, corporate interviews, and event coverage across Edinburgh—Old Town & Royal Mile, New Town, Leith, and Holyrood Park.
About Edinburgh, Scotland
Edinburgh mixes medieval closes and Georgian crescents with dramatic volcanic landscapes—ideal for premium interviews, product films, and doc-style storytelling. We work across Old Town, New Town, Leith, and city parks with a lean, senior crew.
Street filming in the city region typically does not require a permit when it doesn’t obstruct or cause nuisance, and a formal Notice of No Objection can be arranged. Parks/greenspaces need council permission (usually ≥48 hours’ notice). Landmark sites like Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Park/Arthur’s Seat are managed by Historic Environment Scotland and require separate approvals. We handle permits, locations, logistics, and provide a client remote video village for live review.

Edinburgh Video Production — FAQ
Do you handle permits in Edinburgh?
Yes. We coordinate with Film Edinburgh for street guidance/No-Objection notices, the City of Edinburgh Council for parks & greenspaces, and Historic Environment Scotland for sites such as Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Park.
Can we use drones?
UK flights must follow CAA rules (Flyer ID/Operator ID). HES sites require specific drone permission, and take-off/landing in council spaces needs prior approval.
What size is the crew?
Typical is 2–4 core crew (Director/DP, AC/GAFFER, Sound). We scale up as needed.
Pricing?
Every brief is unique. As reference, interview capture (2-camera, crew, lighting & audio) commonly ranges from £2,800–£6,000 for production day only. Full campaigns are scoped after a short call.
