Corporate Video Production

Corporate video production is essentially video commissioned by businesses, companies and organisations for their own sales and marketing purposes. It includes advertising content designed for all digital channels such as websites, social media, sales meetings, exhibitions etc. If a picture paints a thousand words, just imagine what corporate video can do. You only need look on social media to recognise the power of media and its impact on business as we know it.

A corporate video should include 3 core essences.

A story – this will bring your audience on a journey and engage them from the start – the whole point!
Personality – businesses shouldn’t be afraid to showcase their personality and tone of voice. This helps build connection and trust as people will be able to answer – yes I wanna do business with this company.
Relatable content – for people to connect with the content it has to relatable – what’s in it for them? If they are spending time watching video what will they gain from it. Put yourself in your audiences shoes.

It very much depends on a few factors, the duration, how polished the production needs to be, and if it is a complex shoot that requires several crew members across several sites. Is it a one off video or as part of a campaign? Typically a short brand film campaign that’s of a good quality may range on average from £4,000 – £6,000.

Corporate video is important because the entire world connects through emotion. All products and services in some way shape or form are purchased on emotion. That’s true for businesses as well as consumers. The best way to convey emotion and to tell stories is either face to face or via video. Video is therefore a key digital communication that businesses cannot afford to do without, if they are serious about growth. The added benefits are that YouTube and Google – the two largest search engines, prefer video over any other type of content – it also get’s higher engagement.

A plethora of things are needed to create video, including a crew, equipment and any catering and expenses for overnight stay and travel. Most agencies will have these things in house but may need extra equipment and crew members depending on the shoot.

The case study video is focused on detailed storytelling through the eyes of the customer showcasing a project before and after. The marketing and promo video is all about creating a ‘movement’ and engagement in your brand. Themed around a topic this video should educate and inspire. Parody Marketing videos allow you not only a chance to represent your brand and product, but also to show you and your team in a different environment where the possibilities of creating a funny video are endless. Commercial training videos are an ideal tool for businesses looking to package and sell their own content and areas of expertise. To see a range of video production examples, visit our portfolio page.

Commercial video production is high end video that advertises a companies offering. An advertisement promoting that companies product, service or brand promise. These videos are often broadcast on TV or used in specific advertising slots distributed to a much larger audience. The main objective is brand awareness and building trust with the audience so they feel compelled to get in touch and see what that business has to offer.

The pre-production stage is where the video agency helps you plan and carve the identity of your video with storyboards, scripts and planning with yourselves. The production is the actual filming of your story, and post-production is the editing of footage to finish off your video to its finest potential. Visit our behind the scenes page to find out more.

Promotional videos directly advertise products and services. This content needs to be more than a sales pitch. Its important that promotional videos convey the features and benefits but also answer the audiences questions they may have. A good way to present a promotional video is in the form of an FAQs. What does your audience want to know about this product and why should they watch you’re video? What will they gain from it. Companies need to to think less about themselves and more about their audience so their content remains relatable.

This depends on the specific video project. Usually, we can have one or two camera operators on one job, with help of another crew member for lighting, producing and directing.

For more complex or larger filming requirements, we may recommend additional video crew members, such as extra camera operators, sound recordists, or drone operators.

A truly memorable film-style, animation quickly wins over the hearts and minds of its audience. It’s safe, it’s familiar and it’s clear – making it a genuine story-telling winner.

Creating a storyboard is a key aspect of 2D animation, this details how the story and message will come together. A graphic designer can then design the images required and the animator uses their skillset to bring these graphics to life by creating movements and transitions.

In comparison to video production, 2D video animation costs can at times be more cost effective as less resources are needed. An animator is needed to carry out the animation production which can be quite time consuming so time is to be considered in price. A graphic designer may also be required if your video contains bespoke graphics rather than stock. A voiceover artist may also be utilised to help tell the story. If you want to include a variety of different versions of your video in different languages, this should also be considered in the cost.

With our experience in 2D animation video and product animation, we can showcase business communications whatever their shape or size, using custom or stock graphics – or both – to transform your message into one which is simple but effective. Producing dynamic transitions in multiple styles, we’re a 2D animation company that creates animated videos for business with a real ‘wow’ factor: slick, sophisticated and stylish. 2D animated production has never looked so good!

