How TV Production Works: The Process from Brief to Broadcast

Professional video production process
November 24, 2023Not all corporate videos are the same. The format you choose should be driven by your objective, your audience, and where the video will be distributed. Here’s a breakdown of the main corporate video types and when each one makes the most sense.
1. Executive and Interview Videos
Best for: thought leadership, annual reports, investor communications, media profiles
Typical length: 2–5 minutes
What it involves: A single-camera or two-camera interview setup, usually in the office or at an event. A professional crew handles lighting, audio, and camera — the executive just needs to speak.
These videos perform well on LinkedIn, in investor presentations, and on About or Leadership pages on company websites.
2. Client Testimonial and Case Study Videos
Best for: sales enablement, website conversion, trust-building
Typical length: 1–3 minutes
What it involves: An interview with a satisfied client, often shot at their premises, with B-roll of their team or product in use.
Testimonial videos are one of the highest-converting formats in corporate video. A real client speaking candidly about results is more persuasive than any amount of marketing copy.
3. Explainer and Product Demo Videos
Best for: complex products or services, website landing pages, sales decks
Typical length: 60–120 seconds
What it involves: A mix of live footage, screen recording, motion graphics, or animation — depending on what best illustrates the product. Often includes a voiceover.
Explainer videos reduce the cognitive load of understanding a complex offering. They work especially well for SaaS products, financial services, and anything with a process that’s hard to visualise from text alone.
4. Event Coverage and Conference Videos
Best for: extending the reach of live events, content marketing, internal comms
Typical length: 2–5 minute highlights, plus individual session recordings
What it involves: One or more ENG crews capturing the event — keynotes, panel discussions, networking moments, and attendee reactions.
Event coverage turns a one-day event into months of content. Highlight reels drive social engagement; session recordings become gated content or training material.
5. Live Corporate Broadcasts
Best for: all-hands meetings, product launches, shareholder briefings, hybrid events
What it involves: A professional crew with a LiveU unit or fixed encoder streams your event live to employees, investors, or the public — simultaneously recording a clean archive copy.
Live broadcasts add immediacy and scale to corporate communications. A CEO addressing 5,000 remote employees in real time is categorically different from sending a recorded message — it signals presence and priority.
6. Training and E-Learning Videos
Best for: onboarding, compliance training, process documentation
Typical length: Variable — often broken into 5–10 minute modules
What it involves: A mix of presenter-led segments, screen recordings, and graphics. Often produced as a series rather than a single video.
Choosing the Right Format
Start with the objective. If you want to build trust with potential clients, a testimonial video will outperform a brand film. If you want to explain a product on a landing page, an explainer will outperform an interview. If you want to reach remote employees at scale, a live broadcast will outperform an email.
