Paul Bates Videographer based in London.

I’m an award winning videographer and freelance filmmaker based in London covering all aspects of video production. This includes promotional videos, corporate films, event videos, drone filming, commercials and live video streaming. I cover smaller one-person filming jobs as videographer but also cater for much larger fully crewed jobs and I have a great team who work alongside me to produce high-quality engaging video content. I can take your video project from inception right the way through to delivery and you can feel comfortable knowing your project is in the hands of an expert trusted by brands such as Microsoft, Boots, The National Maritime museum, The Natural History Museum, Tesco, The Royal Hospital Chelsea and The Royal Society of Chemistry.
