Benefits of Producing Corporate Videos for Schools
One of the main benefits of corporate videos for schools is that they allow for a more dynamic and engaging form of communication. While traditional methods such as newsletters and brochures can be effective, they are rather static and may not fully capture the attention of the audience. Corporate videos, on the other hand, can be more interactive and visually appealing, making them more effective at capturing and retaining the attention of viewers.
Other benefits of corporate videos for schools include
Accessibility: Corporate videos can be accessed online at any time, and can be distributed through various channels, such as social media, email, and websites. This allows for a wider reach and the ability to target specific audiences, such as prospective students, parents, and alumni.
Cost-effective: Corporate videos can be an affordable alternative to hiring guest speakers or sending students on outreach sharing sessions.
Marketing and recruitment: Corporate videos can be used as marketing tools to attract new students and showcase the unique features and benefits of a school. They can also be used to recruit new teachers and staff members.
Different styles of School Corporate Videos
There are many different examples of school corporate videos, each with its own unique style and focus. Some common themes include:
Introducing the school: These videos are often used to introduce the school to prospective students, parents, and stakeholders. They may include footage of the school’s facilities, classrooms, and extracurricular activities, as well as testimonials from students, teachers, and other stakeholders.
Showcasing academic programs: Many schools create corporate videos to highlight their unique academic programs and offerings. These videos may focus on specific subjects or departments, or they may showcase the school’s overall approach to education.
Promoting extracurricular activities: Schools may also create corporate videos to promote their extracurricular activities, such as sports teams, music programs, or clubs. These videos may include footage of students participating in these activities and may be used to recruit new members or showcase the school’s achievements in these areas.
Fostering a sense of community: Some corporate videos are designed to foster a sense of community and connection among students, parents, and stakeholders. These videos may include testimonials from members of the school community, or they may highlight the school’s values and mission.
Celebrating achievements: Schools may also create corporate videos to celebrate their achievements, whether it’s academic, athletic, or artistic. These videos may include highlights from awards ceremonies, showcases, or other events, and may be used to motivate and inspire students and stakeholders.

The video is a great example of how to make corporate video meaningful. By casting real alumni, the video was able to tell the story of the company in a way that was authentic and relatable. This made the video more engaging and memorable for viewers, and it helped to build trust and credibility for the university.

The concept takes inspiration from a day in the life of Angsana Primary School. We wanted to showcase how the school goes from its quiet slumber to waking up and welcoming the students and teachers every morning. We wanted to showcase how the school comes to life in the early hours of the morning and grow in energy as the day-to-day activities play out.
Through these visuals, we feature selected students and teachers as they share their experiences in Angsana Primary School. The stories are aimed to be narrative and inspirational as we wanted actual recounts of growing up in the school instead of bringing across cold information about the school and what it offers.

School Corporate Videos Production Process
When you are planning your school’s corporate video, make sure to follow the following steps;
- Define the purpose and target audience: The first step in creating a corporate video is defining the video’s purpose and target audience. What do you want to accomplish with your corporate video? Do you want to highlight your school’s facilities, academic programmes, or just introduce your school to the community? Who do you want your corporate video to reach? Your target audience may include parents, students, or stakeholders such as donors or alumni, depending on your objectives. Understanding your target audience will assist you in tailoring your message and selecting the most effective medium for reaching them. This will help to ensure that the video’s content is relevant and effective in achieving its objectives.
- Develop a concept and script: Following the definition of the purpose and target audience, the next step is to create a concept and script for the video. This will entail coming up with ideas, researching relevant information, and outlining the main points that the video should cover. Keep it brief and focused on the main points you want to convey. To help bring your message to life, include testimonials from students, teachers, or other stakeholders.
- Plan the production: The next step is to plan the video’s production after the concept and script have been developed. This includes deciding on a location, hiring crew and talent, and planning the shoot. Whether you create the video in-house or hire a professional production company, it’s critical to select a team that understands and can bring your vision to life. Look for a team that has created corporate videos before and has a portfolio of work that demonstrates their skills and style.
- Film the video: Setting up and lighting the location, rehearsing and filming the scenes, and capturing any necessary b-roll footage will all be part of the video’s actual filming. Your corporate video’s visuals are just as important as the script. Consider which images and footage will best convey your message and aid in bringing your vision to life. Images of your school’s facilities, classrooms, or extracurricular activities could be included to allow the viewer to better visualise the facilities offered at your institution.
- Edit and post-produce the video: Once the footage has been captured, the next step is to edit and post-produce the video. This will involve selecting the best takes, adding a soundtrack, and adding any necessary graphics or special effects.
- Distribute and promote the video: The video’s distribution and promotion are the final steps in the production process. Will you use it at events or in presentations, or will you post it on your school’s website or social media channels? This can be accomplished through a variety of channels, including social media, email, and websites. Distribution planning will assist you in ensuring that your video reaches the right people at the right time.
Conclusion
In conclusion, creating a school corporate video can be a powerful way to engage parents, students, and stakeholders in your vision for student’s development. By defining your goals, identifying your target audience, developing a script, and choosing the right production team and visuals, you can create a corporate video for your school that effectively communicates your message and values and helps to build a sense of belonging and connection within the community.
