THE GAP

FGF Brands is not just a bakery—it is a technology company that bakes. With facilities across the US and Canada, a startup culture, and ambitious sustainability goals, FGF requires video content that matches its scale and vision. Traditional corporate video production falls flat here; FGF needs modern content that captures the exact precision of your technology and the genuine warmth of your people all engineered through a lens of creativity.

THE SOLUTION

With 7 years of experience with FGF across multiple shoots and locations, this is a dedicated video production partnership built around FGF's three core content pillars. Shayne Gray and Nick Merzetti bring world-class cinematography, operational filming expertise, and digital enhancement capabilities to every project — delivering content that is as forward-thinking as the FGF brand.

THREE PILLARS OF CONTENT

Hover or tap each card to see how we add value

A

INTERNAL CORPORATE

  • Training & instructional videos
  • Employee testimonials & leadership messages
  • Interview-style content
  • Corporate milestone & anniversary storytelling

HOW WE ADD VALUE

We create a comfortable, directed environment with interview setups, controlled lighting, and scripted or semi-scripted content. We specialize in directing non-actors and executives to deliver authentic, confident performances — aligning seamlessly with your HR and Comms teams.

B

OPERATIONS / BAKERY

  • Production line & facility tours
  • Drone footage & high-angle shots
  • Time-lapse & process-focused filming
  • Safety, scale & efficiency emphasis

HOW WE ADD VALUE

We operate with a minimal crew footprint, capturing fast-moving machinery without disrupting operations. Drone work, high-angle rigs, and time-lapse are pre-approved and coordinated with facility managers. We work like a documentary crew — efficient, unobtrusive, and prepared — not a traditional commercial production that shuts down a floor.

C

DIGITALLY ENHANCED VIDEOS

  • Motion graphics & animations
  • Digital overlays & data visualization
  • 3D elements & post-production enhancements
  • Branded storytelling with modern visual techniques

HOW WE ADD VALUE

Visual enhancements aren't an afterthought — we shoot with the digital layer in mind from day one, ensuring clean plates and a seamless blend of live-action and modern motion graphics. Our experience directing for cutting-edge creative brands gives us a distinct advantage in delivering a modern, elevated take that competitors simply can't match.
