What Is The Process For Creating A Product Video?

Product video and product demo video productions follow a linear flow similar to most other video productions — from Pre-Production, to Production, and through Post-Production:

  • Define your target audience and key messaging.
  • Choose a storytelling style that best suits your unique product offering.
  • Invest in storyboard creation whenever possible.
  • Identify and secure the ideal filming location(s).
  • Invest in cinema cameras and lenses whenever possible.
  • Enhance your product video with graphics, animation, and sound fx.

Though every step in the process is important, investing time in Pre-Production is the surest way to ensure a successful outcome while avoiding wasted effort and unnecessary expense.
