Commercial video production for Kitchener-Waterloo

Kitchener was called Berlin until 1916, a reminder of the German-speaking settlers who shaped the area, and it developed as a manufacturing town. Waterloo, just to the north, grew around insurance, then its universities and the technology companies that followed. Today the boundary between them is easy to cross without noticing.

For advertisers, the hyphen still matters. A business in Uptown Waterloo and one in Downtown Kitchener may share customers yet speak to them differently. We ask early which side of the line you are on, who you serve across the Region, and whether Cambridge or the townships belong in the message.

Since 2019 the ION light rail has connected Conestoga in the north of Waterloo with Fairview Park in the south of Kitchener, passing both downtowns and the University of Waterloo. It has become a practical shorthand for location, and new housing and offices have grown up near its stations.

Our films use that kind of local reference only when it is accurate for you and built from material you can share. We never generate a station, a streetscape or a landmark and present it as filmed. Local scenery appears from your rights-cleared photos or as a clearly labelled creative mood.

Notlith has no office or crew in Waterloo Region and does not claim one. Interviews with founders, a team at work, a live event or a production line running at speed need a real camera, and a local videographer is the sensible hire for that.

We can still write the script, plan what the crew should capture and edit their footage together with our sequences. English and Canadian French versions can be prepared from the same master for clients who sell beyond Ontario.
