“I just wanted to thank you for the great content you have produced for the Cheeky Raspberry.

The photos and stop motion look amazing, and we are extremely impressed with the quality. Can’t wait to see it go live on the feed.“

CAN YOU IMAGINE THE IMPACT ALGORITHM-BUSTING VIDEOS WILL HAVE FOR YOUR BUSINESS?


Video sells. TikTok, IG Reels, and Pinterest all prove it. 

And what better way could there be to sky-rocket your brand visibility?

  • For a new product launch

  • A new digital catalogue

  • Exciting social media content

  • Wanting to boost your place in the market

But creating scroll-stopping stop-motion videos takes a lot of skill, creativity and time. 

This is why I help you clarify your creative vision and bring it to life with stop-motion videos.

IT'S YOUR TIME FOR SCROLL-STOPPING, MIND-BLOWING PRODUCT VIDEOS

  • Personalised creative brief so I can showcase your brand perfectly

  • Creative research to discover new, scroll-stopping creative ways to video your products

  • Detailed stop motion video plan so you know exactly what you’re getting before shooting starts

  • Tailored styling and videos with innovative props and direction 

Let’s get your project started

"We found Sophie fabulous to work with. Sophie did both photography and stop-motion videos, and we've been impressed with the quality and timeliness of her work. 

We found the way that Sophie has the creative brief set out to elicit the information she needs to get started on a project to be really user friendly, and the way her creative board is shared with us so that we can see and approve the concepts for the project is an excellent way to make sure that we are all on the same page, and that we are getting exactly what we need.

We recommend Sophie to any business looking for photos and stop motions."

Emily ~ Nude Kiwi

HI, I'M SOPHIE. I LOVE CREATING MAGIC IN MOTION


Getting product sales is so much harder than it used to be.

You see everyone else taking advantage of videos, but you don’t know how to do it yourself.

You don’t have the equipment, or you just don't know how to make your vision work.

That’s why I help Kiwi brands bring their products to life in innovative ways.

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER TO GET SCROLL-STOPPING PRODUCT VIDEOS

Spinning | Rolling | Jumping to life


Working with me is fun and simple. It starts with filling out my client form.

Send me your brand guidelines (if you’ve got them), and tell me all about your business, your style and what you love.

I’ve tailored the brief over many years of product photography and stop motion videos to help me to understand what you’re looking for and get the creative ideas flowing.

With all this background, I’ll come up with a video plan for discussion, so you make sure you’re getting the photographs you need.

From there, you send me your products, I work my magic, and before you know it, you’re doing your happy dance with your new kick-ass, mind-blowing, sales-boosting videos.

DON'T YOU WISH YOUR PRODUCTS COULD COME TO LIFE?

CAN I BE AT THE SHOOT AND OTHER QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE

Can you supply different formats for stop motion to suit different platforms?

Yes, I can supply stop motions in different formats to suit your requirements. Different formats may be 9:16 (Instagram stories), 4:5 (Instagram feed), 16:9 web banner etc. There will be a $25.00 (+ GST) fee per format. 

Can I be at the photo shoot with you?

I generally work on shoots over a few days, particularly the larger shoots. Setting up each shot and ensuring I am happy with it can be time-consuming and working from my home studio where there is limited space. Therefore I don't have clients on the shoot with me.

Do my products get returned?

If you would like your products to be returned, please include a return post bag or alternatively, I can book the courier and add the costs to the final invoice. Otherwise, the stock will be stored for 3 months if not collected or returned by this time, it may be gifted or donated.

How do I get started?

Firstly you will fill out a creative brief so we can get a good understanding of your brand and what's required for the shoot. It’s important to put as much detail in your brief as possible to ensure we’re all on the same page!

Will I get a plan before the shoot so I have an idea of what the images will look like?

Absolutely! I use a platform called Milanote to draw up your pre-production, where you can collaborate with me on the details of the stop motion. I will outline each shot and how it's going to look, along with a visual reference.

You will have final approval of the plan before the shoot goes ahead.

What are your payment terms?

A 50% deposit and a signed contract are required to lock in your shoot. Final payment is to be made prior to your content being released.

What is your turnaround time?

Turnaround time is 8 - 10 working days from the date of the stop motion video shoot. (Please note that in busy times the turnaround time may be longer, please enquire about time frames if you’re on a deadline). 

Can you do the work urgently?

If urgent work is required with a turnaround of 5 working days or less, a 20% rush fee will be added to the final invoice.

Do you offer refunds?

Due to the nature of the work, no refunds will be issued. This is why your creative brief is SO important and why we work together on the shoot plan.

If there are any issues with your images please make contact within 3 working days. You may request a reshoot given a valid explanation within this timeframe.
