Most restaurants grow into the Brand Film once their feed is consistent. There’s no rush — it’s the milestone, not the entry point.

THE FOOTAGE IS THE ASSET.
THE WEBSITE IS WHERE IT PAYS YOU BACK.

One eye. One vendor. We shoot the restaurant, then build the site the footage lives on.

Recommended

One-Page Site

from $800

A one-time website build around your shoot: hero video, dish gallery, menu, hours, reservations. About a 14-day build, not rushable, and not a subscription. Up to 3 revisions after the functional draft.

Site Care

$150 or $300/mo

The ongoing monthly piece: updates that keep your site fresh after it's built. $150/mo includes 1 revision, $300/mo up to 3. This is the only website piece that's monthly.

One-time build · no plan required

The One-Page Site, standalone

A one-time website build around your shoot: hero video, dish gallery, menu, hours, reservations. Simple $800 or advanced $1,200. About a 14-day build, and it can’t be rushed. This is a one-time build, not a subscription, with up to 3 revisions after the functional draft. Ongoing Site Care is a separate monthly option.

Production extras

Paid Ads & Google Maps

$300/mo

We reformat your content into Meta and Google ad cuts and Maps-ready formats. The $300 is our management fee; you pay the ad platforms directly from your own account. Flat rate, any tier.

Rush Delivery

$200–600 one-time

48-hour turnaround instead of the standard 5 to 7 days. Added here at signup it scales with your tier: $200 on Taste, 20% of base on Signature and Strategy. Already on a plan? Add a rush to a single shoot later for a flat $200. Rush applies to shoots, not website builds.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Taste is 2 hours, 6 dishes or cocktails, one mini montage (30-45 sec) and clips, perfect for keeping a steady feed alive. Signature is not just more of that. At 3-4 hours and 12 dishes it adds what Taste never gets at all: ambiance and culture footage, a seasonal/activation montage, light creative direction, and coverage built for every platform. Taste keeps you consistent. Signature builds a brand.
Starter is a one-time booking with no monthly commitment, though it is covered by our standard Service Agreement like every booking. Taste, Signature, and Strategy require a 3-month minimum, but you get locked rates and priority scheduling. Extend to 6 or 12 months for additional discounts (8% and 15% off respectively) plus seasonal campaign planning.
Strategy runs on a quarterly rhythm with monthly shoots, so the best time to start is at the top of a quarter. Each month's shoot needs about a week's lead time; the quarterly strategy session that produces your 90-day roadmap is planned a little further ahead. Taste and Signature can be scheduled on a tighter turnaround.
Starter: 5 business days. Taste: 7 business days. Signature: 7 business days. Brand Film: 10–14 business days including pre-production and post.
We prefer shooting just before service or during prep for the cleanest results. For the Brand Film we book a dedicated full day and work around your schedule.
Yes. Most clients book Starter first to see the quality, then move to Taste or Signature for ongoing monthly content. The Brand Film can be added at any point as a standalone project.
Agencies charge $8,000 and up for work at this level, often billing a photographer, videographer, and editor separately. A Matosem Studios brand film starts at $4,499, with a full graded footage library, commercial usage rights, and a distribution strategy included. One catering booking usually covers the cost.
Posting and scheduling is available as an add-on to any package for an extra 20% per month. We publish everything for you, captions and hooks included, so you stay consistent without lifting a finger. Just let us know and we'll add it on.
You can add any of these to a package, a few one-time and a few monthly. Posting & Scheduling (+20%/mo): we publish your content for you, captions and hooks included. Paid Ads & Google Maps ($300/mo): we reformat your content into ad cuts and Maps-ready formats; the $300 is our management fee, and you pay Meta and Google directly from your own account. Rush Delivery: a 48-hour turnaround instead of the usual 5 to 7 days. Added at signup it scales with your tier ($200 on Taste, 20% of your base on Signature and Strategy); if you're already on a plan and want a rush on a single shoot later, it's a flat $200 per shoot. Rush applies to shoots, not website builds. One-Page Site ($800 simple, $1,200 advanced): a one-time website build, about 14 days, not a subscription and not rushable, with up to 3 revisions after the functional draft. Site Care ($150 or $300/mo): the ongoing monthly piece that keeps your site fresh, with 1 revision on the $150 tier or up to 3 on the $300 tier.
Signature delivers a strong monthly volume of dish, cocktail, and montage content, plus ambiance and light creative direction. Strategy keeps that same monthly shoot coverage and adds the thinking: a quarterly strategy session that produces a written 90-day content roadmap, one deeply researched hero piece each quarter, lighter monthly check-ins, and a quarterly performance review. It's your fractional content director.
A hero piece is researched and intentional. We study your audience, your location, what's trending, the visual style, and even the music, then build something designed to stand out, not just fill the feed. It takes real production work, which is why Strategy includes one deeply researched hero piece per quarter and builds it to be remembered.
Because a deeply researched, deliberately crafted piece takes time: audience research, location scouting, trend and music work, and a real production plan. Anchoring the hero piece to a quarter protects that depth and our delivery capacity. You still get full monthly shoot coverage and a 90-day roadmap; the hero piece is the quarterly centerpiece everything else builds toward.
