You’re making a corporate video. So you’re going to film it in your office…right?

Think about what your location can say about your video subject, without any actual words.

The end of 2024 gives us the chance to reflect.

What metrics do you use to measure your year?

The hours you worked, the tasks you checked off, the emails you fired off? That seems unlikely.

Our lives, just like our careers, are more than just the numbers.

The new year gives us the chance to look back on what really matters. It might be the friends we saw, the personal goals we reached, or the hobbies we explored. The experiences that make us feel human.

Looking forward to doing more of what we love, together, in 2025.

Wishing you a restful and restorative holiday, from our tribe to yours.

You don’t need a video—you need a solution to a corporate communications challenge.

What kind of communications challenges can video solve?

- You need to decrease employee turnover and strengthen team morale
- You need to convince stakeholders to invest in your idea—but your analytical jargon will put them to sleep
- Your new executive leader needs to make a connection with thousands of employees fast
- You hope to break a donation record on the first day of your fundraising campaign launch

All of these problems share a common factor: reaching the solution requires a human-to-human connection. When done correctly, video can build the relationships you need and serve your company for years to come.

Crafting an effective corporate video is a big task to handle on your own.

Here’s a few tasks that video production experts can take off your hands:

- Narrowing down the script (alongside the internal communications team) for direct and specific messaging
- Directing talent who aren’t public speaking professionals
- Capturing footage of your team and location that crafts a story
- Selecting music that sets the tone of your video (and doesn’t sound like an elevator soundtrack)
- Editing together a polished final video for as many platforms as you need

Over 84% of marketers say that video has helped them generate leads.

How's that for return on investment?

Video in an email can increase reply rates by up to 90% versus text alone (Vidyard)

Marketers who use video grow revenue 49% faster (Wordstream)

Video makes it faster and easier to convey your business proposition. With captions and translations, one video can be released globally.

Once you have your leads, personalized videos can maintain those relationships, any time, anywhere.

That's the power of video.

Want to stand out? Video is the differentiator.

A friend owns a sustainable goods shop in Boston:

She was recently accepted into a new business accelerator and mentorship program. Why her out of thousands of candidates?

She submitted a video with her application.

In just a few minutes, she was able to convey her business's vision and why she’s a worthy candidate for the program.

Video brought her brand to life, showcasing her passion, commitment, and potential in a way that words alone couldn’t capture. This visual approach set her apart, winning her that coveted spot.

Video is like going to a party.

Come late, leave early.

You want to arrive amid the action and sneak out before it gets boring.

Keep your viewer engaged by cutting out the fluff and getting right to the message.

When you've made your point, end your video. (Nobody wants to be stuck in a conversation with a rambler...)

Corporate communications aren’t one-size-fits-all.

Your favorite tailored suit isn’t going to fit the same way on anyone else.

And one message isn’t going to appeal to each of your audiences. They have different priorities, values, and concerns.

Knowing what your audience cares about most allows you to craft messages that resonate, inform, and persuade. And messages created with a specific audience in mind are more likely to drive engagement and achieve meaningful success.
