Testimonial Video Production Services

Share Your success

Testimonial videos are an excellent way for your clients to speak about their positive experiences with your brand, product or service. Their authenticity can be compelling and can be the nudge they need to make a final decision.

Make The Ultimate Impression

Last-minute resistance when closing a sale is a challenging obstacle that can be made easier with testimonials.

Potential clients want to know their money will be well spent, but whatever assurances you give them will never be as compelling as the ones they get from their peers. Having a great testimonial video will make all the difference.

What Exactly Is A Testimonial Video?

A testimonial video is when a customer shares their experience of working with your company and advocates for your brand or services:

  • Provide some background information on the business challenge so viewers can understand a bit more about the reason for a customer’s recommendation.
  • Feature interview footage and B-Roll of the person providing the testimonial. This creates a further sense of context for the viewer.
  • Be informative but relaxed. The most successful testimonials are when a customer explains their satisfaction personally and expresses it in their own words. 

A great testimonial video production is often filmed in a comfortable environment. It features interview questions that help your customers advocate about their positive experiences with your brand, product or service.

Best Approach

We’ve all seen testimonial videos. The emphasis here is on the storytelling part. Even the most flattering endorsement can be made more compelling by being turned into a story. It’s the difference between an infomercial and a documentary.

It’s hard to imagine a company or organisation that couldn’t benefit from creating a Testimonial Video. Social proof is a powerful thing. When potential clients are in the consideration phase, seeing someone with a similar problem experience success can go a long way in convincing them to take the next step.

The Storytelling Advantage

Credibility

When one of your customers is willing to spend their own credibility on your behalf, it speaks volumes to your prospects. Word of mouth is still the strongest form of marketing known to mankind.

Intrigue

Well-told stories have tremendous power to draw people in. And your prospects are bombarded with thousands of messages every day. Make no mistake; they need to be drawn in. Enticed. Intrigued.

Authority

Reality is authoritative. It’s hard to argue with a true story. And when you can make that story clear and compelling, you infuse your message with authority.

Try An Animated Testimonial?

When you think of a testimonial, you probably imagine video footage of a real-life customer sitting in front of the camera telling their story. But there is another way to do a testimonial video that allows you to do things visually that aren’t possible with live-action production.

In fact, it’s often much more engaging and a great marketing strategy. By incorporating animation and motion graphics, you can really stand out.

What Are Best Practices?

Here are some general principles to consider when planning your next testimonial video production:

  • Hold a conference call with the interviewee before the shoot to build some rapport.
  • Develop questions that will likely lead to answers you believe will be most effective.
  • Provide the client with the interview questions in advance of the shoot, so they have time to think about their responses.
  • Ask the client to restate the question in answer to provide context.
  • Shorter responses are better. Gently remind clients that 20-30 seconds for a response is more than enough.

Be conversational with your client. Have fun with the interview. Expect to ask specific questions more than once. And most importantly, remember the power of editing. Perfect answers aren’t required. Good editors can do wonders with interview footage.

Things To Consider?

When it comes to our testimonial video production process, we flow from Pre-Production to Post-production and always start with the following considerations.

  • Identify customers who would be willing to provide a testimonial.
  • Secure a filming location. Often, their offices work best because then B-Roll can also be captured to provide the context within their daily lives.
  • Develop interview questions.
  • Film the interview and related B-Roll and supporting footage.
  • Edit the video and finalise.

You know you have a great testimonial video when your customer wants to share it too. Aim for them to be comfortable and have fun with it.

How Can I Differentiate My Customer Testimonial Videos?

Testimonials are extraordinarily powerful opportunities for your brand. This is your customer we’re talking about, and how they are portrayed in the video matters intensely. This is where the power of our cinematic approach makes a huge difference:

  • Ask interview questions that will lead to answers which speak to the emotion you want your audience to feel.
  • Your customer is a rock star for your brand. Consider filming with cinema-grade cameras and lenses, so they look fantastic.
  • Go beyond a tripod to introduce camera motion.
  • Consider filming with multiple cameras. This helps with the editing process and also significantly steps up production quality.
