This powerful campaign video was designed to confront water companies and hold them accountable to do more to protect British waters.
As a leading video production company in the South West, we’re incredibly passionate about helping our coastal communities thrive. We are proud to have contributed to such an important cause and look forward to working with more organisations that share our passion for creating positive change through video.

Key deliverables:
We teamed up with environmental charity Surfers Against Sewage and the creative team at Mr President to capture the creation of The Floater—a surfboard crafted entirely from ocean waste and raw sewage.
Surfers Against Sewage is one of the UK’s leading marine conservation charities dedicated to protecting oceans, beaches, waves, and marine wildlife. From their humble beginnings in 1990 as a small group on the north coast of Cornwall, SAS has evolved into a thriving campaigning charity made up of people who love the ocean and want to see it thrive.
About the collaborators
Mr President is an independent creative agency that helps brands stand out and share their message across channels.
Niall Jones is the creative designer of “The Floater” and owner of Benthos Surf Co, a Falmouth-based company that specialises in making surfboards and surf hardware, as well as offering one-off surfboard building workshops.
Surfers Against Sewage needed a powerful video to support their ongoing campaign against sewage pollution. With a 45% rise in sewage discharges reported across England in just one year, they wanted to go big and bold with their message.
They needed a campaign video that stops people mid-scroll and sparks public conversations.
We were approached by the award-winning creative agency, Mr President, as we already have a strong working relationship with the project’s designer, Niall Jones, who recommended us for our creative style and technical expertise.
The team liked our style and trusted us to deliver a campaign video that would not only look incredible but also inspire real public reaction.
As a trusted video production company in Cornwall and the South West, we’re known for creating high-impact films for environmental campaigns and for bringing bold ideas to life.
We embraced a bold, creative direction focused on the shock value of transforming raw sewage into a surfboard—The Floater. By capturing the process in cinematic detail and layering it with urgent facts and heartfelt interviews, we shaped a powerful narrative with a strong visual and emotional impact.
We take great pride in the work we do, but nothing means more to us than hearing your feedback. Take a look at what some of our valued clients have to say.
“Their ability to capture and turn vision into compelling, captivating and hard-hitting video is fantastic. They have great direction, which makes for really powerful storytelling through video, and they’re great people to work with. Thanks SW Productions for your professionalism and quality of work!”
We’re born explorers and love to tell the stories of brands and communities both near and far. While we are primarily based in Plymouth and do most of our work across the South West and London, we can (and have) travelled nationally and globally.
Additional travel costs and fees may be factored into our service, depending on location.
Our video production prices vary due to the bespoke nature of our work. We treat each client’s needs individually and create customised proposals based on the type of service they require and their expectations. Our baseline day for shooting footage starts at £950 (+ VAT), and our day rate for video editing starts at £500 (+ VAT).
Contact us to discuss your video production project and potential prices.
We’ve helped businesses of all sizes, from local companies like South West Surfacing Specialists to international brands like Salesforce. Our ideal clients are established brands, companies, and non-profit organisations in the sustainability industry. We love building lasting relationships with established organisations who share our core values of quality, creativity, and sustainability and are invested in the project.
Some brands come to us with a clear vision, while others need a little help putting ideas on paper. We offer storyboarding services for video projects that need them to explore creative ideas and get everyone on the same page before filming begins.
That really depends on what you want to achieve and the audience you’re targeting. Promo videos are excellent for promoting a new product or service, while brand documentaries can send powerful messages about an important cause. You can also use social media videos to raise brand awareness and engage your target audience.
Our services flex to your specific goals. If you’re unsure what you’re looking for, get in touch and bounce ideas off our video team.
At SW Productions, we’re leading the way in the South West video production industry. We bring ideas to life with bold creativity, cutting-edge technology, and a knack for storytelling. Call us today on 01752 270 773 or tell us about your idea, and let’s get the ball rolling!
