Fair questions.
Straight answers.
What is video production?
Everything it takes to turn an idea into a finished video: strategy and script, storyboards, filming or animation, editing, motion graphics, color, sound, and the versions for each screen it will play on. A production company runs all of it with one team, so you get one plan, one point of contact, and one fixed price. We make explainers, trade show loops, brand and product films, commercials, nonprofit stories, and documentaries.
What is a corporate video?
Any video a company makes to do a job: explain a product, open a trade show booth, tell a customer's story, recruit, train, or report to investors and donors. The good ones are built around one decision the viewer should make next. We have made them for Starbucks, Whole Foods, Crocs, Trimble, KnowBe4, and LogRhythm, and for nonprofits like Room to Read.
What type of video production do you specialize in?
Trade show booth loops and silent-first LED wall content, explainer videos, motion graphics and animation, commercials and ads, product videos, brand films, event and sales kickoff videos, customer stories and testimonials, recruitment and culture videos, crowdfunding videos, training and internal videos, social and campaign videos, nonprofit stories, and documentary films. We also take post-production only and production only work. We combine traditional filmmaking with cutting-edge techniques, including AI-assisted workflows where they multiply speed without cutting craft.
How much does video production cost?
It depends on scope: animation or live action, runtime, number of deliverables, and complexity. Animated work is priced per finished second, starting around $6,500 for a 30-second loop. Live action is quoted per shoot day plus post. After a short discovery call we give a precise, fixed quote. No surprise invoices.
What does a $15,000 video budget get me?
At $215 per finished second, $15,000 buys about 70 seconds of finished animation: a brand, product, or explainer piece with script, storyboard, design, animation, voice, music, and revisions included. On the filmed side it covers a one-day shoot with a small crew plus edit, color, sound, and a set of cutdowns for most single-location films; extra locations, cast, or days move it up. Tell us the number and we will tell you exactly what it buys.
How much does a corporate, promo, or commercial video cost?
Filmed work is quoted per shoot day plus post. A single-location, one-day shoot with a small crew, plus edit, color, sound, and a set of cutdowns, lands around $15,000 for most promo and brand films. Extra days, locations, cast, or motion graphics move it up. A 30-second animated piece starts around $6,500. We give a fixed quote after one discovery call.
How much does an explainer video cost?
A 90-second animated explainer runs around $19,000 at our $215 per finished second, with script, storyboard, design, animation, voice, music, and revisions included. A 60-second cut lands near $13,000. Live-action explainers are quoted per shoot day plus post.
How much does animation or motion graphics cost?
2D motion design runs about $215 per finished second. A 30-second trade show loop lands around $6,500; a 90-second explainer around $19,000, with script, storyboard, design, animation, sound, and revisions included. 3D, character animation, live-action integration, extra revision rounds, and rush timelines move the number. We quote a fixed price after one discovery call.
How long should a video be?
As long as the job needs and no longer. A trade show booth loop is 30 seconds, because people are walking past. A promo or brand film runs 60 to 90 seconds. A homepage explainer runs 60 to 90 seconds, and a technical walkthrough for sales follow-up can go to two minutes. Paid social and pre-roll get 30 seconds or less. Documentary is its own clock. We deliver a long cut and the short cutdowns from the same production.
How long does a project take?
A simple trade show loop runs 4–6 weeks. A typical animated explainer takes about 10 weeks. Documentary work is scoped per project. Our full process (strategy, pre-production, production, post) runs about twelve weeks on the normal clock, nine when it is tight.
What is your video production process?
Four steps, three weeks each, one approval at the end of every step: Creative Strategy (1–2 weeks) defines what will convert. Pre-Production (2–3 weeks) designs everything on paper: script, storyboard, VO, music. Production (3 weeks) executes exactly to the board. Post-Production (3 weeks) turns footage into a conversion asset.
What is post-production?
Everything after the camera stops or the animation is approved: the edit, motion graphics and titles, color grading, sound design and mix, visual effects, captions, and the cutdowns for each platform. We do post-production on its own for clients who already have footage, see the a la carte options on our services page.
What should we look for in a video production company?
Proof in work like yours, not a showreel of everything. A fixed quote, not an estimate that grows. A written process with an approval at each stage, so you see the script and storyboard before anything is animated or filmed. Clarity on who owns the files afterward (you should). And the people who will actually make it on the call, not a sales layer. Ask those five questions and the field gets short fast.
Where are you based?
Our team is spread across Colorado and Florida, our crews film worldwide, and most client collaboration happens remotely: brands nationwide, nonprofit work across 27 countries.
What formats do you deliver?
High-resolution 4K masters plus versions cut for every destination: LED walls, booth screens, web, social, broadcast. Multi-language versioning available.
Do you offer nonprofit discounts?
Yes. Every registered 501(c)(3) receives a dedicated discount. Giving is part of who we are: $180k+ donated to nonprofits and counting.
Can you make a launch video before our product is finished?
Yes. We build polished product demos from screenshots, mockups, and design files, so your launch video ships when you do.
