Lancôme brand video
Beauty campaignA beauty campaign film with talent, lit and graded so the product reads the way it does in print.
Beauty and fashion video production
We film for beauty, skincare, fragrance and fashion brands: campaign films, product and texture work, talent shoots, 3D product animation and the vertical cutdowns that actually run on social. Studio in Irvine, crews across Southern California.
One studio day usually produces the campaign film, the product cuts and a batch of verticals, which is how a DTC brand fills a quarter of content. Or build your own estimate in two minutes.

Scope and approvalsWe map the campaign, the channels it has to fill and everyone who signs off: brand, ecommerce and legal.-
Paperwork before camerasTalent releases, usage terms and any claim wording go through your team before the shoot day, not after it.
-
Studio, talent and stylingWe book the studio, the talent, hair and makeup, and we build a shot list that covers hero, product and vertical in one day.
-
FilmingControlled lighting, macro and texture passes, talent coverage and vertical framing captured on the day rather than cropped later.
-
Edit, grade and retouchFirst cut, two rounds of notes, colour grade so the product matches pack, captions, and every cutdown your channels need.
-

What beauty and fashion video production means here
Beauty and fashion video production is the making of films for beauty, skincare, fragrance, personal care and apparel brands: campaign and brand films, product and texture work, talent and lifestyle shoots, 3D product animation, vertical social batches and paid cutdowns. 7 Hills Productions has produced this work for Lancôme, GloryCloud, Lansley and Chala, from a studio in Irvine, California.
One studio day usually produces a campaign film, a set of product cuts and a batch of verticals, which is what makes a full content quarter affordable.
1Who is it for?
Beauty, skincare and fragrance brands, personal care and wellness products, apparel and accessories labels, DTC and marketplace sellers, and the agencies buying on their behalf.
2What does it cost?
A typical campaign is $9,000 to $13,500: pre-production, one studio day and one finished film, plus cutdowns. Product-only days start lower.
3How long does it take?
About four weeks from shoot day to the final film, with two rounds of notes built in.
Every beauty and fashion video we make
Eight formats, each with a service page of its own.
What beauty video costs in Southern California
Real ranges rather than a call for a quote. Every number below assumes one crew, one studio day and one finished film.
| Package | Typical range | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign or brand film | $9,000–$13,500 | Pre-production, one studio day and one finished film, plus cutdowns |
| Product and texture film | $6,000–$12,500 | One studio day, hero plus macro passes, one finished film |
| Vertical social batch | $6,000–$15,000 | A batch of vertical cuts captured and edited from one day |
| 3D product animation | $6,000–$15,000 | Modelling, animation and finishing, no shoot day |
| Paid ad or commercial | $9,000–$25,000 | Concept, one or two shoot days, and channel versions |
| Studio day at our Irvine stage | $750–$1,500 | Stage only, crew and equipment quoted separately |
| Extra cutdown | $750 | Any additional cut from footage already shot |
Building your own scope? Pre-production runs $1,000 to $1,500, a shoot day $6,000 to $8,000, and editing $2,000 to $4,000 per finished film. Cutdowns are $750 each. A second finished film from the same footage adds an edit fee, not another shoot day. These match our pricing page and budget estimator.
Why beauty and fashion brands hire us
We own the studio
Our Irvine stage means controlled light, a long day without location fees, and product and talent shot back to back.
Product has to match pack
Colour grade is not a filter here. The film is graded so the shade on screen is the shade in the box.
Vertical shot vertical
Social cuts are framed on the day. Cropping a horizontal hero is why most brand verticals look wrong.
Texture and macro in the same day
Macro passes, pours, swatches and application coverage are captured alongside the hero film.
3D where the camera stops
Mechanism, layers and what happens under the skin are animated rather than faked with lighting.
One day, a quarter of content
A campaign film, a set of product cuts and a batch of verticals from a single studio day.

Beauty and fashion video production FAQs
How much does a beauty campaign video cost?
A campaign or brand film runs $9,000 to $13,500, which includes pre-production, one studio day, one finished film and cutdowns. Product-only days start lower.
How long does it take?
About four weeks from shoot day to the final film. Booking usually runs two to three weeks ahead.
Do you book talent, hair and makeup?
Yes. We handle casting, hair and makeup, styling and the release paperwork, and we agree usage terms before the shoot day.
Can you shoot vertical and horizontal in one day?
Yes, and we do. Vertical is framed on the day rather than cropped from a horizontal hero, which is why our social cuts hold up.
Can you match the product colour to the packaging?
Yes. The grade is built around the product, and we work from your pack and swatch references rather than a look preset.
Do you do 3D product animation?
Yes, for mechanism, layers and anything a camera cannot reach. No shoot day is needed for a purely animated piece.
Do you have a studio?
Yes, in Irvine. The stage runs $750 to $1,500 a day on its own, and it is where most product and talent work happens.
Do you work with agencies?
Yes. A large share of this work comes through creative and media agencies, white labelled where that is what the client needs.
Who owns the footage?
You do. You get the finished films and the masters, and access to the raw footage is limited to the people you name.
