A product launch video often carries the whole campaign: it plays on the landing page, in paid ads, at events and across social channels. This checklist from Film by Him, a post-production, 3D animation and VFX studio, helps brands plan one that works everywhere.

Contents

# 1. One message, stated early

Decide the single idea viewers must remember, and say or show it within the first five seconds.

# 2. Show the product working

Close-ups, real use and clear benefits beat abstract mood. If the product is not ready yet, 3D product animation can show it from CAD files.

# 3. Plan every cut-down from the start

Script a 60-second hero film, then 30, 15 and 6-second versions. Frame shots so they work in 16:9, 1:1 and 9:16.

# 4. Budget for finishing

Editing, colour grading, sound design and motion graphics are what make a launch film feel premium. Leave time for at least two rounds of review.

# 5. Captions and accessibility

Most social viewers watch muted, so burn in captions and keep key text large enough for phones.

# 6. A clear call to action

End with one action: buy, pre-order, sign up or learn more, and match it to the landing page.
