Most training programs start with a pilot module to lock the look and length, then film the rest of the series in batch days.
What is a training video?
A training video is an instructional video that teaches a specific skill, process or policy, usually in modules of three to ten minutes. Good training videos pair a presenter or demonstration with on-screen text, screen capture or animation, and are built to be watched, finished and remembered inside an LMS or onboarding flow.
Every effective module answers three questions for the learner. We script and edit every lesson around them.
1Why does this matter to me?
The real consequence of getting it right, stated in the first 30 seconds.
2What exactly do I do?
Clear steps, shown on screen, in the order the learner will use them.
3How do I know I have it?
A recap or check at the end that locks the skill in.
What types of training and education videos do you make?
Eight formats, all produced in house. Most programs combine two or three.

How much does training video production cost?
Training video pricing comes down to the number of modules, how many can be filmed per day, and how much screen capture or animation each needs. Each range is a bundled total: planning, filming and editing included.
| Package | Typical range | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Single module | $6,000 to $12,500 | One presenter, one location, one finished module |
| Module batch day | $12,500 to $25,000 | Several modules filmed in one day, an edit each |
| Full course or series | Quoted per series | Multi-day filming, graphics, LMS packaging |
| Screen capture and animation | Quoted per module | Software recordings, diagrams, motion graphics |
Building your own scope? Pre-production from $500, a half day at $3,500, a full production day at $6,000 to $8,000, and editing at $2,000 to $4,000 per finished module. These match our rate card and budget estimator. More detail in the training video cost guide.

Training video production FAQs
How much does a training video cost?
Most training projects cost $6,000 to $25,000. A single module with one presenter at one location runs $6,000 to $12,500, and a batch day filming several modules runs $12,500 to $25,000. Full courses and heavy screen capture or animation are quoted per series. These figures match our rate card and budget estimator.
How long does a training video take to produce?
About four weeks from kickoff to final delivery, 28 days on average: curriculum and scripts first, then filming, then editing, graphics and revisions. Long series are delivered in batches so you can launch the first modules early.
How many training videos can you film in one day?
Usually four to eight short modules with one presenter at one location, depending on script length and set changes. Batch filming is what brings the cost per module down.
How long should a training video be?
Three to ten minutes per module works best for completion. Longer topics should be split into a series, and microlearning refreshers can be 30 to 90 seconds.
Do you write the scripts?
Yes, or we edit yours. We write for the ear, add on-screen text and graphics cues, and load everything into the teleprompter so presenters can deliver it naturally.
Can our own staff present the training?
Yes, and learners usually trust them more. We coach presenters, use a teleprompter and film in short takes so non-actors come across clearly.
Can you include screen recordings and animation?
Yes. Software walkthroughs, diagrams and motion graphics are produced in house and cut into the modules.
Do you deliver files for our LMS?
Yes. We export to your platform specifications with captions and, where needed, chapters, ready to upload to your LMS or course platform.
Can you film at our facility?
Yes. We film at hospitals, offices, campuses and plants, working around shifts and patient areas, or bring presenters into our studio.
Do you produce training for regulated industries?
Yes. Healthcare and finance are a large part of our training work, and we build your compliance review into the script and edit schedule.
How do we keep training videos up to date?
We design modules so sections can be re-recorded or re-edited without reshooting everything, and the raw footage is yours at no extra cost.
Who owns the training videos?
You do. You get full usage rights to every module, plus the colour-corrected raw footage for future updates.
