We had a fantastic experience with Baseline Cinematic. The quality of the video work was impressive, and the drone footage added a whole new level to the finished project. Everything looked polished, smooth, and professionally produced. You can tell they care about the details and take pride in their work. The final result exceeded expectations, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing high-quality videography or aerial footage.

These folks know how it’s done! They made a gorgeous video of my property, including my home and the lake that it sits on when I put it up for sale. They knew exactly how to highlight the best features of the property and I highly recommend Baseline Cinematic!

Commercial FAQ

Do we need to write a script for our brand video?

Not necessarily! If you have a script, that's great. If not, we handle the creative direction. We can interview you or your staff, pull the best soundbites, and build the story organically in the editing room.

How do we prepare our business and staff for a shoot?

We try to be as non-disruptive as possible. For social media retainers, we just capture your team working naturally. For brand films, we will schedule a brief planning call to discuss staging, lighting, and any specific uniforms or branding you want featured.

Can you provide videos specifically for TikTok and Instagram Reels?

Yes, absolutely. Our Social Media Retainer package is designed exactly for this. We shoot vertically using our stabilized ground cameras and edit short, punchy, high-retention videos that perform incredibly well on social algorithms.

Do you charge a travel fee?

Shoots within 50 miles of Pekin and Peoria have no travel fee. Beyond that, it's $50 for 50–75 miles, $100 for 75–100 miles, and a custom quote for anything over 100 miles. You'll always know the travel fee before you book.
