terms of business

About these terms

mtb studios is a trading name of Vengros Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 15053980), registered office Suite 1.17, Bonded Warehouse, Lower Byrom Street, Manchester M3 4AP.

These terms explain how we work and apply to our video production services and to your use of this website. Studio bookings have their own studio hire terms. For each production project we also agree a signed service agreement and a statement of work. If anything in those differs from this page, the signed documents apply.

Video production projects

We provide video production and related services, including filming, editing, scriptwriting, voiceovers, social media content, event coverage, drone footage, promotional videos, interviews, and short documentaries.

The scope, deliverables, timings, and fee for each project are set out in a statement of work, which we agree with you before any work starts. Our package prices on this website are starting points, and every project is confirmed in writing.

Fees and payment

• A 50% deposit is due when the statement of work is signed, to secure your booking and before any work begins.
• The remaining 50% is due once you've approved the final deliverables, and before the final files or footage are released.
• We accept payment by bank transfer.
• Agreed expenses, such as travel, accommodation, or licensing, are set out in the statement of work or approved by you in advance, and billed separately.
• We may charge interest on overdue invoices, as set out in your service agreement.

Ownership and usage

• Once we've received payment in full, you own the rights to the final, exported videos we deliver.
• We keep ownership of the raw footage, project files, and production tools, unless we agree in writing to hand them over. This may carry an extra fee, such as our raw footage add-on.
• Third-party assets, such as licensed music or stock footage, are used under licence for your project only.
• We may show finished work in our portfolio, showreel, website, and social media. If you'd rather we didn't, just tell us in writing.
• You confirm that you have the rights to any materials you give us to use, such as logos, music, or footage.

Confidentiality

We both keep each other's non-public and sensitive information confidential, during the project and for 2 years after it ends. We won't share your content with third parties without your written permission, other than the portfolio use described above.

Liability

We carry out every project with reasonable skill and care. Our total liability for any project is limited to the fee paid for it, and we're not liable for indirect or consequential losses. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.

You agree to cover us against third-party claims arising from materials you provide, or from how the finished work is used.

Changes and cancellation

• Changes to an agreed project need to be confirmed in writing by both of us.
• Either of us can end a project with 14 days' written notice, or straight away if the other seriously breaches the agreement or becomes insolvent.
• If a project ends early, you pay for the work completed up to that point. Deposits are non-refundable unless we agree otherwise.

Using this website

• The content on this website, including our videos, images, and text, belongs to mtb studios or our clients and partners, and may not be copied or reused without permission.
• We work to keep the information here accurate and up to date, but prices and availability can change. Your quote or booking confirmation is what applies.
• Links to other websites are provided for convenience. We're not responsible for their content.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If a disagreement comes up, we'll first try to resolve it by talking, then through mediation, and only then through the courts of England and Wales.
