Produced by Audience Productions, the Dunlop How-To Tile series is a 10-part instructional video collection that walks through each stage of tiling a bathroom. In this popular episode, we focus on waterproofing – a crucial step in preparing a wet area before tiling.
The series was shot alongside the Ardex How-To Tile videos over 8 intense production days. Each brand had its own side of the bathroom module, with dedicated shooting for both long-form videos and short-form promotional edits tailored for social platforms.
We captured the footage using multiple cameras, GoPros for unique angles and additional edits to support digital and retail marketing efforts. We also created a series of cinemagraphs, subtly animated stills that give product moments life on platforms like Instagram and Facebook.
This waterproofing episode has become one of Dunlop’s most viewed how-to videos, with close to 20K views on YouTube. It provides essential, step-by-step guidance using Dunlop’s trusted waterproofing membranes and application tools.
Working with Ashleigh from Audience Productions on the Dunlop how-to tile series was a great experience.
Right from the start, he understood exactly what we were trying to achieve and turned some pretty technical ideas into simple, clear and engaging content.
His attention to detail in the edit was impressive and the flow of each video just made sense. Ashleigh was open to feedback throughout and genuinely used it to improve things as we went.
He was clear in his communication, flexible on set and tackled every challenge without fuss. It made the whole process feel easy and collaborative.
If you're after professional how-to content that’s not just informative but also enjoyable to watch, this series is a great example of what Audience Productions can deliver.
