Finding the right video production company can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack—there are so many options, and everyone promises to be "the best video production company." But as a video production company ourselves, we like to think that we know the signs of a great team (and the red flags of a not-so-great one). Here’s our advice for what you should be looking out for:
1. Do They Actually Listen to You?
Let’s start at the bare minimum. A good production team should be all ears. If they’re not asking questions about your goals, target audience, and vision, that’s a problem. Beware of companies who jump straight into pitching their ideas without understanding your needs first.
2. Check Out Their Portfolio (Not Just the Highlights Reel)
Every company has a flashy demo reel. Dive deeper—watch the full videos they’ve created. Look for variety, storytelling, and quality throughout. If all their projects look the same, they might struggle to adapt to your brand.
3. Do They Understand Your Industry?
While a good production company can learn about any industry, having some experience in your niche can be seen as a bonus. They’ll already know what works, what doesn’t, and how to communicate effectively with your audience.
4. Ask About the Process
A clear and structured process and timeline is a hallmark of a professional video production company. From pre-production planning, including scripting and storyboarding, to filming, post-production and final edits, they should be transparent about every stage of the workflow. This clarity not only builds trust but ensures your project stays on track. If a company provides vague answers or seems unsure about their process, it’s a major red flag. Choosing a team with a well-defined production process will save you time, money, and unnecessary stress while ensuring a high-quality video.
