Technical Assistance for Media Production
Your Marketing and Communications Partner
Authenticity is not an accessory to defence storytelling….It is the foundation.
Authentic Military Presence for Existing Media Productions
Black Site Media now provides specialist production assistance to defence manufacturers, creative agencies, and in-house media teams across the United Kingdom who require credible military presence within their own photography, video, or film productions.
This service is designed for organisations that already have an established media crew but need trusted access to the people, equipment, and technical oversight required to portray defence capability accurately and safely on screen.
We integrate discreetly into your production environment, supporting your chosen photographers, videographers, or agency teams while ensuring visual and operational authenticity throughout the shoot.