2D animation is a great tool for standing out from the crowd. Animating a story allows you to do things you couldn’t manage with a live action video, which means animated video can be useful in showing the ins and outs of a product or explaining a health and safety video in a punchier and more engaging way.

The animated explainer video, details a product or service in a short, snappy and punchy way. 2D product animation, a type of video production is a great way to showcase your businesses products in a truly unique and creative way. This format is less in depth than 3D and is better suited to telling a story about the product itself. The 2D animated video production that teaches health and safety is educational, topical and information based.

The pre-production process includes planning, storyboarding and scripting. The production and post-production is mixed into one stage, where the development and editing of the animation is all in one.

Animation is a complicated method of filmmaking and very time consuming. However the results are worth every minute, which is why it is as prevalent today as it ever has been. Good animations are created by experienced motion graphics designers and 2D artists. Basic animations with simple moving text are easier to produce but these can often lack engagement as the scenes are more like a powerpoint presentation.

Yes, we will add a suitable music track if this is what you desire for the animation. We will pick a music track that sets the tone of the animation and intrigues the audience.

We have a fantastic large music library with all sorts of genres and moods, so we will find one to fit perfectly with your 2D animated video.

Yes, we can cater to your guidelines and match everything including style, font, colours and tone.

The difference between a 2D animation and a 3D animation is that a 2D animation only moves vertically and horizontally in its space, whereas an object designed using a 3D animation process can move through the depth of its background.

You will find that most 3D animation is produced through computer generation, while the majority of 2D animation is done in illustrated form.

3D Animation

At times your communication can be difficult to digest and requires more than a straight-forward piece of film or 2D animation to cut through the noise and engage your audience. 3D animated video is exactly what it says on the tin, an in depth, complex yet visually stunning way of demonstrating products, methods of safety and reconstruction videos. The three dimensional world of animation includes textures, lighting and camera movements to create an in depth immersive experience.

Creating a storyboard is a key aspect of 3D animation, this details how the story and message will come together. An animator will then start to build and model the environment, objects and set the lighting to create the three dimensional effect. The process involved and movement are then added last to create the moving sequence.

3D animation agencies will base their cost on a number of things like the duration of the video, the complexity of the animation and the modelling work involved. An animator is needed to carry out the animation production which can be quite time consuming so time is to be considered in price. A voiceover artist may also be utilised to help tell the story. If you want to include a variety of different versions of your video in different languages, this should also be considered in the cost.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. 3D animation may require modelling work for objects, people or environments. Depending on the level of detail required this can take time to produce which will lead to a higher cost. If this video is a longer duration too then it will cost more to produce than a shorter more basic 3D video.

3D animated video has the power to turn your business marketing and inhouse communications into something unique and even more engaging for your audiences due to it’s in-depth detail and special presentation.

3D animated explainer videos follow an educational theme, documenting the steps involved in a process. 3D product animation is designed to promote a new or existing product range. These types of animated videos are ideal to communicate specific features and benefits, to help build a high quality sales tool to drive it through to market. 3D animated reconstruction videos recount or re-enact an event or incident that took place the reconstruction video is a valuable piece of video content.

Health and Safety Videos

Health and safety video outlines the safe working practices and procedures on site. It can be for both workplaces and sites. It should welcome new employees and contractors and prepare them for their role so that that work safely. It’s a way of introducing people to the company and also the safety culture. A health and safety induction video should also highlight any risks and dangers on site and how to mitigate these. Health and safety videos you actually want to watch! Our truly memorable film-style and animations quickly wins over the hearts and minds of staff and contractors on site. It’s messaging that’s simple, effective and interesting to watch.

With our experience in producing health and safety communications, we can engage your staff and contractors in various health & safety video messages. Covering key topics from process safety, to life saving rules, working at height, confined spaces, driving safety and so on – custom health and safety videos will transform your message into one which is simple but effective. Producing dynamic safety messages in various styles, we create animations and films that take your health and safety communications to the next level. Health & safety video production has never looked so good! Our BBC background ensures a high-quality broadcast experience on every project, working in sync with your company goals and strategy, shaping your campaign through video content that’s within your budget and delivers results.

