YOUTUBE STRATEGY

We don't just hit record and hope for the best, we build YouTube strategies that drive real results. Whether you're starting from scratch or scaling up, we’ll dive deep into your audience insights, competitors, keywords, formats, budget and channel goals to map out a content plan that actually works. From deciding what types of content to make, when to post, and how to hook your viewers in the first 10 seconds, we help shape your channel into a binge-worthy brand. It's all about getting you a higher subscriber number, more watch time and a bigger digital footprint.

YOUTUBE VIDEO PRODUCTION

From storyboarding to post-production polish, our in-house team brings your YouTube videos to life. We produce engaging, high-retention content tailored to the algorithm, your audience, and your goals. Whether it's educational, entertaining, cinematic, or conversational - we’ve got all the gear, all the crew, and all the know-how. We've worked with global brands and creators, so whether you're filming in London or on-location, you’re in good hands. High-quality visuals, crisp sound, and storytelling editing that sticks - this is YouTube video production made to convert, it's a simple as that!

SHORT FORM 
VIDEO EDITING

Short-form is king, and we know how to make scroll-stopping content that hits hard and fast. From YouTube Shorts to TikToks and Instagram Reels, our video editing team knows how to turn moments into momentum. We craft punchy, visual-first edits with fast cuts, bold captions, and catchy hooks to maximise retention. Whether you're after weekly content or campaign-based batches, we’ll help you build a consistent stream of high-performing vertical video designed to grow your audience and drive traffic to your long-form content.

ANIMATION

Need slick intros, animated explainer videos, or motion graphics that elevate your channel’s professionalism? Our animation service & super skilled in-house  animators helps bring your videos to life visually, whether it’s 2D logo stings, stylish lower thirds, or full-blown animated explainers. Having solid animations will make or break your social-first content, it can bring it alive and make your videos even more stand out from your competitors. At Trendy Grandad we have built an animations department to produce 2d & 3d integrated animations and stand alone animated videos. Basically, if you're looking for sick animators - we're your animation and editing team!

THUMBNAIL DESIGN

Don’t sleep on your thumbnails - they’re just as important as the video itself and our door to your video. At Trendy Grandad, our thumbnail design service is all about making your content stand out and get clicked on your audiences phone. Our in-house editors work hand-in-hand with our production company team to ensure your thumbnail matches the video’s style, tone, and target audience and creates the curiosity gap. Whether it’s bold text, punchy colours, or that perfect freeze-frame moment, we craft thumbnails that stop the phone scroll and boost your click-through rate. We know what works (and what doesn’t) on YouTube, and we use that insight to bring you designs that are as strategic as they are eye-catching.

YOUTUBE CHANNEL 
MANAGEMENT

OUR STORY

So we decided to build our entire business model around helping brands grow on Youtube with specialist Youtube video production services, Youtube video editing, Youtube strategy & distribution.

It doesn't matter what industry you're in, if you're on Youtube or want to build a Youtube channel, we're the team for you.

What other factors do you need to consider when producing Youtube videos?

1. Thumbnail & Youtube channel branding creation

Thumbnail creation is a huge part of the success of your videos, if you don't have a good thumbnail, paired with a strong hook/title then your click through rate on your video isn't going to be high and therefore you're going to lose a lot of viewers and potentially a lot of money. Just as much effort needs to go into the thumbnail of your video as it does the concept and the video production - if not your video won't have any chance of going viral! Looking for thumb-nail creators? Lets chat!

2. Sound Operation

Having a decent quality camera is obviously important, but if your viewers can't hear you then it's all completely pointless. You need to think about how you will record the sound and dialog for your videos to ensure you get the highest possible retention rate! Don't overlook this as your engagement will plummet if not!

3. Concept/Idea

If your idea isn't strong, your video won't succeed. It always starts with the idea/storyboard and then you build on top of that. A good Youtube video isn't necessarily good Youtube video, it's a strong idea. How many times have you watched a video of low quality but just because it's a strong idea it will succeed. Make sure you put just as much time into the Youtube idea as you do the video production, cameras and tech.

4. Your Youtube videographer!

This one sounds pretty simple, but if you're looking to grow on Youtube, you need a videographer that specialises in Youtube and knows the algorithm inside & out. For example it would be a harder for you if they didn't know how to create thumbnails, channel branding or interesting hooks! Your watch time is important, but so is your click through rates! Hiring a specialist in the Youtube videography world is key to your success and key for high engagement! Looking for a New York or London based video team? Lets chat!

