Case Study: Ligeti Partners – Recruitment Video & Photography Project
Background
Ligeti Partners is a respected insurance litigation law firm with more than 40 years of experience. With a strong reputation in the industry, the firm wanted to highlight its people, culture, and client-focused approach to attract the next generation of talent.
After finding Dream Engine online and reviewing our past videos for legal firms in Melbourne, Ligeti Partners reached out with a clear brief: create a suite of videos and photography that would make the firm stand out to both graduates and clients.
The Requirements
The project needed to serve multiple audiences and goals. Deliverables included:
- 20 professional headshots of senior leaders
- Candid photography to bring authenticity to their website and social media
- Introduction video explaining who they are and what they do
- Onboarding video welcoming new clients and explaining the process
- Recruitment video designed to attract top graduates in a competitive Melbourne legal market
The Opportunity
Ligeti Partners saw the opportunity to go beyond a single recruitment piece. By investing in video and photography, they could create a consistent bank of content that spoke to potential hires, new clients, and professional peers.
This was about showing the human side of a high-performing law firm.
Our Approach
We designed a production plan that balanced professionalism with culture. Key elements included:
- Interviews with senior leaders and staff sharing what makes Ligeti Partners distinctive
- Office and team footage capturing collaboration, energy, and the working environment
- Motion graphics and titles aligned with the firm’s brand identity
- Professional photography to replace stock imagery and show the real people behind the firm
- Carefully selected background music to add polish and warmth
Filming day became a genuine team moment. Staff stepped out from behind their desks, shared their stories on camera, and enjoyed the experience of creating new professional portraits.
The Results
The finished content now forms the backbone of Ligeti Partners’ digital presence:
- The recruitment video showcases the firm’s culture and career opportunities, giving graduates a clear sense of what it’s like to work there
- Headshots and candid photography modernise the website and bring personality to online profiles
- The onboarding video saves time for partners by welcoming new clients and explaining the process consistently
- The introduction video gives prospective clients and recruits a strong first impression of the firm’s values and capabilities
For law firms and professional services businesses looking for a recruitment video in Melbourne, Ligeti Partners is a clear example of how video can capture culture, attract talent, and build stronger connections with clients.
By partnering with Dream Engine, Ligeti Partners gained more than a set of videos. They built a library of authentic, future-focused content that will support the firm for years to come.
