Frequently asked questions.

What kind of videos do you produce?

We create short- and long-form content across tourism, commercial, corporate, and documentary genres. This includes brand stories, artist portraits, tourism campaigns, product launches, music videos, corporate interviews, brand awareness campaigns, and conservation-focused content.

How much does a typical project cost?

Most of our standard projects start at $2,500. However, pricing varies based on timeline, complexity, and deliverables. Once we understand your needs, we’ll provide a tailored estimate. Visit our services page for more details.

How long does it take to complete a project?

Timelines vary. A short video may take 2–3 weeks from planning to delivery, while larger campaigns often require more tine. You'll receive a clear production timeline during pre-production.

Do you offer drone footage?

Yes. We work with certified and insured drone pilots for operations in Canada. If your project includes aerial filming, we manage the permit process and ensure all regulations are followed.

Do you offer services in French and English?

Yes. We produce content in both of Canada’s official languages — French and English — including interviews, scripts, subtitles, and voiceovers.

Do you work with a team or independently?

Robin Ferand Studio is an independent production company. Most projects are led by Robin, with trusted collaborators brought in as needed based on scale and creative scope.

Do you have a physical studio?

No. We typically work on location — indoors, outdoors, or in your space. Studio rentals are available upon request, usually in Vancouver or nearby centres.

Can we hire you just for filming or editing?

Absolutely. We offer standalone services including camera operator with gear (Canon R5C or BMPCC6K Pro), and editing services for projects shot by your team or externally.

Do you travel for shoots?

Yes. We're based in Nanaimo, BC, and regularly work throughout Vancouver Island, the Lower Mainland, and beyond. We’re also available in France, with home bases in Haute-Savoie (74) and Var (83).

Do you also offer photography?

Yes. We provide commercial, lifestyle, product, tourism, and event photography. Photo services can be booked separately or bundled with video production.

What do you need from the client before we start?

Every project starts with a conversation. We may ask for branding materials, visual references, and your key goals. For more complex projects, we’ll assist with scripting, storyboards, or shot lists.
