Artificial Intelligence in Business
Artificial Intelligence in Business
TakeOne produced a horizontal and vertical promotional video for Tallinn University of Technology’s Artificial Intelligence in Business study programme, combining interviews with programme representatives, campus footage, drone shots, graphics and subtitles.
...and a blooper reel
During post-production, TalTech asked whether we could also prepare a blooper reel for 1 April.
We created an additional branded video from unused takes and delivered it ahead of the requested date.
The more informal version gave the client another piece of social-media content while keeping the visual identity of the main campaign.

fire safety videos
fire safety videos
TakeOne produced three scripted fire-safety videos covering kitchen fires, smoking in bed, and candle and fireplace hazards.
We developed the scripts, prepared locations and props, directed firefighters and other participants, filmed the scenes, and completed the editing, graphics, sound design and visual effects.
Each video was delivered in Estonian and Russian and in both horizontal and vertical formats.

Kitchen Fire Hazards
Kitchen and living room interiors were recreated inside a working fire station using available rooms, furniture, plants, props and our own lighting to imitate the outside light.
Additional smoke and fire effects were added in post-production.

Candle and Fireplace Hazards
Filming children is always a happy challenge. Everything on set is new, unusual, and much more interesting than the thing they are supposed to do.
The trick is to turn the required action into something that feels like a game. In this case, “show us how quickly you can blow out these candles” worked perfectly.

Smoking Fire Hazards
Since we could not film actual lighting of the cigarette inside the fire station, closeup shots of the cigarette were filmed outdoors in the fire station yard in the evening and lit to mimic the indoor lighting.
Additional smoke effects were added in post-production.

One video in several languages and formats
Public-sector and international projects often need to reach several language groups at once. We can prepare separate language versions of the same video with translated subtitles, captions, on-screen text, voice-over, graphics, and final export files adapted for each audience.
Additionally, each video can be produced in horizontal (for television and computer screens) and vertical (for smartphone screens) formats.

IOM Estonia, the UN Migration Agency, commissioned an instructional video explaining how refugees can find a family doctor in Estonia.
Because the video contained forms, website recordings, and detailed procedural information, we suggested creating a separate voice-over version for each language.
The video was produced in horizontal and vertical formats and localised into English, Ukrainian and Russian, resulting in six final versions.
English language vertical format
Ukrainian language vertical format
Russian language vertical format
Accessibility
We can prepare video versions that are easier to follow without sound and more suitable for deaf or hard-of-hearing audiences. This can include clear embedded subtitles, clean .srt subtitle files, readable subtitle placement, slower pacing where needed, and careful use of graphics so that important visual information does not compete with the text.

English subtitles for hard-of-hearing
Russian subtitles for hard-of-hearing
Photography
We provide professional photography for public sector organisations, NGOs, and civic initiatives - from events and conferences to portraits, project documentation, service environments, campaign materials, and everyday work behind the scenes.
Depending on the project, we can photograph speakers, participants, teams, beneficiaries, working processes, locations, activities, and important project moments. We can also create professional portraits and group photos on location using proper lighting, without needing a separate studio setup.
The final images can be used for websites, reports, social media, press materials, internal communication, partner updates, funding reports, and future campaigns.

Post-production | video cleanup
We provide detailed post-production for both video and photo materials, ensuring every frame looks clean, professional, and aligned with its message.
By editing out unwanted objects, random people, or visual distractions, we ensure visual clarity, help maintain focus on key messages, and present your project in the best possible light.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can you help develop the idea or script?Yes. For public-sector and educational videos, we can help shape the message, structure the script, prepare interview questions, and suggest visual solutions that make the information clearer on screen.
- Can you create videos in several languages?Yes. We can prepare separate video versions in different languages with translated subtitles, captions, on-screen graphics, voice-over, or clean .srt subtitle files, depending on the project.
- Can you make videos accessible for deaf or hard-of-hearing audiences?Yes. We can create versions with clear embedded subtitles, clean subtitle files, and formatting that makes the video easier to follow without sound.
For some projects, we can also adapt the edit so that subtitles, graphics, and important visual information do not compete with each other. - Can you film public-sector events and conferences?Yes. We can film and photograph conferences, forums, seminars, public discussions, consultations, training events, and international project events.
The material can be delivered as an event summary film, speaker recordings, interviews, photos, social media clips, or promotional material for the next event. - Can you film interviews and video presentations with officials, experts, or participants?Yes. We can prepare a suitable interview setup, help with questions, arrange lighting and sound, and guide people who are not used to being on camera.
For presentation videos where the narrator talks directly into the camera, we can provide a teleprompter — a transparent screen with the text on it. This means the narrator does not need to remember the text by heart and can instead read it at a comfortable pace while looking straight into the camera. - Can you work with EU-funded or international projects?Yes. We have experience creating content for international organisations, universities, NGOs, public-sector organisations, and publicly funded projects.
We can provide the necessary company documents for EU- and US-funded projects where required, and we take project deadlines, NDAs, reporting needs, brand guidelines, and other requirements seriously. - Do you work outside Estonia?Yes. We film projects all around Estonia, and can also work across Europe, depending on the project, schedule, and production needs.
