The story OF OUR USA VIDEO PRODUCTION
COMPANY

From humble beginnings and one trendy grandad (yes, there is a real life trendy grandad) Best friends and co-founders Stokely and Adam set off with a vision to help global brands generate more money using the power of highly converting non-corporate video production , genius right? So, if you're looking for video production services or a video marketing agency, we're your team! 

We're on a jouRNEy to transform the way GLobal  brands use video CONTENT.

We are the now the specialist in two types of video production services, the first is social-first video production, creating highly performing winning social media ads for brands, and the second is Youtube video production! To keep it simple, if you're looking for a social-first video production agency, we've been doing for over a decade now for some of the world vibey-ist brands! (Yes - we just made that word up!)


Through hard graft and countless late nights, the results began to speak for themselves. Our brands were not only seeing insane ad metrics but also a massive increase in their bottom line, all down to their winning video ad commercial produced by TG.

As our reputation continued to grow, more brands took notice of our work, prompting us to take the next step and expand our video team, making us a team of 6 grandads (Disclaimer: none of which are actual Grandads, but we are video wizards)




When it comes to creating highly effective video content, we quickly realized that our work often delivers far more than just a return on investment - it generates real revenue.

That’s when we spotted a gap in the market for data-driven video production companies focused on business growth, not just views.

So, what did we do? We leveled up. While killer video production and premium content creation are our bread and butter, we decided to go beyond and offer a wide range of creative video solutions. From video editing and promo videos to product showcases and YouTube content-f it’s for social media or YouTube, we’ve got you covered. What’s it like working with Trendy Grandad?

Well, sure, we could tell you we’re the most fun video crew in New York, and we’d probably be right. But more importantly, we’re a hardworking, passionate team of creatives who are obsessed with all things video.

Whether it’s documentary-style shoots, finding the perfect locations, animating graphics, or producing thumb-stopping YouTube ads, we bring the expertise and the equipment to bring your vision to life, generate real engagement, and make some serious noise. Want to be our next amazing client? How can you work with Trendy Grandad?

There are plenty of ways to collaborate, but our monthly video production subscription is a firm favorite.

Brands love the consistency of having fresh, high-quality content rolling out regularly on their socials. If you’re in the YouTube game, we get how crucial consistent uploads and great storytelling are to success - we’ll make sure you never miss a beat so you can broadcast your new to the world and make more money!

Frequently asked questions

We get it, video, can be a minefield, we're here to take that stress away. Let's ease that burden right now by helping you with some answers to our most commonly asked questions to our video production company.

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'S TRENDY 
GRANDAD'S 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 $5000, 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 New York, Seattle,London, & Dubai. However, we have filmed in the field most corners of the world. We regularly film on location in the USA & UK, 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
PRODUCTION SERVICES?

Trendy Grandad offer full end to end video production services. What do we mean by that?Well, from co-writing your brief to strategy, ideation, casting, location scouting, filming, lighting, editing, animation & Youtube channel management - we pretty much do it all!When it comes to creating a video project that grabs attention, we hold over a two decades worth on expertise - some would say we're next level! (But we'll let you be the judges of that!) Ofcourse we have fun and work with a smile - all part of our end to end video production service!
