  At Orange Fox, the word ‘boring’ has been banished to the fiery depths of hell. We encourage our clients to remove it from their vocabulary. We challenge our business partners to think differently as we believe the secret to good video storytelling is authenticity. The best marketing adverts don’t sell you a product or a service, they make you feel something. Laughter. Tears. Excitement. As video storytellers, it’s our job to help customers understand a company’s values through useful, original or unique video content. Video should always have a purpose and bring value to your customer, whether through laughter, practical advice or creative insights. Customers look to you for education, entertainment and excitement, and your ultimate goal is engagement. Orange Fox has a grown into fluid, full service visual communications agency based in Leicester’s cultural quarter. Our strong network of creative talent that includes cinematographers, animators, video editors and design experts means we can tailor-make the team that suits your brief. Show less
