Free · Online Brief Builder

You know you need a video. Briefing it is the hard part.

The brief builder walks you through the same questions we'd ask on a kick-off call: what it's for, who it's for, and the one thing it has to land. Answer what you can; we can work from as little as a list of key points.

  • Saves as you type, so you can stop halfway and come back whenever
  • Twenty-five questions, and only five that really matter
  • Ends with a document any production company could work from
  • Free, no card, and no password to remember

Easirent Car Hire

Incredible Value for Money. We found this company through Twitter and contacted them for some advice which they were more than happy to give. The team have been helpful, professional and honest throughout and once we received our videos we were so happy with the quality. There was a slight worry the quality wouldn't be as good as expected due to the price being so low but we have been blown away both times with the effort put in and the ease to amend our products. Can't thank them enough, well done Fifty Squid. You're a model business! With Thanks, Easirent Car Hire
