Sound familiar?
Most manufacturers we talk to are dealing with at least one of these.
01
Buyers cannot see your floor from your website
A buyer judging a new supplier wants to see the scale of the place, how tidy it is, and how parts are handled. A photo of the building and a list of machines leave most of that to guesswork.
How we fix it. We plan a short process video that follows a lot from receiving to final pack, so a buyer sees how their parts will be handled.

What a buyer can judge from your website, before and after a process video. 02
A film crew costs a lot and shows a staged day
A crew is booked for one day, the floor gets tidied for the camera, and most of the budget goes on filming. A buyer is judging your floor, and the camera work matters far less to them.
How we fix it. We write the script and a shot list, and someone on your team films on a phone on an ordinary working day. We do the editing and captions.

- One booked day

Your team, our shot list
- An ordinary working day
- Filmed on a phone in minutes
- We script, edit, and caption
Two ways to get footage of your floor. 03
Your team explains the same process again and again
Some processes are easier to show than to describe. Sales calls, plant visits, and new-hire training repeat the same explanation each time, and it takes the same person away from the floor.
How we fix it. We cut product demonstrations for your website, booth, and sales calls, and short training modules that play on a phone on the floor.

Good candidates look you up and see nothing of the plant
Machinists and welders check a company before they apply. A job ad lists the title and the shifts, and it shows none of the floor, the equipment, or the people they would work beside.
How we fix it. A recruiting video shows the plant, the shifts, and the people, for your hiring pages and social media.

How a video project works
You film on an ordinary day, and we handle everything else.
01
We write the script and shot list
We start with a short call about what the video is for and who will watch it.
02
Your team films on a phone
Someone who works on the floor follows the shot list on an ordinary working day. It takes minutes.
03
We edit and caption
Every video carries captions, so it works on a phone with the sound off.
04
We publish it
We put it on your website, YouTube, and LinkedIn, with a version cut for training or your booth where it helps.
What you get, and what it costs
Video is quoted per project, and you get the quote in writing before anything starts.
| What you get | Process, equipment, product, training, and recruiting videos, edited and captioned for your website, YouTube, and LinkedIn. |
|---|---|
| Price | Quoted per project, and you get the quote in writing before anything starts. |
| Who films | Someone on your team, on a phone, following our shot list on an ordinary working day. |
| Our part | We write the script and the shot list, then edit, caption, and publish each video. |
| What sets the price | How much is filmed and who films it. A videographer on site for two days is a larger project. |
| How it starts | A short call about what the video is for and who will watch it. |
Process videos
We follow a lot from receiving to final pack, so a buyer sees exactly how their parts will be handled.
Capability and equipment videos
Your machines, lines, and inspection are filmed running, to show capacity and care.
Product demonstrations
We show what a product does and how it is used, cut for your website, your booth, and sales calls.
Training and onboarding
Standard procedures, safety, and onboarding are split into short modules that play on a phone.
Recruiting videos
We show the plant, the shifts, and the people for your hiring pages and social media.
What sets the price
The cost depends mostly on how much is filmed and who films it. When your team films from our shot list, our work is the script, the edit, and the captions. When a videographer has to be on site for two days, it is a larger project. Every other price, including a logo at $360, is on our pricing page.
Video does the most on a website that answers buyers’ questions, and our manufacturing website design gives each video a page to sit on. With social media management at $1,900 a month, your clips also run in three posts a week, and the booth version pairs with the trade show material from our manufacturing branding work. As a manufacturing marketing agency, we plan the video, the site, and the posts together.
Questions manufacturers ask about video
- How much does manufacturing video production cost?
- Video is quoted per project, and the cost depends mostly on who does the filming. When someone on your team films from our written shot list, our work is the script, the edit, and the captions. When a videographer has to be on site for two days, it is a larger project. You get the quote in writing before anything starts.
- Do you come to the plant to film?
- Usually we do not. Most manufacturing video comes out better when someone who already works there films it on a phone, because they can catch the line running on an ordinary Tuesday. We write the script and the shot list, your team films, and we edit, caption, and publish.
- Which video should a manufacturer make first?
- Start with a process video that follows a lot from receiving to final pack, because it answers many buyer questions at once. If you are hiring, make a recruiting video next, showing the plant, the shifts, and the people.
- Can the same footage be used for training?
- Yes. We cut standard operating procedures, safety, and new-hire onboarding into short modules that play on a phone on the floor, so a new starter can watch the step before doing it.
