01 / What we do
From research
to rollout.
Take one service or the complete campaign. We plan it, create it, publish it and manage it, with professional production at the heart of everything we do.
Television & video production.
Television commercials, corporate and government video, documentaries and interviews, made to broadcast standard by experienced Darwin videographers, producers and editors.
Complete campaigns.
Commercial, community, organisational and election campaigns, from concept and strategy through production, publishing and management. We understand how to deliver a message, not just make it look good.
Social media strategy & management.
We plan the strategy, create the content and manage your pages for the campaign, from reels and photography to scheduling, paid advertising and reporting. Consistent, professional content without the time it takes to do it yourself.
Professional content creation.
Promotional films, interviews, photography, reels, graphics and campaign material, with one creative direction and the same professional standard on every platform.
Website design.
Professional websites built to work with your branding, video and social media. You own your website, we arrange the hosting, and there is no compulsory monthly management subscription.
Film crew & production support.
Camera, lighting, sound, aerial filming and live streaming for local and visiting productions across the Northern Territory.
Need experienced crew or production support in the Northern Territory?
Planning to film in Darwin? ↗︎Why TV Works
A campaign company.
Built on production.
Plenty of agencies can plan a campaign. Few can also produce it to broadcast standard. TV Works does both, so the strategy and the content come from the same experienced team.
Production standards most agencies can’t match
Thirty years of work for broadcasters including the BBC, ABC, SBS and Nine, applied to your social media, campaigns and website.
One team, one creative direction
The people who plan your campaign also film it, edit it and publish it, so your message stays consistent on every platform.
We know how to land a message
Commercial, community and election campaigns have taught us to start with the audience, not the camera.
Direct access to the people doing the work
You deal with Ian and Jennifer, not an account manager.
Whether you need one video, a social media campaign or a complete communications campaign, we’ll scope the work to your goals and budget.
Discuss your project ↗︎Corporate video production / Darwin & the Northern Territory
Your organisation.
Clearly communicated.
TV Works produces corporate video and government communications for businesses, agencies and organisations in Darwin and across the Northern Territory. We bring interviews, location footage, editing and sound together around the audience and purpose of your video.
Start with what people need to understand.
Tell us who will watch, what you need to explain and where the video will be used. We work through the message, interview approach, locations and production requirements with you before filming.
Plan the versions you need.
A website film, presentation video and social-media cutdown can have different requirements. Discuss durations, formats, graphics, captions and approval stages in the brief so we can scope the filming and finishing around your organisation.
Our portfolio includes Northern Territory Government campaign work, the RAD road-safety campaign featuring Mark Motlop, and the Pivotel Communications television commercial. Explore the examples below to see different ways we bring a message to the screen.
