About
Genuine connection is still the whole job.
In an ever-evolving world, the art of forging genuine connections remains timeless. A strong social presence is a carefully curated storefront on 5th Ave — it should show the world you mean business.
Who we are
A creative team of film makers, script writers and pilots.
Content First is a Dubai-based production house shooting photo, video and drone across the UAE. We work with brands that need constant content and with clients who need one film done properly — company profiles, events, F&B, corporate interviews, sports coverage and aerial.
We are a production house first. That order matters: strategy is useful, but only if someone can actually shoot the thing — and having the aerial unit in-house means the drone plates and the ground footage were planned together, not stitched together afterwards.
Founder
Jack Bishop
Jack has been flying RC aircraft for 21 years and started in drone filming when the industry was still in its infancy. He has since flown for some of the largest productions in the world — Hollywood features, British television and Bollywood — shot both in the UK and now from his home in Dubai.
That experience has led to Aerial DP roles in recent years: planning and consulting on shots rather than only flying them. Six years shooting in Dubai has also made him well versed in the permitting process, which is most of the battle here. He still enjoys getting behind the sticks of both stabilised drones and FPV.
How we think
Three things we believe about content.
Constant beats occasional
Sustained effort to engage your audience is paramount to digital success. One good film a year does very little.
Add something, don’t just post
Every project is a collaboration aimed at building your brand, telling a story and adding value to your following.
The details people can’t name
Audio, colour, pacing, a clean aerial plate. Nobody compliments them — everybody notices when they’re missing.
Say hello
Let’s grab a coffee.
We’ll learn about you, your target audience and the message you want to communicate — and put a plan together from there.