Visit our behind the scenes page to find out what goes into a video production.

This is all very dependent on what type of video you want. Do you want a video production, a 2D or 3D animated training video? All three forms are well suited to safety videos but cost can vary depending on what you want and what methods may be best for what you want to say.

Health and safety induction video is so important as it integrates new employees into the company. It’s important so that they can quickly understand the new systems and procedures and it gives them a senses of belonging. It’s also important for the business to communicate key information and ensure their new staff and contractors get their questions answered. This will ensure the business is compliant and that staff stay within the business for the months and years to come. Good inductions can be delivered via video training, or in face to face or group settings.

Site safety induction and training videos are used for sites when they want to detail key bits of information for staff, contractors and visitors attending a site. 2D animated content for health and safety video topics such as confined spaces, working at height and life saving rules refreshes and brings very important messaging to life. Information presented in this style is simple but very effective.

A health and safety induction should include a number of different things. Firstly it should outline all the key information that is detailed within the companies Health and Safety policy. This might include things such as Accident reporting, fire evacuation procedures, First aid arrangements, key welfare locations, Prohibited areas, site safety rules and potential risks and hazards on site

Health and Safety videos can be just as effective in any video format, some need to be told in certain ways to make their messaging get across properly to the audience. For example live action may work better for accident reconstruction or communicating a first account of something. Site safety induction videos can be produced in animation and live action filming. Topics that are complex to understand may benefit from being broken down into smaller bitesize topics communicated possibly through animation.

Video itself is a very engaging way of getting health and safety information across than reading materials or powerpoint presentations. In animation for example, the use of colour and characters can appeal to your audience’s senses more positively and hook them in. Using people in the film too can create content that is relatable and personable to that site or company which often creates much higher levels of engagement than written material with no story.

There are many ways to promote a safety culture at work. Training is an obvious one. Rewarding people for safe behaviours. Using safety champions to filter messages & build a safety culture. Video tools including interactive video. Posters and signage. Staff intranet. Tool box talk meetings. Encourage feedback and discussion. Workplace risk assessments. Investigating accidents an incidents looking at root causes. The key thing that connects everything is good communication, that’s clear, simple and easy to understand.

Safety videos are becoming more and more popular for companies to use as video communications become more and more relevant, especially in the case of evolving health and safety communications.

Site safety rules are the key important steps that staff and contractors MUST pay attention to and follow whilst on site. They should be simple, clear and easy to understand and communicated to everyone attending site. Site safety rules videos and posters are a great way to capture people’s attention and engage them in the safety messages. The details of the rules should be communicated in inductions, safety talks and meetings.

Drone Videography and Aerial Filming

Drone videography is the use of a drone camera to capture large landscapes and cityscapes from a birds eye view position. Can you imagine a world where you can film anything without access being a restriction? It’s here and it’s real in the form of drone technology, allowing cameras to go above and beyond what was once possible to produce imagery that is breath-taking.

The shoot is relatively simple, a pilot will check and survey the area first to ensure there are no restrictions in place. Once they arrive on site they will have a plan about where they intend to fly. Once in flight, which normally lasts 12-15 minutes they will conduct the shot and film the shots required. Depending on the length and logistics, the turnaround time can be relatively quick for edits.

Drone film can vary in price depending on what you are after, are you wanting footage or just photos, for example. However in comparison to our other video production services, drone filming is cheaper to do. Most video production agencies will charge on a day rate basis which may be anywhere from £500-£1000 a day depending on the level of experience.

With experience in drone video production, aerial filming and photography, we can provide you with a totally unique perspective to your story. Capturing all scales of sites, inside and out, drone is the perfect antidote to anything we might call ‘normal’, a dynamic and impactful aerial video having plenty of wow factor to liven up any video production. Allowing remote access to sites, tunnels, confined spaces tanks and pipework gives it a specific vantage point for any video survey and aerial inspection work. Our BBC background ensures a high-quality broadcast experience on every project, working in sync with your company goals and strategy, shaping your campaign through video content that’s within your budget and delivers results.

Visit our behind the scenes page to find out what goes into a video production.

