Videography.
Photography.
Creative content.

A purpose-led video and photography production team in Melbourne/Naarm.

We love putting our energy into positive change. Which is why our clients include environmental giants, social change-makers, outdoor adventurists and small businesses with big things to say.

Over the years we’ve delivered scroll-stopping content, brand stories, hard hitting interviews… and we’ve gone viral more than once.

The Second Breakfast team has years of commercial shooting experience, a strategic agency background and dollops of creative flair. And according to Google reviews, we’re a bloody nice crew to have around too.

Oh, and if you’re wondering about the name: it was halfway into a gruelling bikepacking trip that Dan leaned into his handlebars and warned:

“There’s some pretty tough terrain ahead.
We’re gunna need a second breakfast.”

And we knew that was it. If you want to make meaningful change then you need to fuel up. And we’ve built up quite an appetite.

  • Izzy Watts - Director

    Production Lead / Photography Lead

    Izzy has produced commercials and content for some of the biggest brands in Australia and was once the Content Lead for Australia’s largest humanitarian organisation - filming, directing, editing and producing campaigns and video content. And she’s a bloody talented photographer too. Jeez, some people.

    When she’s not got her camera in hand you can find her facilitating women’s groups, fostering dogs and planning her next outdoor adventure. And her infectious laugh means you’ll never have trouble finding her on set.

  • Dan Crowley - Creative Director

    Video Content Lead

    Dan has been in the engine room of video production and marketing agencies for over a decade — delivering content, campaigns and strategies for global change-makers, challenger brands and some of Australia’s biggest businesses.

    The second founding half of Second Breakfast, Dan’s a seasoned visual storyteller, marketer and published creative writer — so you can count on him to find the angle to elevate your project and take the creative to the next level. Pastry connoisseur, history podcast nerd and heavy music lover.

  • Alex Indigo - Intelligence Lead

    Process Specialist

    Alex has been a core part of the team since early 2023 — and it seems as though she’s mastering new tasks each week. She never takes a day off, doesn’t require food and is awake 24/7. But I guess that’s the beauty of Artificial Intelligence.

    Alex is our AI Assistant — lover of menial tasks and a time-saving specialist for Second Breakfast. Which means we get to spend more time on the human stuff: storytelling, strategy and creative development. Part Executive Assistant, part creative, part Account Manager… and probably future boss. So be nice!

Let’s do this

Got a full brief ready to go? Sounds good! Got a business goal but struggling to know where to start? All good, we’ve got you too.

Production doesn’t have to be intimidating. And when done right it can be pretty fun too. We’ve been in the game long enough to make this process simple, effective and enjoyable.

We’re collaborators and we listen closely. Because who knows your business more than you? No inflated egos, just healthy discussion. Our goal is getting you results, however we get there. We’ll ask the tough questions up front, get a deep understanding of what you’re wanting to achieve, and then run a slick process end to end.

You'll look great, we'll make it look easy.

Our process

  • You get in touch with your initial ideas or a fleshed out brief. We digest and come back with a ballpark quote to get things off the ground - and avoid any hidden surprises

  • Our team sits down with yours to dig deeper into the detail. You tell us about what’s happening in your world and why that’s important.

    We come away with a deep understanding of your challenges, goals and expectations. The quote is finessed and finalised.

  • Using all we’ve learned, scripts are written, interview questions are shaped and the creative storyboard is developed.

    Every ‘where’, ‘when’, ‘why’ and ‘how’ is answered ahead of the shoot day so things can run like clockwork.

    Permits are applied for, gear is packed and the crew is ready to hit the ground running.

  • The big day is here. Lights are set up, interviews are filmed, photos are snapped, snacks are shared.

  • We tuck ourselves into the edit suite to craft the story you’ve been itching to tell. We work closely with you through two comprehensive rounds of feedback to create that perfect final cut.

    Now all you need to do is share your story with the world.
