How Offscript
came about.
It didn't start with a business plan. It started with a camera. Ridge was in front of the lens, Ahmad behind it. Both felt that content for Swiss businesses could look better than what was showing up in the feed.
The name came quickly. Offscript means the best stuff happens once nobody's looking at the script anymore. When the chef talks about her dish instead of reciting ad copy. When the estate agent shows the crack in the wall instead of retouching it away. That's exactly where you get the footage people watch to the end.
Our first shoots for restaurants in Zurich turned into a process, and the process turned into a team. Today we work with fixed monthly packages: one shoot day on location, one month of content. No back and forth between suppliers, one point of contact, everything under one roof. Concept, camera, editing and publishing.
We stopped shooting only in Zurich a long time ago. Today we also work in Winterthur, Zug, Lucerne and Basel. Wherever businesses realise that one good video does more than three ads.
