Bay Area crews. Nationwide reach.
One producer who knows your brand.
The Bay Area is a hard place to shoot. Parking is a negotiation, permits take longer than you'd expect, and half the shoots people call "San Francisco" are actually in Palo Alto, Mountain View, or San Jose, an hour apart on a bad traffic day.
We've been staffing crews here for years. That means a producer who knows to build campus badging into the schedule, who's dealt with SFFC permits before, and who'll tell you honestly whether your two-location day is realistic. And when the next shoot is in Austin or Boston, nothing about that changes.
Lightswitch is Less agency - more the team agencies rely on.
We're your video department
Not every production warrants the full agency brief - Lightswitch is your partner for mid-funnel content that keeps the enterprise moving like:
- Testimonials
- Social content
- Town halls, conferences
- Webinars
- OTT, CTV, and Paid Ads
- Behind the scenes, mission-critical content
We help you outperform your weight class - Our producers work closely with you to determine the best types of video content and channels to reach your ideal customer. We then tailor your message, approach, and style so that content speaks directly to your target.
You don't need a global publicly traded ad agency to turn out high quality work that performs - you just need a partner your marketing team can rely on.
Your video needs fluctuate throughout the year, you have to cover a lot of territory, and stakeholders always want things done yesterday. Lightswitch works as an extension of your team for all things video. We give your team:
- Dedicated Producer - Every team gets a steady point of contact who knows your brand guidelines, approval paths, and file systems. No retraining. No hand-holding.
- Brand Security - our producers are your brand's bodyguard, communicating and protecting your brand at every step in the process.
- Elastic Capacity - Need half a producer for a month? A sudden surge of edits for a week? We flex up and down instantly to match your workload.
- Global coverage - Access vetted crews in over 50 countries. From client testimonials in Tokyo to event coverage in Texas, we put boots on the ground without you getting on a plane.
- Broad capabilities - writers, storyboard artists, on-location crews, editors, sound designers, motion graphic artists and animators - your producer pulls in the right creative for you, when you need them.
- Predictable Pricing - No surprise overages. Whether it’s a single shoot or a year-long retainer, our pricing is transparent and designed for scale.
We would love to work with you on your next project - reach out for a free consultation anytime.

When we say “planning,” we’re not talking about a checklist. We mean internal alignment around expectations, stakeholders, and outcomes - before anything gets made.
Why We Believe in Producers
A producer is like a great event planner. They don’t bake the cake, arrange the flowers, or MC the event - but they do make sure all of those things happen, on time, within budget, and to spec.
