Who’s coming to your house
Hi, I’m Ben.
I’m a dad from Stourbridge and I make films for a living through my company Vidnora.
When I was little my dad filmed Santa’s visit for me, my brother and my sister on an old tape camcorder. Since 2020 I’ve done the same for my daughter. Six Christmases on, running down the stairs to watch it is still her favourite part of the morning.
Now I’d love to do the same for your family.
- Enhanced DBS check
- Public liability insurance
Your children are never filmed
Every visit happens while they sleep and I only ever film downstairs.
A parent stays close by
You let me in and keep watch from the stairs or landing, so little ones stay upstairs.
Only ever me
I’m the only person who visits. No crew and no strangers in your home.

Questions
Everything parents ask me.
What if my child wakes up?
It happens, which is why I ask you to stay on the stairs or landing while I film. You’re right there to settle them back to sleep and make sure they don’t come downstairs, and I carry on quietly below. Your child is never filmed.
Do you film my children?
No, never. The whole visit happens while they’re asleep. I don’t even need their names.
Can I stay and watch?
Of course. The stairs or landing is the best spot, as you can see what I’m doing and keep the little ones upstairs at the same time. If two adults are home, one of you is welcome to stay downstairs with me, just out of shot.
How do you get in without waking anyone?
I send you a text when I’m about five minutes away. You open the door quietly and I come straight in. Shoes off, lights low and no doorbell. Then you stay close by on the stairs or landing, so if anyone stirs you can settle them before they come down. I only need about 20 minutes inside, and I leave the room just as I found it. Then I spend another 10 to 15 minutes filming outside the house.
When do I get the film?
Once the balance is paid I start editing straight away. Your film arrives by email always before Christmas and usually within 48 hours.
How does payment work?
You pay a £50 deposit when you book and your card is saved securely by Stripe. After your visit the balance is charged to the same card and I start editing.
Can I cancel or move my booking?
You can move your booking once for free to any other open slot. The £50 deposit isn’t refundable. If I ever have to cancel because of illness or snow I’ll offer you another night first, and a full refund if none of them work.
Can we share it on social media?
Yes please! All the music is properly licensed so you can post it anywhere. You get a vertical version made for phones too.
Who is Santa?
Santa is a very busy man in December so he has a little help around Stourbridge. All I can say is that he’s local, has excellent boots and never says no to a mince pie.
This Christmas, give them proof.
Only a handful of nights this December, from £190. Check if Santa can come to your house.
