Bransford MediaThe work behind this page
A build takes a year and nobody watches a year. A time-lapse turns it into ninety seconds, which is the only form in which an owner, a prospective client, or a recruit ever sees the whole thing.
We shoot jobsite time-lapse, project films, and company events for Montana contractors. That includes the parts that are harder than they sound: a camera that survives a Montana winter on site, and footage that clears whatever the project owner will and will not allow published.
Dick Anderson Construction's federal aviation facility build for the National Guard and Haselden's Montana leadership gathering in Bozeman are both below.
Questions we get
As long as the build. The practical constraints are power, mounting, and weather, all of which get settled before the first frame rather than discovered halfway through.
That is normal on public work and it gets handled up front. On the Dick Anderson build the State of Montana owned the project, so what could be shown publicly was agreed before anything shipped.
Recruiting, mostly. A contractor competing for crews is competing on what the work looks like, and a build film does that better than a job posting.
