Fifteen seconds is plenty. If you use them properly.

TV & CINEMA COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION

Television, cinema and streaming commercials made in Hervey Bay, cut for impact and delivered to broadcast spec.

WHERE YOUR AUDIENCE ACTUALLY WATCHES

Three screens. Three audiences. One studio.

Every business has a screen where its customers pay the most attention. For some it's the cinema on a Saturday night. For others it's the living room during the news. And for the ones selling beyond the towns, it's the phone in a mining camp or the tablet on a farmhouse table.

We make one commercial and put it on the right screen. Or all three. Your call.

CINEMA

Dark room. No phone. No skip button.

If you sell to Hervey Bay locals, this is where they pay attention.

Around 4,000 viewers a week. 287 screenings across 7 screens at BIGSCREEN Cinemas Hervey Bay. The highest advertising recall of any medium, and it's not close.

We don't broker cinema. We are the exclusive advertising partner of BIGSCREEN Cinemas Hervey Bay, proudly part of the Hervey Bay RSL. We make the commercial. We put it on the screen. No agency. No Brisbane middleman.

TELEVISION

The whole region sees it. This week.

If you need mass awareness across the Fraser Coast and Wide Bay, nothing else comes close.

Broadcast television still puts your message in front of more people in one hit than any other medium in regional Queensland. We've produced commercials for Seven, WIN and SCA across Bundaberg, Maryborough, Hervey Bay and the surrounding region for years. Direct relationships with the reps and network managers. No agency layer eating your budget.

One broadcast spot and the region knows your name by Friday. That's still true, and we've been doing it longer than most.

STREAMING - DIGITAL TELEVISION

The audience that never sees broadcast. And the one that stopped watching it.

If your customers are remote, under 45, or both, streaming is where they live now.

Two audiences are invisible to traditional TV. The first is geographic: the farmers, the miners, the properties and communities sitting between transmitter footprints west of Bundaberg. Broadcast never gets there.

The second is generational. A whole demographic has moved to on-demand. They watch what they want, when they want, and the ad break during the 6 o'clock news isn't part of their week anymore. They're not unreachable. They're just somewhere else.

Streaming covers both. We place campaigns on 9Now with full pixel tracking: you know exactly who saw your ad and then visited your website. Non-skippable. Completed-view reporting. Living room TVs, tablets, phones, wherever there's a connection, whether that's Hervey Bay CBD or a cattle station past Mundubbera.

THE THREAD

One shoot. One Production. Every screen that matters.

We handle concept, scripting, production, edit, grade, sound, and delivery in-house. The same commercial, built properly for each screen, from the one studio. No relay race. No agency chain. One point of contact from first call to final delivery.

WHAT WE MAKE

Built for the screen it's going on.

A cinema commercial and a social cutdown are not the same film with different edges cropped off. Cinema rewards patience, wide compositions and real sound design. Social has three seconds to earn attention and often plays silent. Broadcast has a clock and a compliance checklist. We build for the primary screen first, then cut the variants properly rather than exporting the same file at four aspect ratios.

15s and 30s Commercials

Cinema, television and streaming, delivered to network and cinema spec. This is the core of what we do: short-form work that earns its screen time through craft, not duration.

Campaigns and Series

Some businesses need one ad. Others need a rolling presence across a season. We build campaign frameworks where the same shoot feeds a full run of promotions, refreshed as the offer changes. Clients like Forty Winks and the Hervey Bay RSL have run this way with us for years.

Social and Vertical Variants

Every commercial we produce can be re-cut for social, vertical, and digital formats. Not a lazy re-export at a different aspect ratio, but a proper re-edit: reframed, retimed, and graded for the platform it's landing on. The same production investment working harder across every channel.

HOW IT COMES TOGETHER

Concept to screen, without the relay race.

We start with the offer and the audience, not with a shot list. What are you actually asking people to do, and what would make them do it?

From there: script and storyboard, a shoot day (or half a day, most 15-second spots don't need more), then edit, grade, sound and delivery. You see a cut, you give notes, we refine. For cinema campaigns we also handle the screening schedule and placement, so there's one invoice and one person to ring.
