The Weather Film did a lot of different things for us related to video production. Initially, we had a briefing call with The Weather Film  to give them some context about our new product so that they understood what we were trying to achieve and what we wanted to include in the final creative material.

This was a very new brand, even for us, so we were all figuring it out. Therefore, we didn’t have much to work from other than the fact that we wanted to make the video exciting, new, and fresh. Still, The Weather Film worked alongside us to create great work.

After providing The Weather Film with as much information as possible about our new product, they started to work on the concept phase. They regrouped on their end to put together a comprehensive deck with a lot of ideas.

We brought in The Weather Film to lead the creative production. Their team handled the entire filmmaking process:

Story refinement and scripting

Cinematic filming and visual tone development

Casting, on-location shoots, and production logistics

Voiceover and sound design

Final editing and post-production delivery

They maintained regular communication throughout and took feedback seriously. Their director was highly collaborative, and their visuals aligned beautifully with the tone we and our client wanted to strike.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The film premiered at the nonprofit’s climate summit and quickly gained traction online. It was picked up by two environmental film festivals and shared across the organization’s digital platforms. Performance results included:

Over 50% increase in page engagement during campaign week

Positive feedback from international climate partners and donors

Use in board-level presentations to demonstrate impact storytelling

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The Weather Film demonstrated strong project management throughout the engagement. They outlined a clear timeline from the start, communicated milestones consistently, and delivered every asset on or ahead of schedule.

They were highly responsive to our feedback — not just reacting quickly, but taking the time to understand the creative and strategic intent behind our requests. Communication was streamlined, and the team maintained a professional, solutions-oriented mindset at all stages.

Despite the fast turnaround and the layered approvals involved on our client’s side, The Weather Film stayed flexible, proactive, and calm under pressure. Their ability to balance creative ambition with logistical precision made them a reliable and efficient partner.

What was your primary form of communication with The Weather Film?

• In-Person Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The Weather Film team delivers more than visuals — they deliver intention. Their ability to take a socially complex topic and turn it into an emotionally authentic story is rare in commercial filmmaking. They understand pacing, tone, and messaging in a way that feels both editorial and cinematic.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Weather Film could have done differently?

A preliminary visual treatment or mood board could have been shared earlier in the process to align expectations more quickly, but once in post-production, everything flowed smoothly.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The Weather Film team brought a rare ability to translate complex geopolitical themes into powerful visual storytelling. They worked closely with our internal advisors to build a script that accurately reflected the security implications of climate change. Over eight weeks, they handled writing, filming, narration, and editing — producing a 2.5-minute film that combined original footage, global climate visuals, and animated overlays.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The film premiered during a closed-door session with diplomats and security experts at our regional MSC conference. It set the tone perfectly — sharp, thought-provoking, and visually outstanding. It has since been adapted for presentations with international policy organizations, and has helped open new lines of engagement on the climate-security nexus.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The Weather Film demonstrated excellent project management from start to finish. Despite the complexity of the subject matter and the high-profile audience we were targeting, they stayed on schedule without compromising on quality. Milestones were clearly defined, and we were given regular updates at every stage — from script development to final delivery.

Communication was responsive and thoughtful. They were quick to implement feedback and often anticipated our needs before we even voiced them. Given the sensitivity of the topic and the diplomatic context of our event, their ability to adapt with professionalism and discretion was particularly valuable. They delivered everything on time, and in some cases ahead of schedule.

What was your primary form of communication with The Weather Film?

In-Person Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What stood out most about The Weather Film was their ability to combine visual storytelling with policy-level nuance. They didn’t just produce a beautiful film — they understood the geopolitical weight behind the message and treated it with the seriousness it deserved. Their sensitivity to tone, especially when addressing a topic like climate-security, was exceptional.

They brought both artistic discipline and editorial integrity to the project — a rare combination, especially in the climate communication space. Their work felt informed, intentional, and genuinely moving

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Weather Film could have done differently?

If there’s one area they could strengthen, it would be providing an early visual prototype or scene board during pre-production. While their final vision was outstanding, seeing some visual direction sooner might have helped align expectations even earlier in the process. That said, they were very responsive to feedback and adjusted quickly once we got into post-production.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Weather Film could have done differently?

Only minor things — perhaps more structured weekly progress reports would help streamline communications, especially when working across different time zones. But overall, they were incredibly efficient.

All nine instructional videos were completed on time, which was critical because we wanted to launch the series prior to the start of caddie training season in the spring.

I've been impressed by how nimble and reasonable the team has been. LocalEyes has good contacts with quality videographers in so many different markets. Whenever we've needed to do a shoot outside of our home base of Chicago, they've been able to assemble a great team to help.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Weather Film could have done differently?

This is not an area for improvement, but I think it helped that we are comfortable working with people via video chat, email and text. If you are not as comfortable, you'll have to find a way to work around having people in different locations. This arrangement worked great for us, though.
