Do NOT DIY Video Production of a Case Study

Case study videos are data-driven testimonials that represent the success that your brand has had for a client or customer. While there’s no need to reinvent the wheel and most case study videos are just fine following a typical structure which includes problem introduction, solution, and results, a distinct difference lies between something having a known structure and something being “easy to do.” Case study videos are certainly structured similar from one to the next, but make no mistake – they are NOT easy to create.

Here are just a few reasons why you shouldn’t even think about trying to produce a case study without the help of a seasoned professional video production company:

– Great case studies require an amazing and powerful hook. Hooks are harder to create than they seem. For every 1000 hooks, there might be a small handful of them that are worthwhile.
– Selecting a spokesperson, customer, and experts to provide testimony as well as selecting an interviewer that can draw out the details of their stories can be quite the challenge, even for someone with experience.
– Data-driven stories are backed by – you guessed it, DATA. This is visually not always easy to portray. It really does take a professional.
– Staying on brand, engaging, and genuine with video is not something that just anyone can do – it really does take someone with a lot of skill.

 

These are just a few of the many reasons that you really shouldn’t skip ahead and attempt to film a video case study without the support of a full service Video Production Company. Case Study videos that stand out professionally can have profound value for your brand, but if they’re poorly produced they’ll stand out for all of the wrong reasons.

– Standing out against the competition for the right reasons.
– Proving to your target audience that your brand is trustworthy.
– Increasing conversions for your brand.

Of course, everything isn’t perfect so naturally we’ve got to talk about the potential lows or cons that could result from you hiring a Video Production Company. Case Study videos that are produced by a professional could:

– Take a bit of time, especially if you hire a professional that’s not ready to take on your project right away. You can mitigate the risk of lengthy production times by making your deadline clear upfront and being sure to submit any request or communications in a timely manner. This will speed things up quite a bit.

– Become outdated in a short period of time if you’re in an industry that is rapidly changing such as tech. Again, you can mitigate the risks by staying ahead of your competition with your research and being upfront with your production company about the need for rapid turnaround.
