From convention floors to resort campaigns, Brandefy handles Las Vegas video production for local businesses and the brands that come here to launch.
The city runs on hospitality, conventions, entertainment, and gaming. Each one puts video to a different use.
Hotels, restaurants, and venues sell an experience the guest has not had yet. Brand films and short social cuts show the room, the table, and the view.
Las Vegas hosts some of the country’s largest trade shows. Exhibitors need booth loops, product demos, and a recap to send out once the show closes.
Shows, residencies, and festivals compete for the same visitors. A sizzle reel or trailer gives people a reason to buy the ticket.
Casinos, sportsbooks, and online gaming brands advertise under strict rules. A spot has to entertain and still pass compliance review.
With pro football, hockey, and basketball teams and a Formula 1 race in town, teams and sponsors want social content around every event.
Home builders, clinics, law firms, and tech companies away from the tourist corridor use customer testimonials to win people who live here.
Brandefy’s Las Vegas office is on South Las Vegas Boulevard, south of the Strip. We have been producing video since 2011, with more than 3,000 projects delivered for over 500 clients.
We take each project from concept and script through the shoot, the edit, and any animation, so you are not left coordinating separate vendors.
A gaming commercial, an event sizzle, and a pitch reel, chosen because gaming, live events, and entertainment are so much of what this city does.

“Working with Brandefy was a game-changer. Their long-form videos drove a 54% higher CTR and 47% higher completion rate than our in-house videos, with YouTube conversions 44% cheaper.”
“Brandefy’s sizzle made me look like a rock star. 1st runner up—and the show was optioned. They’re my secret weapon.”
“They exceeded expectations. The videos helped us build a presence in 55 countries and drove strong growth across social, email, and web.”
Most of what visitors call Las Vegas is outside the City of Las Vegas, and much of the Strip is private property. Both facts shape a location plan.
South of Sahara Avenue, which takes in most of the Strip, is unincorporated Clark County. North of it, including Downtown, is the City of Las Vegas. Each issues its own film permit.
Clark County wants film permit applications at least 10 calendar days before the first day of filming, along with $1 million in liability insurance.
Many sidewalks along the Strip belong to the hotels beside them, and casino floors are private. Filming there needs the property’s permission.
Red Rock Canyon is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Lake Mead by the National Park Service. Valley of Fire is a state park. Each has to be contacted separately about filming.
Daytime highs sit above 100 degrees for most of the summer and can pass 110 in July. Exterior work moves to early morning and dusk, with shade for people and gear.
Hotel rates and crew availability follow the convention calendar. CES in January, the NAB Show in April, and SEMA and the Formula 1 race in November are among the busiest weeks.
The Strip sits in controlled airspace around Harry Reid International Airport, so flights need FAA approval ahead of time. Clark County does not allow drones in residential areas on permitted shoots.
State law requires productions to register with the Nevada Film Office, which is free. Nevada’s transferable tax credit starts at 15%, but only above $500,000 in in-state spending, a threshold most single-video projects do not reach.
Sources: Clark County film permit FAQ, City of Las Vegas film permits, and the Nevada Film Office. We check current requirements before every shoot.
Brandefy’s full-service projects begin at roughly $5,000 for a single video and go to $100,000 or more for multi-day productions or heavy animation. Crew size, shoot days, talent, locations, and animation are what move the number. We quote each project after a first conversation.
For a simple video, 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff to delivery. Most projects take 4 to 6 weeks, and campaigns run 12 or more. If the shoot needs a Clark County film permit, the application has to be in at least 10 calendar days before filming.
At 6543 South Las Vegas Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89119, south of the Strip. Brandefy started in 2011 and has its headquarters in Santa Monica, California.
It depends on where you are standing. The Strip south of Sahara Avenue is in unincorporated Clark County, so the county film permit office handles it. North of Sahara, including Downtown, falls under the City of Las Vegas. We sort out the jurisdiction for each location during pre-production.
Yes, when the property agrees. Casino floors, hotel interiors, and many of the sidewalks in front of them are private property, so the resort decides whether and when filming can happen. Each property sets its own conditions, which is why we contact them early.
Yes. Event videos, booth footage, interviews, and recap reels are among the formats we produce. Each venue and show organizer decides what outside crews may do on the floor, so the earlier we know which show and which booth, the better.
Early and late. Summer highs run above 100 degrees and can pass 110, so exterior scenes are scheduled around sunrise and the last hour of light. Midday goes to interiors, and we plan shade, water, and cooling for people and equipment.
Only with FAA approval. The resort corridor is inside controlled airspace around Harry Reid International Airport, and a licensed Part 107 pilot has to obtain authorization before flying. Clark County also bars drones in residential areas on permitted shoots.
National and regional commercials are eligible for the state’s transferable tax credit, which starts at 15% of qualified Nevada costs. The production has to spend more than $500,000 in Nevada and at least 60% of its total budget in the state, so the credit mainly fits large campaigns.
