Gail van Dijk
Marketing Director at Communisis
5.0★
Video Production Review from Gail van Dijk
Faced with a tight deadline and limited in-house resources, I turned to Bulb Studios to create a high impact product video for use across a global sales team. It was a great decision. The team at Bulb interpreted the brief perfectly, turning around the first cut in record time. The editing process was smooth. Communication was excellent. I have no hesitation in recommending Bulb Studios - their knowledge and technical expertise are superb!

Mobile App Development Review from Ray Meadham
Jim and the team from day one offered a professional, cost effective service. From UX to UI design they dealt with the unique nature of our product and supported us through the process. They delivered an outstanding mock up for Multiview which allowed us to progress and deliver to clients.

Mobile App Development Review from Mick Cassell
Bulb did a great job of a tricky task, helping me to evaluate the attractiveness and 'fitness for purpose' of an app that my clients had already developed. This was effectively a consultancy project and I was impressed not only by the team's knowledge of game design, UX and UI but also by their ability to provide really insightful analysis with great clarity and structure. Above all, issues weren't left hanging - clear routes to improvement were presented and communicated persuasively. The team was also a pleasure to work with and I would have no hesitation in working with them again or recommending them to others.

James and his team at Mission Control are exceptional and not the norm when it comes to creative agencies. They take time to understand your needs, meet your deadlines and are always available to you, no matter the time zone. I worked with them in my last company and have made sure to continue with them in my new position as they are superior to any company I've worked with in the past (and I've worked with many). Communication, creativity and quality work from Mission Control is outstanding!

Luma Creative was fantastic to work with! They designed and built a beautiful wood panel backdrop for our new radio/podcast studio, navigating a small, challenging space with ease.

Working with Tom and JAXONLABS has been incredibly valuable. Tom has helped us think more clearly about our brand strategy, how we position the business, and how our story shows up across our marketing.

Xponent21 helped lead our organization through both a rebrand and website redesign. They were efficient, flexible with timelines, and willing to prioritize certain items according to our needs. Their processes are very collaborative, which ensures that the client is never in the dark about their project. Most importantly, Xponent21 had experience doing similar projects for other nonprofit organizations, which was aided in their ability to align with our mission.
Overall, a flexible and accommodating client experience that delivered the results we were hoping for.

Frequently Asked Questions About Video Production Companies
What are the typical video production services?
Video production services typically encompass the end-to-end video creation lifecycle, helping businesses move from concept to final, channel-ready assets. These services are divided into three key stages:
Pre-production: Establishing objectives, audience, creative approach, scope, budget, and timeline. Deliverables include a script, storyboard, shot list, casting plan, location plan, and production schedule, along with a list of risks, permits, and approvals needed.
Production: Filming the actual video, with the crew, cameras, lighting, audio, and direction of talent. This often includes capturing supporting footage (B-roll) and managing the set to stay on schedule.
Post-production: Editing the footage, including color correction and grading, sound mixing, motion graphics, and visual effects (VFX), and adding captions or subtitles. It also involves creating multiple versions for different channels.
Many corporate video production companies also cover the distribution and video marketing, including marketing strategy, platform publishing, search engine optimization (SEO), paid media, and social media.
What type of video should your business invest in?
The type of video your business should invest in will depend on your goals and target audiences. A useful rule of thumb is to start with a hero video content and plan shorter cutdowns for target social channels.
Here are the most common types of videos:
Brand video or corporate video focuses on establishing brand positioning and trust. It may also help attract and convert candidates for employment. Examples include recruiting videos, team spotlights, and onboarding and training videos.
Commercial video production aims to increase brand awareness, customer engagement, and conversion rates. These can come in the form of product demo videos, customer story or testimonials, TV commercials, and social media videos (e.g., TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube).
Product education and customer success videos help improve activation and retention. These include how-to videos, explainer videos, feature walkthroughs, onboarding series, and release announcements.
Event videos extend the value of events and product launches through teasers, live streams, session recordings, and post-event recap videos for public relations (PR) and social media.
Based on Wyzowl’s report, the most popular types of videos created by businesses are live action (51%), animated (23%), and screen record (19%).
In terms of use cases, social media videos take the lead (69%), followed by explainer videos (68%), testimonial videos (57%), presentation videos (48%), and video ads (48%).
How long should your video be?
The length of your video will depend on your target audience, goal, message, and distribution platforms. According to Wistia’s State of Video Report, these video lengths have the highest engagement:
Goal
Ideal Length
Example
Brand awareness and social media engagement
<1 minute
Promotional videos, product teasers, and brand videos
Educational videos
1-5 minutes
Explainer videos and product demos
Training videos
30+ minutes
Webinars and online courses
Additionally, Wistia reports that 30-60-minute videos have the highest conversion rates at 17%, with the best placement for lead generation forms at the end of the video (60% conversion rate).
For short-form videos (less than 1 minute), the best practice is to hook your viewers within the first 5-10 seconds.
What is the difference between 4K and 1080p?
The primary difference between 4K and 1080p is the resolution (pixel dimension), which affects how much detail the video can display:
1080p (Full HD): 1920 x 1080 (2.1 million pixels)
4K (UHD): 3840 x 2160 (8.3 million pixels)
Here is a breakdown to guide your decision-making process:
1080p (Full HD)
4K (Ultra HD)
Advantages
Smaller file size, making it easier to share and store
Almost all devices, platforms, and screen sizes support this format without sacrificing quality
More affordable to produce
Higher quality videos, especially for large displays
Enables video cropping, stabilization, and reframing without affecting quality
Future-proof technology, with 4K video becoming the increasing standard
Disadvantages
Less flexibility for cropping and zooming
Less detail on large screens
Requires higher processing power, storage space, and internet bandwidth
More expensive to produce as post-production can be more demanding
Best for
Social media videos and web video ads
Mobile and laptop screens
Shoots where you expect multiple cutdowns/crops
Product or brand videos meant for big screens (e.g., billboard displays)
OTT and CTV ads and TV commercials
Computer screens and smart TVs
How can you measure the success of your video?
To measure the success of your video, consider your marketing goals, past performance, and industry benchmarks to identify its definitive business impact. Below are key video marketing benchmarks:
Brand awareness and reach
