Why You Need a Product Photography Production Company?
360Refinery brings you a reliable photography management system that allows you to get consistent quality product photos and videos with quick turnaround at reasonable and transparent prices.
Benefits of Using a Production Company?
- access to larger pool of talents. As a production management company, we at 360 Refinery know lots of talent (majority of whom don't speak any English but are excellent professionals), and we also know the strengths and weaknesses of each photographer, which helps us decide who is best for each specific project. It is extremely rare that one photographer is good at shooting all sort of products. It would take you ages to gather the information we already have.
- feel confident about getting the results you need. Photo and video production, like anything else requires expertise to get great results. Unless you are very experienced, you may be able to brief the photographer in a way that is needed to produce the images you want. With us, once you give us the requirements, we will break things down and make sure the photographer or videographer knows step by step what they need to do, and also that no corners are cut on things like post-production.
- save time on management. We spend a lot of time fine-tuning our booking and briefing processes, so that once a client books a project with us, the client has very little to worry about until the final delivery of the photos. There are many layers of management to producing great photos and videos. Most clients don't need to spend time learning about production management. You could spend the time managing your business and increasing your profits.
- leverage to save cost. Unless you do photoshoots very frequently, photographers may not be willing to spend the necessary effort to complete your project well or the price for doing this will be quite high. This happens because photographers want to spend more time and effort on their repeat clients who guarantee a consistent income flow. 360 Refinery is a repeat client for many photographers, and all our clients enjoy the benefits of the long-tern relationships we have with the product photographers we wonk with. Thanks to these relationships, we are able to get a very competitive pricing to quality ratio and pass these savings on to our clients.
Our expertise is in producing premium quality product and lifestyle images for companies who are committed to building strong brands. Whether you need photoshoots occasionally, or you launch products on a weekly basis, we are here to support you and help you get everything on schedule.
Our Story
360Refinery is a photography and video production company with offices and studios in China and Europe. We specialize in imagery production for ecommerce.
360Refinery started out as a small independent photo studio in Shanghai in 2009. Today we have a network of 300+ excellent product photographers and retouch artists, with the ability to complete product photography projects across China and Eastern Europe. We know lighting, we know production management, and we know online marketing. This is the perfect mix for creating stunning photos that sell products at a reasonable cost.
We are on a mission to make photo purchasing as quick and easy as ordering pizza online and to elevate the experience of managing photoshoots to the standards and user-friendliness of ecommerce. While traditionally production management is mostly associated with 4A Agencies and freelancers/ small studios don't really have clear and efficient processes for managing production, our belief is that efficient production greatly decreases the time needed to complete the project and also leads to better results. We work continuously to streamline the photography production process in order to help online businesses get better results for less in a very competitive ecommerce environment.
Whether your manufacturer is in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Yiwu, Ningbo, Turkey, Romania, or elsewhere, we have professional product photographers in China and Eastern Europe ready to complete your projects. In China we also have extensive studio sets such as bedroom sets, bathroom sets, living room sets that can be used to create stunning lifestyle photos.
Over the years we have had the pleasure of working with SMEs, large companies, start-ups that grew into multinational companies, and many marketplace sellers . We have seen time and again that companies who consistently invest in quality photography and standardize product launch work-flows grow much faster, because they understand that the cost of photos is not the price you pay for the service, it is the impact these photos have on the conversion rate of your marketing campaigns.
Visual presentation can make the difference between making a sale and losing a customer. A large part of selling is capturing the attention of your potential buyer, but the key part is keeping that attention and building trust. Especially when selling online, you only have a very limited amount of time to achieve that, many customers make decisions based on the imagery and other branding symbols within a few seconds, and those few seconds are crucial for you marketing campaigns' ROI.
360Refinery is here to help your brands grow and become more established. Great photography matters.
