There’s only one thing better than making a great video, and that’s knowing it will somehow help make the world a better place – or help someone in need.
Since we started out Dragonfly has built relationships with a number of regional, national and international charities including Carers UK, Oxfam and the Red Cross.

A Princes Trust
Supported Business
Dragonfly was itself established on a loan from the Princes Trust in 2004. A donation was given to Dragonfly’s founder that we gratefully received in order to do what we love; making videos.
Since then our company has made it one of our priorities to give back, taking on charity video projects whenever we can. There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing that the work you’re producing will help people.
We’ve come full circle with the Princes Trust, making them a video so that others can take advantage of the help we once had. We’re extremely proud of our association with such a fantastic organisation that gives people who need it a helping hand.
EMOTIONALLY RELEVANT, ENGAGING AND
MEANINGFUL
Getting the most out of
your campaign
At Dragonfly we have worked with a great deal of charities that are looking for a video production as part of a larger media campaign to spread awareness and raise funds. Charity videos take a little extra care and attention in order to achieve the best results and we ensure that we go through the necessary steps every time we start a new project.
It’s a method has led to countless successful advertising and fundraising drives, and we are sure that it can help you when you are coming up with a video campaign for charity too. We’ve put all of our experience together and created an essential resource for anyone who’s thinking of making a video for their charity .
Using high quality film and graphics to inspire change and
boost awareness and support for causes that really matter.
Ensuring a return on
your investment
At Dragonfly we have worked closely with a wealth of charities over the years, producing advertising videos, awareness campaigns and infomercials that have helped many good causes make a real impact. We take a special pride in our charitable productions because knowing that the work we’re doing can make a real difference to peoples’ lives is a powerful incentive. We want to help, and we’re always eager to get started on new projects.
Whether you’re a social enterprise or an established charity, video can be an extremely powerful tool to bring in donations or other funding, and to deliver your important message. With video you can get your point across in a short, sharp and impactful way, or communicate complex or sensitive information in a simple way through the use of animation.

WHAT WE DO
Talking Head Videos
Capturing natural conversation
We use a specialist piece of equipment called an ‘eye direct’. The ‘eye direct’ allows us to obscure the camera, and replace the lens with a reflection of the interviewer’s face. When we film a subject, they’re talking to a person, not a camera, and that shows on the screen.
Combatting
camera-shyness
Sincere conversations
Instill trust in your business
A quality talking head video can be an authentic depiction of your brand, helping you stand out from the crowd and making a measurable difference to how you communicate with your audience.

A charity video produced as part of Dogs Trusts’ Christmas campaign
Dragonfly had the pleasure of working with Manchester United’s Chris Smalling to produce this video for the Dogs Trust.
