Video carries the person

Thirty Seconds of Your Team Beats a Page of Claims

Video production for brands and businesses is the strategic creation of high-quality video content tailored explicitly to achieve a company’s commercial goals, rather than for artistic or entertainment purposes.

Unlike Hollywood filmmaking or casual social media vlogging, every element of business video production, from the pacing of the script to the placement of the call to action, is designed to drive measurable business outcomes, such as building brand awareness, educating customers, or generating direct sales.

Crew and Gear

What a Shoot Day Looks Like

Two or three people: a director-operator, a second camera and sound. Cinema camera, proper sound. The person on camera needs an hour and memorizes nothing. Everyone else keeps working.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what people ask before they call.

Answering a video question

How much does a 2 minute video cost?

A professional 2-minute marketing video typically starts from $2,000 for standard corporate or SaaS marketing content.

Depending on production style, complexity, and crew size, the price can range anywhere from $1,000 to over $30,000+. The standard rule of thumb is to measure video production by the cost per finished minute, which starts from roughly $1,000 per minute for standard business-grade video.

How long does a video project take?

A typical 2-minute video project typically takes between 4 and 8 weeks from initial kickoff to final delivery. If you are working with an experienced agency, the project will move through three distinct phases. Delays rarely happen during filming; they almost always occur during script changes or feedback loops in the editing phase.

Do we need a script before we start?

You do not need to have a script written before you start working with a video production company or marketing agency. Most clients begin the process with nothing more than a rough concept, a couple of bullet points, or a specific business goal.

Who owns the footage?

You receive usage rights to the final, edited videos once paid in full, as defined in your project agreement. Raw footage and working files stay with Kreativ HQ unless your agreement includes them or you purchase them separately.

Can you film at our location?

Yes. We travel all over the United States for video production, and we shoot photography and video on location almost anywhere. For some shoots we confirm availability and travel costs first.

Filming at your actual office, storefront, or warehouse makes your video look authentic, builds immediate trust with customers, and completely eliminates expensive studio rental fees. Moving a professional film crew into an active workplace requires planning though.