For the construction sector in particular, drones allow for easy capture of a site or landscape, that you couldn’t possibly do with a film crew. The pilot can do multiple shoots showing the progression of your site, allowing you to update your audience on what’s new and what your site will eventually become. Drones are also a useful tool for site surveys, to help measure areas of land or provide a closer inspection of a tower or tank for example that may require maintenance.

With a skilled pilot at the helm, a drone can film all around your site, on top, as close as you need, and even inside a building for you. This can be for site survey, inspection and for marketing purposes.

Aerial photography means either video or photos shot from the air. Aerial photography is very accessible via drones.

The popularity of using drones has escalated over the past few years and for the construction sector this has been a key way of capturing site progress on an epic scale and showcase this to your audience. It’s popularity is always increasing as the technology improves, as does the amount of people devoting their careers to being drone pilots.

Depending on your site and where you are, mostly anything can be filmed as long as you have a license. However the drone can’t fly over roads as this is restricted – this can’t be done in any fashion so it should always be done on site or if you have special permissions if you need to cross over roads. You also can’t fly a drone within 50 metres of any person, vehicle or building not controlled by you. In addition some areas of land may have certain perimeter restrictions such as nuclear power stations and airspaces. Some sites will allow you to fly within a restricted area providing permission is granted first.

Yes, but only if there is enough space. Usually we use drones to film outside, however if your site is big enough, we can film inside on a drone.

Drones are generally not weatherproof. It is also better to film when it is nice weather anyway, as this makes for a better and clearer video.

Get in touch to discuss in more detail 0113 288 3245.

This depends on the drone and the battery. We recommend flying the drone for around 12-15 minutes to get the best footage, however this time can be extended in optimal conditions.

There aren’t any licenses you need to have a drone shoot your site, however you should always make sure that your pilot owns licenses to shoot. They should always register as an operator and have a Part 107 drone license so they can make money from what they are doing. In addition to this you will need to ensure their insurance information is valid and up to date.

360 Video

360 video is literally a view in every direction. The user can scroll through the image and see everything at the top and bottom of the shot and all the way around it. 360 video is created by stitching video together in a software to allow a seamless full panoramic view.

When it comes to seeing a site, product or location in full, nothing beats the power of 360 video. With the ability to portray the subject matter in just one shot this truly efficient and immersive media can make for extremely effective footage whatever story you’re telling.

Working with the latest tools and techniques our 360 video ensures you’re capturing a unique perspective that is perfect in portraying all sides of your work site.

Yes it can. Our 360 camera can be attached to a drone and deployed into a hard to reach location for 360 virtual inspection. This allows us to get up close and personal with our subject, normally plant and equipment in a remote and safe way and provide a full panoramic. It’s highly effective to customers who need to take a deeper look at a site’s intricacies, producing valuable imaging for better informed decision-making when making maintenance or operations plans.

A virtual tour is similar to 360 video but inbuilt into it are other multimedia elements that allow you to navigate forwards and backwards. This allows the user the move through the virtual site and decide where they want to go. Virtual tours can be created using stitched video and photographs. Property developers use virtual tours fairly often to walk someone around a house that isn’t built yet but can help show them what it might look like. This is useful for large developers when they might want their audience to navigate around the whole estate and look at different types of properties.

Virtual Reality Video Production

VR video can be used in a multitude of ways.

Training and development – to learn how to perform tasks safely or access an environment safely before doing it in the real world.
Marketing and promotion – to showcase site facilities when it’s harder for visitors to access or to demonstrate new products or prototypes in action.
For entertainment – to create an experience for your customers and clients that they will never forget helping make your brand memorable and to stand out from the crowd.

Virtual reality content is produced in two parts. The first part involves creating the virtual world or model the user will interact with. This might consist of a place based on a real environment and made to look life like or could be a fantasy non fictional environment. The model will be created in a way that the user will be able to move through it and interact with different elements within it. This type of content is produced by a 3D modeller or animator.

The second part is then to create the virtual experience. This is where a developer will create the elements that can be moved. For example characters or vehicles in the model might be given some form of artificial intelligence so they can move around the model and perform their own actions. The map within the model will be created too which will allow the user to move around as if they are within the model themselves. This model is then rendered within a gaming engine to allow for the high quality rendering whilst live action is taking place.

