EcommerceHow does product video production work?
Six steps, one team. Most product videos take about four weeks from kickoff to final delivery, 28 days on average.
Discovery callThe product, the audience and where the video will live: product page, paid social or Amazon.
Concept and scriptConcept, script and a full shot list, approved before anyone books a camera.
Casting and talentHand models or on-camera talent, cast from the Los Angeles pool.
Set and location prepA tabletop rig, a styled lifestyle set, or a real location scouted and prepped.
FilmingDemo footage, macro details and lifestyle angles in one session.
Edit and deliverEdit, colour, sound and cutdowns for every platform. Three revision rounds and colour-corrected raw footage included.
Product video, medical device video, promotional video or commercial: which do you need?
Four formats that get quoted against each other. They are built for different jobs, and picking the wrong one is the most expensive mistake in a video budget.
Product video
Sells the product itself: what it does and how it looks in use.
- Length
- 30 sec to 2 min
- Runs on
- Product pages, launches
- Cost
- $6,000 to $25,000
Medical device video
Shows a device to clinicians and buyers, with every claim reviewed before filming.
- Length
- 1 to 3 min
- Runs on
- Sales demos, trade shows
- Cost
- $8,000 to $25,000
Promotional video
Sells one offer, event or campaign.
- Length
- 30 to 90 sec
- Runs on
- Website, social, email
- Cost
- $6,000 to $15,000
Commercial
A concepted spot bought as paid media.
- Length
- 6 to 60 sec
- Runs on
- CTV, YouTube, broadcast
- Cost
- $9,000 to $50,000
Most product launches need two of these: a product video for the page and the listing, plus either a promotional cut or a commercial for the paid media that sends people there. Planning them as one shoot is usually half the cost of two.
What is product video production?
Product video production is the planning, filming and editing of video whose job is to sell a product: what it does, how it looks in use and why it beats the alternative. It covers listing videos for Amazon and ecommerce, lifestyle films for social and paid media, and launch films for new products.
Viewers are usually already comparing options, so a product video has seconds to answer three questions, in this order. We script, light and cut every video around them.
A clear hero shot and the product named in the first seconds.
The product in real use, doing the one job it does best.
Macro detail, materials and finish that justify the cost.

How much does a product video cost?

|---|---|---|
| One product, studio shoot | $6,000 to $10,000 | Hero video plus listing and social cuts |
| Styled lifestyle shoot | $10,000 to $25,000 | Talent, props, location, several setups |
| Product line batch | From $6,000 per day | 5 to 20 products, an edit billed per product |
| Launch film | $9,000 to $35,000 | Concept, talent, locations, motion or 3D |
Building your own scope? Pre-production from $500, a half day within 50 miles of Irvine at $3,500, a full day at $6,000 to $8,000, and editing at $2,000 to $4,000 per finished video. A one-product half-day shoot with one edit comes to $6,000. Line-by-line detail is in the product video cost guide.

Product video production FAQs
How much does a product video cost?
Most product videos cost $6,000 to $25,000. One product filmed in a half or full studio day, with a hero video plus listing and social cuts, runs $6,000 to $10,000. A styled lifestyle shoot with talent, props and several setups runs $10,000 to $25,000. Filming a whole product line is priced per shoot day from $6,000, plus an edit for each product, which brings the cost per video down sharply when you have five or more products.
How long should a product video be?
It depends on where it runs. Listing and marketplace videos work best at 15 to 60 seconds, social cutdowns at 6 to 30 seconds, and a product page hero or launch film at 60 seconds to 2 minutes. We film once and cut every length you need from the same material, because a second edit costs far less than a second shoot day.
How long does product video production take?
About four weeks from kickoff to final delivery: roughly a week to agree the concept and shot list and gather the product, one shoot day, then editing and revisions, 28 days on average in total. Larger launches with talent, locations or 3D take longer. When a launch date is fixed, we plan backwards from it.
Do you film product videos in a studio or on location?
Both. Tabletop demos, macro detail and anything needing controlled light are filmed in our studio. Lifestyle scenes are filmed on location, in homes, offices, outdoors or at your facility, across Southern California and nationwide. Many projects use both on the same day.
Can you film our whole product line in one day?
Usually, yes. A single shoot day typically covers five to twenty products depending on how complex each setup is. The crew, lighting and editing templates are shared across every product, which is what makes batch ecommerce video affordable.
Do you make Amazon product videos?
Yes. 7 Hills Productions is a verified Amazon Ads partner. We produce listing videos, brand store content and sponsored video ads, and deliver them to Amazon’s current video specifications so they pass review the first time.
What do you need from us before the shoot?
Two or three units of each product if possible, so we have a spare when one gets scuffed, plus your brand guidelines, any claims your legal team has approved, and one person who can sign off on the shot list. We handle everything else, including styling, props and locations.
Can you make a product video without the physical product?
Yes. For products that are unreleased, still in prototype, internal or too small to film well, we produce 3D and animated product video from your CAD files or reference images. It is also useful for showing what happens inside a product that a camera cannot see.
Do you provide models, hand talent and props?
Yes, as itemised add-ons. Hand models, on-camera talent, product stylists and props vary widely in cost, so they appear as their own lines on the estimate rather than being buried in the production rate.
Do we get vertical versions for social?
Yes. We frame for both on the day, and every edit is delivered in 16:9 and 9:16 with captions. Larger sets of social variants with different hooks for paid testing are quoted as a package.
Who owns the product video and the footage?
You do. You get full commercial usage rights to the finished videos, and the raw footage is delivered colour corrected at no extra cost, so your team can recut it later for new listings, ads or seasonal campaigns.
What makes a product video actually convert?
Three things, in order. Show the product in the first two seconds, because most viewers never reach second five. Show it in use rather than describing it, because seeing the outcome answers the question the viewer came with. And answer the objection that stops people buying, whether that is size, quality, setup or price, before the video ends.
