BTS this month at BearJam
This Month at BearJam: July Edition
Goshhh, it’s been a busy (and seriously hot) one! We’ve been flat out - both behind the camera and in the edit suite - so here’s a quick update on just some of the things we’ve been working on.
Wimbledon with Landsec
On the production front, we teamed up with Landsec to capture the buzz of Wimbledon, filming tennis fans soaking up the action across Farringdon and Victoria. Phoebe and Trey hit the streets to document the vibes at these buzzing summer spots.
Fresh Fish & Sustainability with Company of Cooks
We recently joined forces once again with Company of Cooks, this time to capture the beauty of seasonal, sustainable seafood - right at the source.
John, Phoebe, and Trey hit the road on Tuesday afternoon, arriving in Brixham, Devon with just 40 minutes to check into the hotel before heading straight to the harbour to start filming ( and of course Phoebe manged to get a small run in)!
That evening saw us deep in action inside a bustling fish production warehouse until 10:45pm - highlight (and chill) of the night? Filming in a -17°C freezer.
After a very quick kip, we were up at 5am to capture the calm of the harbour at sunrise, followed by a visit to the fish market to watch the day’s catch arrive and be sorted. We filmed a huge variety of fish and shellfish, all fresh off the boats - a brilliant (and slightly fishy) way to showcase sustainability in action.
More to come soon from this one - and yes, we’ve finally thawed out check out some of the BTS photos on instagram.
In the Edit Suite
Post-production has been buzzing. The team’s been deep into edits for Silverfin, Knight Frank, Landsec, and SD Worx, as well as internal and branded content reels. We're also cutting a slick AI reel, behind-the-scenes socials for Company of Cooks’ Behind the Plate, and exciting new content from Madfest.

BearJam on TikTok
This month, we’ve been having a bit of fun on TikTok - asking the team to share who they are and what makes BearJam… well, BearJam. It's your peek behind the scenes in more ways than one.
@bearjamvid It’s that time again… BearJam’s Weekly Highlight is back for round 2! 🎉🐻 This week we’re serving up another slice of what makes our world tick – bold moves, creative grooves, and moments that make us go: “Yep, that’s why we do what we do.” Whether it’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it BTS moment or a campaign that turned heads, we’re here to shout about it. Same time next week? You know it. #BearJamHighlights #WeeklyDrop #bearjam #videoproduction #behindthescenes #videoproductioncompany

APA Sports Day Highlights
We also laced up for APA Sports Day - soaking up the sun, getting (just a little) competitive, and enjoying a cracking day out with the industry.
The highlights?
- Egg & Spoon Race: Led by James, Tristan, and Jakob - full commitment and big energy.
- Hula Hoop Relay: A full team effort that earned us a proud third place.
- Costume Race: We’re not going to lie… we were elite. We took first place, with John (aka “Coco”) absolutely stealing the show.
- 100m Sprint & Tug of War: Phoebe smashed it, taking first place in the women’s 100m!
We placed mid-table overall, but the energy and memories? Top tier.
Huge thanks to the APA for hosting an epic day.
Check out our Instagram reel for the full experience.
Big News: We’ve Launched Our AI Page!
Possibly the biggest update this month - we’ve officially launched the AI at BearJam page on our website.
AI video production offers a powerful toolset for creating content faster, smarter, and more cost-effectively. From generating visuals and animatics to automating editing, sound design, and even scripting, AI can streamline the production process while unlocking new creative possibilities. It’s particularly helpful for exploring conceptual ideas quickly, producing high-quality visuals without large-scale shoots, and tailoring content for different audiences at scale.
Rather than replacing creativity, AI enhances it - giving filmmakers and brands more time to focus on storytelling and strategy.
Never a dull moment - and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
See you next month - we've got some exciting projects just around the corner. Stay tuned via our socials!
