What does Watchpost do?

Watchpost is a creative video production and post-production agency based in Adelaide, Australia. We help brands, organisations, and filmmakers tell their stories through strategy, production, editing, colour, VFX, sound, and final delivery.

How is Watchpost different from a marketing agency?

We’re a proudly specialised video agency with over three decades of combined experience in film, video, and post-production. Rather than spreading ourselves thin, we focus on what we do best—leveraging our craft and agency know-how to deliver world-class, award-winning results. Alongside video, we support clients with strategy, copywriting, and execution, ensuring campaigns are both creative and effective. Many organisations with strong in-house marketing teams see us as their creative partner, executing focused brand strategies where video sits at the heart of the campaign.

What services do you offer?

Our in-house team covers the full production pipeline including creative and content strategy, scriptwriting, full-service production, commercials and brand films, social media content, editing, colour grading, animation, visual effects, and sound finishing.

Do you work internationally?

Yes. While we’re based in Adelaide, we regularly deliver projects across Australia and internationally, partnering with clients and crews around the world.

What is your production process?

We guide projects from idea to delivery through discovery, creative development, production, post-production, and final delivery optimised for cinema, broadcast, and digital platforms.

How much does a video cost?

Budgets vary depending on scale and complexity. Social content may cost a few thousand dollars, while high-end brand films or broadcast projects can reach six figures. We tailor solutions to suit your goals and provide clear estimates upfront.

What kinds of clients do you work with?

We work with corporate, government, and not-for-profit organisations, as well as agencies and filmmakers. Our clients span a wide range of industries and include leading Australian and international brands.

Do you handle post-production only?

Yes. We frequently collaborate with external production companies, agencies, and directors, providing editing, colour grading, sound design, visual effects, and finishing services.

Can you help with social media content?

Yes. We create platform-optimised content including multiple aspect ratios, cut-downs, captions, and deliverables designed to maximise engagement and reach.

What makes Watchpost unique?

We combine the heart of storytellers with the precision of post-production specialists. Our nimble team and film-inspired approach enable us to deliver work that is both creatively compelling and technically exceptional.

What’s the difference between a videographer and a production company?

Videographers are ideal for smaller projects that require a single operator. As a full-service production company, we bring a dedicated director, cinematographer, and broader team to deliver more complex productions. This allows for a more tailored creative approach, stronger direction of on-screen talent, and a higher level of technical and creative execution. We also offer standalone videography services when appropriate.

Do you create AI videos?

Yes. We actively integrate generative AI into our workflow and have been doing so for over two years. In August 2025, we created our first full product video using entirely AI-driven tools. We’re excited to help clients explore this emerging production approach.

What industries do you specialise in?

Since 2012, we’ve worked across a broad range of industries for corporate, government, and not-for-profit clients. We have particularly deep experience in higher education, technology and manufacturing, emerging technologies and defence, primary industries, health, and tourism.

Do you offer fixing (line production) services?

Yes. We provide full line production and fixing services for interstate and international productions filming in Australia. With over 15 years of experience and a trusted national crew network, we handle everything from permits and locations to crewing, casting, logistics, and post handover, ensuring your production runs smoothly, on time, and on budget.

We work across strategy,

production and post-production.

We create anything that can be

seen or heard.