5.Understand your audience and business goals

Before you hit record, you need to know exactly who you're making content for. Are your videos trying to build brand awareness, increase sales, or drive traffic to a specific product or maybe you're aiming for monetization? Your approach to Youtube should align with your broader business goals, so every video has a purpose. This is where the experts step in - a strong video production company will help you craft content that speaks to your audience, not just the algorithm.

6.Pricing transparency and production value

Let’s talk budget. Too many brands either over invest in the wrong areas or underfund their most important growth channel - Youtube. Your pricing should reflect your priorities, and your video production company should be transparent about how they’ll bring your vision to life. The best creators know how to deliver cinematic storytelling at scale while sticking to a sensible budget. Great content doesn’t have to cost the earth - it just has to be smartly planned.

7.Strategic video SEO = Growth

Even the most amazing video won’t deliver results if no one sees it. YouTube is the second biggest search engine after Google - so treat it that way. By optimising your titles, descriptions, products, and tags, you improve search visibility, build presence, and boost long-term growth. Want to generate more customers? Work with experts who know how to make content discoverable from day one.

8.End to end support from a Youtube specialist

From idea to export, everything needs to be tight - especially if you're serious about Youtube success. A solid video production company won’t just film and edit - they’ll support you with strategy, audience research, sales-driven storytelling, and turning your channel into a conversion machine. This is about more than likes - this is about business growth, monetization, meeting your goals, and making Youtube a core pillar of your marketing stack.

Frequently asked questions

WHAT DOES A MONTHLY 
RETAINER LOOK LIKE?

One of the fastest ways to grow on Youtube is to upload consistently and is crucial to your success. To achieve this you need an 'always on' content generation machine plugged into your brand channel. That's what our monthly retainers look like, a Youtube specialist extension of your team and not just lots of projects. Some say we're next level, but we'll let you decide!Our clients benefit from our specialist creative minds on a regular basis, have proven pre-built systems and have a consistent feed of videos being uploaded out on their socials & Youtube channels.  We get that, and that's why whether you're looking for a Youtube documentary, Youtube videos or social-first Youtube shorts, we consider ourselves a video production agency that will never let you down.

WHAT IS TRENDY
GRANDADS PROCESS?

At Trendy Grandad, we’re a YouTube video production company that partners with brands on a monthly retainer to consistently create scroll-stopping content. From concept, pre-production, communication to final cut, our process is built around storytelling that works across social platforms and formats.We handle everything - from script writing and casting to filming and editing - so that your footage isn’t just beautiful, it’s strategic. With a sharp focus on Youtube-first video marketing, we ensure each production hits the mark, drives engagement, and delivers lasting impact on YouTube, social media and beyond. (Did buzz lightyear write this?)

HOW MUCH DOES A
VIDEO PROJECT COST?

Video can cost £500, it can cost £50,000. We are very transparent when it comes to cost & why this question is so difficult to answer is because there are so many factors to video and film production. The reality is, if you're looking to grow on Youtube, the average cost would be anywhere between £5,000 to £20,000 a month and this would need to be invested for a couple of years.If you're a premium brand, you will want a good looking set, high quality talent, vibey footage and a high quality production - this won't be a small amount of money. Our best advice is to find as many references as you can to put in your brief so the production company you choose has an idea of your expectations. Secondly, if you have a budget, share this with us, as it helps us in the ideation stage come up with an idea that fits in with your costs.

WILL TRENDY GRANDAD
FILM ANYWHERE?

Trendy Grandad have physical offices in London, Manchester & New York City. However, we have filmed in the field most corners of the world. We regularly film on location in the UK & America however have filmed for National Geographic in Switzerland and a online commercial in New Zealand - all part of our great video production service.So, yes, we travel and film in the field a lot!

Why do you specialise
IN YOUTUBE?

We create Youtube videos, not just videos. This has been video agencies mantra and vision from the start and the reason why most brands fail in the Youtube space. Because they treat Youtube as their video dumping ground or attack it like they would a meta strategy. Youtube is an entirely new planet and with that, it needs a seperate strategy, budget & approach.Over the years we've become experts in building & growing channels for brands that want to build a community and new revenue stream in the Youtube world.Arguably, we are the now considered one of London & New York's leading Youtube & Social first specialist video production companies. So, if you're looking for a top level London based video production or New York based Youtube video production team - lets chat!

WHAT ARE YOUR VIDEO
