Question 1

How much does a corporate video production cost?

Accepted Answer

Corporate video projects at Wonder Boy Media typically range from $3,000 to $60,000 depending on scope. A single-location highlight video for a local business sits at the lower end. A multi-day production with interviews, multiple locations, animation, and a full deliverable package sits at the higher end. The number that matters most is not the total budget â€” it is whether the budget matches what the project actually requires to work.

Question 2

How long does it take to produce a corporate video?

Accepted Answer

Most projects take two to four weeks from shoot day to final delivery, though the full timeline from first conversation to finished video is typically four to six weeks. The part clients underestimate most is editing. A single corporate video with interviews, B-roll, music, color correction, and graphics can take 20 to 60 hours of editing time alone. That is what the turnaround time reflects.

Question 3

What makes a testimonial video actually work?

Accepted Answer

The person giving the testimony is everything. The most effective testimonial videos start with finding the right subject â€” someone who is genuinely passionate about their experience and willing to show it. From there it is about preparation and creating an environment where they forget about the camera. When someone shows real emotion on camera, whether that is excitement, gratitude, or even a tear, that is when a testimonial stops feeling like marketing and starts feeling like a recommendation from a friend.

Question 4

Do I need a script before I contact a video production company?

Accepted Answer

No â€” and in many cases, coming in with a rigid script can work against you. The best video productions start with a conversation about what the video needs to accomplish and who it needs to reach. A good production company will help you develop the messaging and structure from there. What you do need before that first call is clarity on your goal, your audience, and where the video will live.

Question 5

Is a full production setup really necessary, or can we just show up and shoot?

Accepted Answer

Lighting and audio are the foundation of a result that reflects well on your brand. A camera alone does not produce professional video. The setup does. Clients who skip lighting and audio to save money almost always wish they had not â€” the regret runs that direction every time. If you are putting your name on it, the setup is worth it.

Question 6

Does Wonder Boy Media do VHS to DVD conversion or tape digitizing?