It’s important that the company you choose for this type of project has good 3D animation and 3D modelling experience. If you’re wanting to create an environment that’s photorealistic then the company will need a high level of experience to replicate that type of look. Ideally you would want to choose a company that also worked with similar types of organisations as they will be used too creating content for those companies. For example we produce a lot of content for industrial companies like manufacturing, engineering and construction so our experience would be best placed for clients in those sectors.

Interactive Video Production

Interactive video can provide a number of different clickable actions in relation to the content that is being watched.

Interactive video is an ideal tool to help enhance a corporate video production that requires some interaction and input from the user. You can use interactive video for a number of different experiences:

To create a training course.
To develop an e-learning programme.
To create an immersive marketing experience.
To convey policies and procedures in a more interactive manner.
For site induction programmes and new starter guides.

An interactive video company normally develop interactive videos in two parts. The content itself, so this may be in the form of a live action video, animated video or simple animated slide format or a mixture. This part of the content would normally contain the learning points, educational material or marketing content for the audience to engage with.

The second part of the interactive video are the interactive elements required where the user has clickable tasks and actions as a result of watching the video. For example these may be things like hotspots where the user clicks in a certain area of the video. It might include questions where the user has to select an answer in a multiple choice format or make a decision on what the next step will be in the process. These elements are created within a specific 3rd party software platform and then exported normally in an embed code to be accessed elsewhere.

Interactive video is an incredibly innovative tool for marketing. In a digital world, businesses are looking to find new and inventive ways to revolutionise their digital marketing. Interactive video production can offer a new way to promote your brand. For example, an e-brochure can be designed using an interactive video, and will allow your customer to decide what they want to know more about. They can click on a number of options that route through a series of questions, links, videos etc to present them with different outcomes. This interactive layer offers another form of engagement with your audience, giving them the control to make choices and decisions about what they want to see. This is empowering for companies who want to guide customers through a series of short questions, ultimately presenting them with the best products or outcomes.

Once the video is created it is normally hosted on a landing page where the embed code is placed. For companies this might be an area on their website or intranet that is accessed by staff only. Some companies may have their own learning management system that can act as the host for the content and interactive questions in a more basic format. 3rd party hosting platforms normally give more options for the interactive video and this can be managed by your video content provider.

In short, no, your interactive video can be as long or short as you want. Different types of videos will need to be different lengths, and this will be reflected in your quote.

There is no limitation for the number of interactive elements to be added to your interactive video. You may choose any number of elements you need to achieve your overall goals.

It is important to keep in mind that too many interactive elements overload the video, distract the viewer and can slow down the performance of the video.

Interactive video is a powerful tool for engaging audiences and creating memorable experiences. It allows viewers to interact with a video in real-time, making it more interactive and engaging than traditional videos. Interactive video production can be used for various purposes such as marketing campaigns, educational materials, product demos, and more.

Interactive videos offer several advantages over traditional videos. They help brands stand out from the crowd by providing an immersive experience that viewers can actively participate in and engage with. Additionally, interactive videos can be used to generate leads and drive conversions by collecting data about viewer interactions with the video. Finally, they are fantastic to use for training and upskilling employees, as interactive video production makes the content more memorable.

Yes, interactive video does work on mobile devices, and can be optimised to be used on mobile devices so your whole audience can enjoy it.

No, YouTube is not optimised for interactive video content and does not support third-party interactive video technology.

However, we recognise that YouTube is a crucial part of strategy for marketing, so we suggest that you use YouTube to drive people to your website and landing pages where that interactive video can be found.

Most social media platforms do not allow for interactive videos to be used or uploaded.

However, we recommend sharing a link on social media to the web page where the video is embedded or to the interactive video landing page, as this will help increase engagement.

Interactive videos are an innovative way to engage viewers and keep them coming back for more. They are created with the intention of providing an immersive experience that allows viewers to interact with the video content in a variety of ways. By leveraging interactive elements such as polls, quizzes, surveys, and other forms of engagement, interactive videos can help companies increase customer engagement and build better relationships with their target audience. These videos also provide valuable insights into user behaviour which can be used to optimise future video campaigns and improve overall marketing strategies.

