Shoots & Services
What types of video do you produce?
We specialise in music videos, DJ set films, live event coverage and branded content for artists, producers and music-adjacent brands. Through our drone fleet (DJI Mini 5 Pro, Mini 4 Pro, Avata FPV) we also offer aerial cinematography for events and locations.
Where do you shoot?
We're based in East London and shoot nationally. We've worked at venues, studios, outdoor locations and urban environments across Greater London and beyond. We work with you to find the right location for your brief — or you can suggest one.
How long does a shoot take?
Most single-artist music video shoots run 3–6 hours depending on the number of scenes and changes. DJ set films are typically 2–3 hours. Event coverage varies by event length. We'll give you a realistic time estimate at the booking stage.
How quickly will I get my footage?
Standard turnaround is 5–7 working days for edited deliverables. Same-day or 48-hour delivery is available for certain packages at an additional rate — please ask when booking. Raw footage delivery timelines depend on file sizes and transfer method.
Can I see examples of your work?
Yes — visit our Portfolio page to see selected work, and follow us on Instagram and TikTok for the most recent content. You can also check our clients' own channels for live published work.
Pricing & Booking
How much does a music video cost?
We quote every project individually based on location count, shoot duration, crew size, drone work and post-production requirements. Send us your brief and we'll turn around a quote quickly — no obligation.

We offer reduced rates for students, individuals on lower incomes, veterans and serving Armed Forces personnel. Subject to status — mention it when you get in touch.
Do you require a deposit?
Yes. We require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your date. The deposit amount and remaining balance schedule are set out in your service agreement, which we issue before any shoot takes place.
Do you offer any discounts?
Yes. We offer reduced rates for:

Students — with valid student ID or proof of enrolment.
Individuals on lower incomes — subject to status, assessed at the time of enquiry.
Veterans & serving Armed Forces personnel — including Reservists and their immediate families.

All discounts are subject to status and availability. Just mention it when you get in touch — there's no formal process, we'll have an honest conversation.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept bank transfer (preferred), card payments via Stripe, and agree payment plans by arrangement for larger projects. All invoices show our account details and reference number. VAT: Old Street Media Group Ltd is not currently VAT registered.
What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Cancellation and rescheduling terms are set out in your service agreement. In general: rescheduling with more than 5 working days' notice is free of charge. Cancellations within 48 hours of a shoot may forfeit the deposit. We always try to be reasonable — please contact us as early as possible if your plans change.
Marketing & Campaigns
What marketing services do you offer?
We handle brand strategy, social media campaigns, content planning and release rollouts for artists and music brands — from retainer-based social management to full campaign strategy. Every campaign is quoted individually based on your platforms, goals and posting frequency. See the Services page for full details.
Can you handle my social media accounts?
Yes. Our marketing packages include social media account management, content calendars and scheduling. We work across Instagram, TikTok and other platforms relevant to your audience.
Uplens — DJ Studio Software
What is Uplens?
Uplens is our automated DJ footage capture system for DJ studios and music venues. We install a camera station at your studio and provide a QR-code based self-serve system — DJs scan in, their session is captured and uploaded automatically, and they leave with footage. No staff required. See the Uplens page for more.
How much does Uplens cost for a studio?
There are three parts: a one-off setup fee per room, a monthly licence per room, and a revenue share where your studio keeps 75% of every session transaction. Rates are shared directly with studios who enquire, with discounted founding-studio rates available for early partners and flexible terms during pilots. We're currently running a pilot programme in London — email us to find out more.

Do you offer work experience or placements?
Yes. We offer both short work experience placements and longer student placements as part of a university or college qualification. See our Work With Us page for details.
Are you an Armed Forces-friendly employer?
Yes. We are a signed Armed Forces Covenant employer. We provide time off for Reserve training and support CFAV volunteering with flexible scheduling. See our Armed Forces Covenant page for our full commitments.
