But with all this clutter, who are the top companies to go to? Well, to make life a little easier, I’ve made a list via Listly. But why did I …
Project Management – Mavenlink
From July last year we were making in between 5 and 6 explainer videos per week. This was us working at our maximum capacity. Tess was writing like a maniac, I was shooting and editing like maniac and Ailsa will illustrating like a maniac. I don’t know how we all coped. We got to September and we finally decided that …
Web Advert
Sometimes a client comes along that totally trusts you. It’s a nice feeling. In this case, it was Daniel from Custom Mobile Apps in Australia. We’d never met, never even spoken before but he trusted us to make an advert for a new App. That’s what I love about my job. It allows Ailsa and I to ‘meet’ and work …
The Green Mile
We’re always told about being green these days. Which is great. But to be perfectly honest, I don’t really think about it. I recycle everything that can be recycled and I’m very frugal with our heating system. But that’s about it. That is until I read an article about how we can all be a bit more green. It got …
Startup Business Offer
The Cuillin Collective have been on the go for a good number of years. Both Ailsa and I have proudly built it up from scratch. But building a business can be a terrible strain.

There are many varied ways of meeting the needs …

As home of the explainer video, we believe and promote the values of having an explainer video on your site. The price of explainer videos varies massively, but regardless …
Writing An Explanation Video
The process of writing a script is one of the most important parts of creating an explanation video. Now of course the voice over, illustrations, shooting and editing all come together to create a high-quality explanation video, but it is the script that will capture the attention of your viewers. The purpose of the video is to communicate your product or …
The Year Of The Explanation Video
We honestly believe that 2013 is the year of the explanation video – the year that they reach their peak. Since we started The Cuillin Collective, we’ve seen their popularity rise a huge amount. We’ve also seen the companies that make them rise too, there is more competition now than ever before, which is a great thing. It’s good for …
