Lead Generation Services
Video production services are among the most effective tools for turning attention into action. When strategically crafted, our video production services build trust quickly, communicate value clearly, and guide viewers toward a next step—whether that’s booking a call, downloading a resource, or requesting more information.
Common video types used for lead generation include:
- Video ads (social, search, and OTT)
- Lead magnet videos (guides, downloads, gated content)
- Testimonial or case-study driven ads
- Short-form vertical videos for social platforms
Lead Conversion Services
Once a lead is captured, the right video content can be the difference between hesitation and action. Conversion-focused videos are designed to remove friction, answer objections, and reinforce confidence in your solution at the moment it matters most. By delivering clear messaging, social proof, and emotional reassurance, video helps prospects feel informed, supported, and ready to take the next step—whether that’s making a purchase, signing up, or committing to a partnership.
Common video types used for lead conversion include:
- Sales and offer overview videos
- Product demos and walkthroughs
- Customer testimonials and case studies
- Personalized sales videos
- Objection-handling and FAQ videos
- Comparison and “why us” videos
- Onboarding or next-step videos
- Retargeting and follow-up video ads
Training & Education
Video is a powerful way to share knowledge consistently, clearly, and at scale. Training and educational videos allow organizations to standardize messaging, reduce repetition, and empower audiences with information they can revisit anytime. Whether used internally or externally, well-produced educational content improves understanding, increases retention, and supports long-term success by making complex ideas easier to absorb and apply.
Common video types used for training and educational content include:
- Employee onboarding and orientation videos
- Internal training and process videos
- Educational explainer videos
- Software and system walkthroughs
- Compliance and safety training videos
- Customer education and support videos
- Learning series and video libraries
- Microlearning and short-form instructional videos
Brand Building
Strong brands are built on clarity, consistency, and connection—and video brings all three together. Brand-building content helps define who you are, what you stand for, and why it matters, creating an emotional connection that lasts well beyond a single interaction. By telling authentic stories and showing the people behind the work, video builds recognition, trust, and long-term loyalty while setting the foundation for every other marketing effort.
Common video types used for brand building include:
- Brand story and manifesto videos
- Company culture and values videos
- Mission-driven and purpose-led films
- Founder or leadership message videos
- Social-first storytelling content
- Event recap and highlight videos
- Lifestyle and behind-the-scenes videos
- Long-form brand films and short-form brand clips

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a corporate video cost?
Most corporate videos in the Twin Cities land between $2,500 and $25,000, with the majority of small-business projects in the $5,000–$15,000 range. Our crew rates run from $125/hr (editing) to $500/hr (full crew). For a real number for your project, use our free instant quote tool — it takes about two minutes and no sales call.
How long does a video project take?
Most projects deliver in 3–6 weeks from kickoff. Testimonials and explainers can turn around in 2–3 weeks when the timeline calls for it. Rush delivery under two weeks is possible with a rush fee.
What areas do you serve?
We’re based at Talking Head Studio in St. Paul and serve the entire Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. We regularly travel throughout Minnesota and beyond for shoots, and our production van brings the full gear package to your location.
Do I own the final videos?
Yes — you own the final deliverables for your business use across your owned channels. Paid media usage, broadcast placement, and talent buyouts for hired actors are negotiated separately when applicable, and we spell them out in the quote before you commit.
Can we produce multiple videos in one shoot day?
Absolutely — it’s one of the highest-leverage budget decisions you can make. A well-planned single shoot day can produce three to five finished videos by batching testimonials, promos, and social cutdowns.
What if we need content every month?
That’s exactly what the Creative Content Plan is for: an embedded creative team — strategy, production, editing, and motion design — on one predictable monthly plan, for less than the cost of a single hire.
Serving Minneapolis–St. Paul and greater Minnesota. We're based at Talking Head Studio in St. Paul and produce video across the Twin Cities metro every week. Our production van brings the full gear package anywhere in Minnesota — and we travel beyond for the right project.
