We’ve officially added a new piece of gear to the Bunker Hill Media lineup… and this one flies.

After years of pushing our aerial footage with earlier DJI drones, we finally made the upgrade to the DJI Mavic 3 Pro and we’re obsessed. This drone isn’t just another tool in the kit; it’s a creative powerhouse that’s already changing the way we approach our shoots across Boston and beyond.

Whether it’s capturing images of a waste water treatment plant from the sky, establishing a sweeping shot for a corporate brand film of the Boston skyline, or adding that perfect cinematic reveal in post, this drone gives us a new level of flexibility and image quality we’ve been craving.

Congratulations! You’ve recorded your podcast episode. Whether it’s your first or your fiftieth, getting that content out into the world is what really counts.

When it comes to corporate video production, having a reliable two-camera setup can be the difference between a simple talking-head video and a polished, cinematic interview that feels like a brand film.

At Bunker Hill Media, we shoot interviews every week for corporate clients, brand stories, testimonials, and a whole bunch of other types of video. What I can tell you is our go-to setup has been the Sony FX6 and Sony FX3. These two cameras are a dream team: cinematic quality, reliable autofocus, matching color science, and easy workflow integration.

Here’s exactly how we build our two-camera setup for professional interviews, plus a few tips to help your next dual camera video shoot look its absolute best.

Last week, we kicked off one of our favorite kinds of projects - a brand story production that blends interviews, b-roll, and a strong narrative to tell a company’s story in an authentic way.

This time, our partner is EESSCO, a Massachusetts-based company specializing in equipment solutions for the aggregate and material handling industry. We’re producing a suite of video and photo content for their brand new website launch, and after wrapping our first shoot day, we couldn’t wait to share a few behind-the-scenes moments.

Most people assume you need a big, fancy camera to photograph the Northern Lights but that’s not true anymore. With the latest iPhones, you can capture the aurora beautifully if you know a few tricks. Whether you’re traveling to Iceland, Norway, or northern Maine, your phone might be all you need to bring the moment home.

We’ve photographed the Northern Lights on both professional cameras and iPhones and honestly, the iPhone held its own. So, let’s get right to it.

If you’ve ever Googled best videographers in Boston, you know you’re not alone. This city is overflowing with creative talent — from independent filmmakers to full-scale production companies — and choosing the right one for your project can be overwhelming.

At Bunker Hill Media, we’re not here to just throw our name into the mix. We’re here to show you why we’ve become a trusted name in Boston video production, and what makes working with our small, dedicated team different. Because when you hire us, you’re not just getting people with cameras — you’re getting storytellers, collaborators, and strategists who understand how to bring your brand to life.

If you run a business in Boston in 2025, you already know how powerful video can be. Whether you’re launching a new product, trying to connect with customers, or attracting new talent, video helps you tell your story in a way that nothing else can. But here’s where many businesses get stuck:
What’s the difference between a brand video and a corporate video — and which one do you actually need?

At Bunker Hill Media, our Boston video production company creates both, but for completely different reasons. While the two overlap in style and quality, their purpose, tone, and target audience couldn’t be more different. Let’s break it down.

Boston is overflowing with creative talent - from indie filmmakers to full-service production teams - but not every videographer fits every project. Whether you’re a business planning a brand video, a couple capturing an engagement, or a nonprofit documenting an event, choosing the right videographer in Boston can make the difference between a forgettable video and one that actually moves people.

When I watched the latest episode of On Purpose with Emma Watson, I realized that for audiences, watching – not just listening to – podcasts is the future of the medium. Somehow, a world that had issue with watching anything for more than 15 seconds is suddenly entering a new era where one can watch 2+ hours of three stable shots on the same two people. It’s a miracle (and it might not seem real) but more and more of these videos are popping up across platforms on the web.

When you’re hiring a video production company in Boston, you’re not just hiring people – you’re hiring their tools, experience, and creative vision. At Bunker Hill Media, we believe being transparent about the gear we use helps clients understand the level of quality we bring to every project. The cameras, lenses, lighting, audio, and grip equipment we bring to set aren’t just name brands – they’re professional tools that allow us to create cinematic visuals and reliable results for corporate videos, brand stories, testimonials, and events across Boston.

Here’s a look at our gear in 2025, why we’ve chosen Sony as our camera ecosystem, and how this setup helps us deliver professional videography services in Boston and beyond.

