Corporate / Industrial B-Roll Package

Client: private

Eric shot this video at a variety of manufacturing and testing facilities throughout the U.S. He then created a complete corporate b-roll package for this client, whose name and logo must be kept private due to contractual obligations.

B-roll packages are collections of video clips provided to the media so that they have the images you want them to have when you make news. Use corporate b-roll package video when preparing to make new product or process announcements, or when corporate leadership will be interviewed for TV or the Web.

Similarly, manufacturers that no longer allow tours can create tour videos to use for public speaking engagements, or pre-tour preparation in areas where talking/listening is difficult. Video is also useful for in-house safety or equipment training for new employees or visitors.
