Commercial Video Production Company Hiring Guide

What is a commercial video production company?

A commercial video production company is a company that creates videos for business for advertising, promotional, or other commercial purposes. These videos are typically short form in nature, and come in different types such as: 

  • TV commercials 
  • Brand story videos 
  • Explainer videos 
  • Product demos 
  • Video testimonials 
  • Social media videos 
  • Website videos 
  • Training videos 
  • Event videos

The key challenges that businesses can overcome by hiring commercial video production companies include: 

  • Lack of experienced and skilled in-house video producers and editors 
  • Finding a clear goal for a commercial video 
  • Coming up with unique concepts and visuals 
  • Crafting messaging that resonates with the right audience 
  • Lack of high-quality videos with impactful content 
  • Building a solid brand image and enhancing its marketability 
  • Allocating resources efficiently to ensure videos are finished on time and within budget 
  • Standing out in a crowded marketplace 
  • Measure the ROI of their commercial videos 

With nearly 100 million people watching videos online each day, commercial video production is crucial to the success of a digital marketing campaign. It’s not just us talking either; nearly 90% of video marketers say video is an important part of their overall marketing strategy.  

Success story 

Here’s one great example of how commercial video production companies can make an impact on a company’s marketing strategy: 

  • Challenge: Honeywell, one of the world’s leading tech conglomerates, needed to introduce its latest software product to its customers, a digital dashboard that monitors employee efficiency. The goal of the video was to present the product in an inspiring way and encourage businesses to maximize their assets. That’s why Honeywell decided to partner with Synima and achieve the needed results. 
  • Solution: To effectively explain the client’s new product, Synima used a “digital twin” concept to explain how everything is done. The agency also used its state-of-the-art LED studio, which allowed for fully customizable digital backdrops that allowed the actors to perform in almost any setting or scenario. 
  • Results: Honeywell praised the final video for its messaging and mix of futuristic and contemporary visuals, which reflected the company’s ideals of “future technology today”. It also mentioned how convincing and dynamic visual effects created with the LED studio were. 

What do commercial video production companies do?

Commercial video production companies offer a range of services that bring a client’s vision to reality. These services can be broken down into three main categories: 

Pre-Production: 

  • Concept development 
    Brainstorming and refining ideas, including storyboarding and scriptwriting 
  • Audience targeting 
    Identifying the target audience and tailoring the video’s message for them 
  • Production planning 
    Setting the filming schedule and budget, location scouting, and securing necessary permits 
  • Casting and talent recruitment 
    Assembling a team of directors, actors, camera crew, and other staff depending on the film requirements 

Production: 

  • Filming
    Recording high-quality video footage on location or in a studio setting 
  • Direction 
    Providing guidance and direction to actors or presenters featured in the video 
  • Logistics 
    Coordinating all aspects of the shoot, from managing equipment to on-site needs 

Post-Production: 

  • Video editing 
    Assembling the film footage, adding text overlays, graphics, and special effects 
  • Color grading 
    Enhancing the visual style and mood of the video through color correction 
  • Music and sound design 
    Adding sound effects, background music, and voice-over narration 
  • Animation 
    Create 2D/3D graphics animation for a more visually engaging video 

Some commercial video production companies may also provide additional services such as training, consultation, and distribution of the finished video to various channels. 

Success story 

The following success story highlights the various roles that commercial video production service providers play in creating, refining, and managing video content for clients: 

  • Challenge: Fiverr, an online freelancer marketplace, wanted to develop a series of TV spots to showcase how both startups and established companies can benefit from Fiverr's platform. That’s why it decided to hire Colormatics for his project. 
  • Solution: Colormatics implemented a set of engaging and interactive visual components merged with live production to reflect the experience of finding and purchasing services from the Fiverr platform. Once the ads went live, the agency conducted real-time monitoring and adjusted for improved targeted performance. 
  • Results: Fiverr’s TV spots received more than 150 million impressions nationwide. The company also reported significant increases in brand recognition and conversion due to the ads. 

How much do commercial video production services cost?

The costs of commercial video production services can vary from $800 to $50,000 per month. This can also be affected by different factors, such as the timeline, number of shooting days, video length, location and travel costs, equipment, size of the crew, and the number and types of hired cast and crew. 

Here are the average hourly rates for the commercial video production services: 

  • 2D animation: $100-$150 
  • 3D animation: $100-$300 
  • Explainer video: $100-$200 
  • Training/educational video: $100-$250 
  • Commercial video: $100-$300 
  • Live event/streaming: $100-$400 
  • Documentary: $150-$400 
  • Corporate video: $100-$250 
  • Interview/testimonial: $100-$150 

The top 50 commercial video production companies on DesignRush charge an average of $170 per hour. 16.3% of the agencies are willing to accept small video projects with a budget of less than $1,000, while 2.1% focus on large-scale commercial video projects with budgets of $50,000 or more.

Success story 

To further highlight the importance of commercial video production companies, our experts shared this notable case study of Studio Graphene’s partnership with Bold Content Video

  • Challenge: Studio Graphene, an app development company, needed an employer brand and recruiting videos. As the demand for skilled app developers, designers, and engineers is becoming more competitive, the company needed video content that would make them stand out to potential hires. 
  • Solution: Bold Content Video collaborated with Studio Graphene’s HR and marketing teams to craft a clear, unified message about the passion and excitement of working for the company. The agency began production centered around that message while balancing creativity and consistency with the client’s objectives at the same time. 
  • Results: The resulting video created by Bold Content was hailed for its captivating visuals and its fulfilment of the client’s objectives. The client also described the video as an effective recruitment tool that they can use for years to come. 

How do I choose the best commercial video production company for my business?

To choose the best commercial video production company for your business, we recommend following the steps below: 

  1. Define your goals 
    Determine the purpose of your video and how you want to achieve it. Is it to raise brand awareness, hire new staff, or boost sales? Having a clear answer to this will give you an idea of the visuals, style, and the target audience for your video. 
  2. Set a budget 
    Determine how much of your budget you are comfortable allocating for the project. Production companies offer various packages, so having a clear budget in mind can help you refine your options. 
  3. Research and compile candidates 
    Start your search on Google and agency directories like DesignRush. You can also reach out to colleagues within your industry and ask them if they know of any agencies that they can refer to you. 
  4. Make a shortlist 
    Select a handful of prospects that best align with your goals and budget. Contact each one and request an interview. 
  5. Work history 
    Ask the company for a portfolio and case studies of their past work. Check if their style aligns with your vision and how the agency resolves the client’s various requirements.  
  6. Client reviews 
    Client testimonials like those found in DesignRush agency profiles are another good indicator of an agency’s performance and quality of work. Ask prospects if they have collaborated with notable brands. 
  7. Assess expertise and reputation 
    Whether it’s a traditional TV ad or a 3D-animated video, make sure that the agency has extensive experience in the type of videos you want to make. An agency that has received industry awards like the Webby Awards and the Telly Awards also reflects exceptional skill and standing in the community. 
  8. Send a formal proposal  
    Send out a request for proposals (RFPs) to your prospects outlining the scope of work, timeline, and costs. If the proposal contains any sensitive information, be sure to include a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) as well. 
  9. Review proposals 
    Note how the agency defines its goals, processes, and key performance indicators (KPIs), which it uses to track the project's progress. 
  10. Negotiate and set expectations 
    Discuss which services will be included in the package and at what rates. You should also agree on the project’s main deliverables and the ROI you will get from the video. 
  11. Choose your partner 
    Once you’ve considered all aspects, from cost, culture, capabilities, to experience, pick a partner that you think is the best fit.