Setting the video production stage…

If you’re running a business in Boston in 2025, you already know how competitive the market is. From the Seaport to Kendall Square, every brand is fighting for attention. But here’s the truth: no matter how sharp your website looks or how catchy your tagline is, nothing connects with your audience like video. And not just any video — a corporate brand video that shows who you are, what you stand for, and why people should trust you.

Artificial intelligence is everywhere in 2025, and video production is no exception. From AI-generated stock footage to automated editing tools and even AI avatars, there’s no denying that AI has made parts of the production process faster and more efficient.

But let’s be clear: if you want to produce professional-grade video content that feels authentic and hooks your audience, AI falls short.

The Sony FX30 and the Nikon ZR are two cameras everyone’s talking about in 2025. Both are aimed at filmmakers who want “cinema-style” features without breaking the bank, but they couldn’t be more different. The FX30 is Sony’s entry-level Cinema Line body — basically a baby FX3 — while the Nikon ZR is Nikon’s bold attempt to crash the party with specs that sound like they belong on a RED.

So, which one is worth your money? Let’s break it down.

Hear ye, hear ye! It has been exactly one year since I dramatically announced to the internet that I was aware of my typos and didn’t plan to fix them. A true milestone. And against all odds, here you are again, reading another one of my ramblings! Hello to my fans (aka: mom, dad, maybe a Google crawler bot). It was September 18th last year that I realized that maybe we were getting some more traction to our website and I was like man, maybe I should actually write a blog for once.

Let’s make it a tradition - here we are one year later.

Here’s the business update: I am actually kind of proud of myself. Over the last year, I kept hammering away at these blogs, stuffing them with SEO keywords like “Boston video production company” and “Boston videographers” (hi Google!) and the wild thing is it worked. There is a lot more that has gone into it, but let’s just say it’s been a really long process that has paid off.

TLDR : If you’re already invested in the Sony ecosystem, there’s no reason to panic - don’t feel like you need to ditch the FX3 for the Nikon ZR. While the ZR is impressive, a lot of its appeal is built on headline specs that look flashy but won’t matter for 99% of working filmmakers. Things like “internal RAW recording” or “32-bit float audio” sound amazing, but most people reading this blog aren’t using them — and probably had to look up what they even mean.

That’s because Nikon essentially took features you’d expect on a RED camera and packaged them into something affordable for creators who don’t really need them.

Now, if you’re buying your very first camera, the ZR’s lower price and larger monitor might be tempting. But for me, it always comes back to real-world use. The FX3’s high native ISO of 12,800 is something I rely on every single shoot, and it’s the reason I wouldn’t trade it for the ZR. Specs are cool - but dependability in low light is what wins jobs.

The FX6’s native ISOs are 800 and 12800. On this note, let’s dive into what native ISO is and why should you care.

If you’ve spent any time behind a camera, you’ve probably heard people talking about “native ISO.” It’s one of those terms that gets tossed around in filmmaking circles, but many shooters don’t fully understand what it means - or why it’s so important for clean, professional-looking footage. In this post, we’re breaking it down with the Sony FX6 as our main example, since it’s one of the most popular cinema cameras in 2025 and a staple for Boston video production.

Short answer: yes. Long answer: you’re about to read it.

When people think about video production, they usually picture cameras, drones, lights, and actors. But one of the most overlooked parts of a successful brand video is the script. Not necessarily a word-for-word teleprompter read, but a clear outline of what you're saying, showing, and communicating.

In 2025, brands in Boston (and beyond) are investing more in video than ever. But without a plan on paper, you risk wasting time, overspending, and ending up with content that doesn't land.

Let’s be real: most people don’t know what to expect when they show up to a video shoot. And that’s totally normal. Whether it’s your first time on camera or you’ve done a dozen content days with other teams, working with Bunker Hill Media means you’re not walking in blind.

Drone footage has become a staple in modern video production. Whether you’re showcasing a Boston skyline, capturing a real estate property, or highlighting an event, aerial shots add cinematic impact that makes your video stand out. But here’s the catch: not just anyone can grab a drone and start flying — especially not in Boston’s crowded and heavily regulated airspace.

If you’re a business owner looking to hire a Boston videographer for a commercial project, it’s critical to understand what kind of licensing and clearance your drone operator should have. Choosing the wrong person could put you at risk for fines, legal issues, and even safety hazards.