Interactive video production is becoming increasingly popular as it allows brands to stand out from their competition and provide engaging content that resonates with their audience.

Yes, we can cater to your guidelines and match everything including style, font, colours and tone.

Every client of ours has a different objective in mind, some being to increase sales, increase brand awareness and stay ahead of the competition. The beauty of our subscription model is that it allows for regular video content which means that you can sustain your relationship with your audience for longer.

We optimise the title, description, thumbnail and other metadata. The goal is to make sure that when people search for videos on YouTube or Google, your video will appear on top of the page in their search results.

This depends on how much footage was taken on the shoot, but we’ll be sure to get you something within a week or two since the filming date, and sometimes much sooner than this.

You’ll then have the opportunity to provide feedback and suggest any tweaks to the edit.

Our editors will put together the best clips from the filming date to build a sequence. They will create the desired narrative and then add any suitable graphics, music, subtitles, text, titles and apply colour correction to provide a video of high standard for you.

YouTube SEO is a very important part of digital marketing. It helps to increase the visibility of your video and increase its organic traffic.

YouTube SEO is not just about optimising the video for search engines, it also includes optimising the title, description, tags, and other metadata. The goal is to make sure that when people search for videos on YouTube or Google, your video will appear in their search results.

The process can be broken down into three steps: On-page optimisation, off-page optimisation, and link building.

As part of the service, we will optimise your videos for you, allowing you to get the best engagement on your video content.

Podcast Production

Podcast production refers to the process of creating and preparing audio content for distribution as a podcast. A podcast is a digital audio or video file that is made available for streaming or downloading on the internet. Podcasts have gained immense popularity in recent years, offering a convenient way for individuals and businesses to share information, engage with their audience, and build a loyal following.

The production of a podcast involves several key steps. First, there is the planning phase, where topics are chosen, guests are invited (if applicable), and an outline or script is created. Next comes the recording phase, where the audio content is captured using professional recording equipment or software. This can be done in a studio setting or remotely.

Once the recording is complete, post-production takes place. This includes editing the audio files to remove any mistakes or unwanted elements such as background noise, adding music or sound effects if desired, and enhancing the overall quality of the sound.

After post-production, the finalized podcast episode needs to be formatted and uploaded to a hosting platform. This platform then generates an RSS feed which allows listeners to subscribe to the podcast and receive automatic updates whenever new episodes are released.

Our podcast production starts at just £450+VAT per month! The level of production will depend on factors such as budget, goals, and desired quality.

Podcasting has become an increasingly popular medium for businesses to connect with their audience and establish a strong online presence. If you are considering starting a podcast for your business, there are several compelling reasons why it could be a beneficial move.

Firstly, podcasting allows you to reach a wider audience. With the rising popularity of podcasts, more and more people are tuning in to listen to their favourite shows during their commute, workout, or even while working. By creating a podcast, you have the opportunity to engage with potential customers who prefer audio content over written or visual formats.

Additionally, podcasts provide a unique platform for showcasing your expertise and thought leadership. Through regular episodes, you can share valuable insights, industry trends, and practical tips related to your business niche. This establishes credibility and positions your brand as an authority in the field.

Another advantage of starting a podcast is the ability to build meaningful connections with your audience. Unlike other forms of content where communication is one-sided, podcasts create an intimate listening experience that fosters a sense of connection and trust between the host(s) and the listeners. This can lead to increased brand loyalty and customer engagement.

Furthermore, producing a podcast can also open up new opportunities for collaboration and partnerships within your industry. Inviting guest experts or influencers as guests on your show not only provides interesting content but also allows you to tap into their existing audience base and expand your reach.

There are two choices when it comes to recording your podcast. You can either use our studio space or we can travel to your office or site location.

Shot Blast Media can provide all the equipment needed for your podcast. We have specialist microphones, cameras and podcasting gear to make your podcast series professional and engaging!

We would recommend recording episodes between 15 minutes and 60 minutes long. The most popular podcasts are between 20 to 40 minutes long, however this depends on the topics being discussed and your target audience.
