One of the things I’m always thinking about on a property shoot is which lens actually makes sense for what we’re trying to show.

For a lot of the wider interior coverage on this one, that means switching to the 14–24mm and shooting at 14mm.

Why?

Because inside a property, especially when space is limited, that extra width allows us to show far more of the room and give the viewer a much better sense of the space in a single shot.

Then there are the simpler things that matter just as much: walking around before filming, tidying anything distracting, turning the lights on and thinking about how we balance the interior against the daylight outside.

Alongside that we’ve got talking content with Celeste, gimbal coverage and drone footage to help build out the finished property film.

The point isn’t using a 14mm because it looks impressive on a kit list. It’s using it because there’s a reason behind the shot we’re trying to create.

We’re going to be highlighting this brand new property.

And before we start flying around with a gimbal or putting the drone in the air, there are a few things to think about first.

We prep the rooms, remove anything that doesn’t help present the space, turn the lights on and work out how we’re going to balance the interior light with what’s happening outside.

From there, it’s about building the coverage properly.

Talking content to explain the property and why someone might want to live there. Wide gimbal shots to actually show the space. Drone footage to give it context. Then bringing all of that together into the final film.

The gear matters, but the decisions behind what we capture matter more.

About an hour and a half of filming. Three cameras. Two sources of audio. One live comedy show.

A quick BTS look at how we captured two 45-minute shows for Mike.

The important bit wasn't just recording the performance.

We built the setup to capture the stage, the scale of the room and the audience reactions — giving us the full shows as well as plenty of material to turn into clips and trailers afterwards.

One production, with a lot more mileage from the footage.

Here’s how we did it.

This might have been the most important upgrade I’ve made all year.

I’ve added the RØDE Wireless GO Gen 3 to the Brunton Media production kit—but this was not simply an excuse to buy a newer microphone.

More of the videos we are producing now involve two-person conversations, including interviews, podcasts and client testimonials.

The new system allows us to:

🎙️ Mic two people quickly
🎧 Monitor both microphones during filming
🔒 Securely lock lavalier microphones into place
💾 Keep independent backup recordings
🎥 Use the system across different camera setups

The result is a simpler production process and less risk when capturing conversations that cannot easily be repeated.

Good equipment should not just look impressive in a kit bag.

It should make the production more reliable and help us deliver better work for clients.

Here is an initial unboxing and an explanation of why this particular upgrade made sense for the business.

A full real-world review will follow after a few productions.

“TikTok is just lip-syncing and dancing until it gets banned.”

It isn’t.

There are communities around almost every industry on the platform, filled with experts talking about what they actually do.

TikTok inherited its reputation from Musical.ly.

The platform moved on.

A lot of businesses didn’t.

We live in an attention economy. Dismissing where the attention is because of an outdated stereotype is poor strategy.

One video reached 650,000 views.

But the real story is not the number.

It is the system behind it—and the pressure created by building that system.

This week’s vlog covers:

Audience clarity.
Packaging.
Content systems.
Stock footage sales.
An international footage licence.
Wildlife filming.
Documentary production.
And the uncomfortable reality that I am still the main bottleneck in the business.

The work is compounding.

Now the challenge is making sure I can keep up with it.

04/08/2026

Why do we post so much content?

Because one post is rarely enough for somebody to remember your business.

Every video creates another touchpoint.

They might watch one of your clips today.
See you at an event next month.
Recognise your name when someone recommends you later.

None of those moments works alone. Together, they build familiarity and trust.

The goal is not to go viral every time.

The goal is to make sure that when someone needs what you do, your business already feels familiar.

That is what consistent, strategic video is really building.

A video I published online has just created an opportunity I couldn’t have planned for.

Some time ago, I filmed and shared a short aerial film of Salisbury Cathedral on YouTube.

There was no campaign behind it. No sales funnel. No guarantee that the “right person” would ever see it.

I simply thought the footage was worth creating and putting into the world.

Recently, a production company in the Netherlands discovered the film and got in touch. They wanted to license the footage for use within an upcoming live production.

That licence has now been agreed and paid, and the original shoot has led to a new international connection and the possibility of further work together.

It’s a useful reminder that the value of creative work does not always appear immediately.

A film can become:

A portfolio piece
A searchable asset
A licensing opportunity
A reason for someone new to trust your work
The start of a completely unexpected relationship

You cannot always predict which piece of work will create the next opportunity.

But it cannot be discovered if it stays on a hard drive.

Everything feeds everything else.

Six months ago, I made a deliberate decision.

I couldn’t fix everything at once, so I chose one priority: the business.

I focused on the fundamentals:

Repositioning
Refining the offer
Improving how I market the work
Sorting the finances
Building a stronger base for the next stage

That work is now largely done.

The business still needs attention, obviously. But it no longer needs all of it.

So the next six months have three priorities:

Rebuild training into my week
Correct the remaining financial mistakes from last year and get back to zero
Keep growing the business from the stronger foundation I’ve built

And I’m approaching my health in the same way I approach the business: with data.

We track enquiries, reach, invoices, revenue and cash flow.

So why wouldn’t I track:

Heart rate
Sleep
Food intake
Weight
Workouts
Recovery
Daily movement

Not to obsess over every number.

To establish a baseline, identify the real bottlenecks and make better decisions.

Today wasn’t an impressive workout.

It was the first workout.

That matters more.

For now, the plan is simple: show up, track honestly and let the data tell me what needs changing.

Different seasons require different priorities.

The mistake isn’t changing focus.

The mistake is trying to optimise everything at once — or trying to improve without measuring anything.

You do not need everyone to understand your business.

You need the right people to understand it clearly.

Trying to market everything you do to everyone usually creates a vague offer that nobody feels was designed for them.

The better questions are:

Who is most likely to value this?

What problem are they actually trying to solve?

Why should they choose this approach over the cheaper option?

That thinking has become increasingly important in how I position Brunton Media.

I am not trying to be a catch-all marketing provider.

The product is strategic video production—planned properly, produced well and built around a clear business moment or long-term content asset.

Clearer positioning may reduce the number of enquiries.

It should improve the quality of them.
