Absolutely. We often create a main spot plus cutdowns, vertical versions, and platform-specific edits to maximize reach and ROI across different channels.
corporate video production
What makes a corporate video different from a commercial video?
A corporate video is designed to support internal goals or business communication, rather than paid advertising. These videos often address company culture, recruiting, onboarding, or client relationships, and focus on building trust and clarity within or around your organization.
How do you measure the success of a corporate video?
Success depends on the goal of the video. For recruiting, it may be the number of applicants or improved retention. For About Us videos, it could be a stronger brand perception or client engagement. For testimonial videos, success is often tied to increased leads and conversions through social proof.

How can a corporate video help with recruiting and retention?
Recruiting videos showcase your company culture, values, and workplace environment, helping attract candidates who are the right fit. They also reduce turnover by setting realistic expectations and inspiring employees to stay engaged.
Where should we start with corporate video production?
For most companies, the best place to start is with an About Us video or a testimonial video. An About Us video establishes your brand story, values, and culture, giving both clients and employees a clear understanding of who you are. Testimonial videos provide instant credibility by showcasing real client success stories. Together, these formats create a strong foundation that can be built upon with recruiting, training, or other corporate video content.
Can corporate videos be repurposed for different uses?
Yes. A single About Us video can be edited into shorter cuts for social media, testimonial clips can be used in sales presentations, and recruiting videos can be adapted for career fairs or job postings. Repurposing maximizes ROI and extends the life of your content.
event video production
What makes an event video different from other types of video?
Event videos are designed to capture the energy and highlights of a live experience, such as a corporate conference, brand activation, or concert. Unlike commercials or corporate films, event videos focus on documenting real moments and turning them into content that promotes future events and strengthens brand presence.
How do you measure the success of an event video?
Success depends on the goals of the event. For promotional events, it may be social shares, media coverage, or increased attendance the following year. For corporate events, it could be stronger engagement with employees or clients. For concerts or activations, success is often tied to brand impressions, reach, and audience interaction.

Most event videos are delivered within 1 to 4 weeks after the event. This includes editing, music licensing, graphics, and revisions. Larger multi day events or projects with multiple deliverables may require additional time.
How can event videos help increase attendance for future events?
Event videos serve as powerful promotional tools. By showcasing the highlights, atmosphere, and impact of your event, they create anticipation and excitement that drives more registrations and attendance the following year.
What is the best type of video to start with for an event?
Most organizations begin with a highlight reel or recap video, as it captures the essence of the event in a short, engaging format. For brand activations, a dedicated activation highlight video is a strong choice to showcase creativity and audience engagement.
Can event videos be repurposed for other marketing needs?
Yes. A single event video can be cut into social media clips, testimonial moments, sponsor highlights, or branded content for future campaigns. Repurposing extends the life of your event footage and maximizes ROI across multiple platforms.
non-profit video production
What makes a nonprofit video different from other types of video?
Nonprofit videos are designed to inspire action through authentic storytelling. Unlike commercial or corporate videos, nonprofit projects often highlight mission-driven stories, donor impact, or community outreach, with the goal of engaging supporters and building trust.

How can nonprofit videos help with fundraising and donor engagement?
Videos bring your mission to life by showing the real impact of donations. When donors see and hear authentic stories of change, they’re more likely to give, stay engaged, and share your mission with others.
Where should we start with nonprofit video production?
For most nonprofits, the best place to start is with an impact story or a mission-driven video. These formats create a strong foundation by communicating your purpose, highlighting the lives you’ve touched, and giving supporters a clear reason to get involved. Donor highlight videos are another effective starting point to show generosity in action.
Can nonprofit videos be repurposed for different uses?
