The pairing is only worth briefing if each sector constraint maps to something the deliverable actually does.
Explainer Video Production for Manufacturing
Explainer Video Production for Manufacturing is the one asset your buyer watches before they ever reply to an email. 90 seconds that make a complicated product obvious. We work as a production unit, not a rental desk — the same team that writes the script is on set for the shoot and in the room for the final grade, which is why the film that gets delivered still resembles the one that was approved.
Buyers want to see tolerance, throughput and safety culture, not stock footage of gears. In practice that changes the entire production plan. The person approving the film is usually the plant head / export sales, the hardest constraint on set is shop-floor ppe, hot zones and shift windows, and the number that decides whether the project was worth it is rfqs converted after film share. We design the schedule, the script and the deliverable set around those three realities.
We build the edit backwards from the last frame, so every earlier shot has to earn its place. Most briefs we take on replace a film the client already paid for once and never used. A typical explainer video production engagement runs 10-16 days end to end with 4-6 specialists on the production days, and lands between ₹35k and ₹2.5L depending on scale.

Six stages, no surprises
Sector approvals are scheduled as stages, not treated as interruptions.
- Stage 01Day 1-3
Discovery & brief lock
We sit with the people who actually own the outcome — usually sales, HR or the founder — and get to what the film has to change. The output is a one-page brief with a single measurable objective, not a mood board.
- Stage 02Day 3-7
Script & treatment
A written script, a shot-by-shot treatment and reference frames. Nothing is booked until this is signed. This is the cheapest place to change your mind and the most expensive place to skip.
- Stage 03Day 6-10
Recce & pre-production
Location recce in Pune, casting, permissions, art direction and a shotlist with timings. 4-6 specialists are scheduled against that list so the shoot day has no dead hours.
- Stage 04Shoot days
Production
Filming with After Effects, Illustrator rigs, Studio VO booth. We shoot for every deliverable in one pass — master, cutdowns and vertical crops — instead of returning for pickups later.
- Stage 05Day 10-18
Post-production
Assembly, edit, sound design, colour grade and graphics. Reviews run on timestamped links with two structured revision rounds included in the schedule.
- Stage 06Final week
Delivery & rollout
Platform-correct exports, subtitle files, thumbnails and a short rollout note on where each cut belongs. Lifts landing-page conversion by removing the 'what is this?' gap.
How explainer video production actually gets made
The part of explainer video production that decides the outcome is pre-production, and it is the part most quotes compress. A shotlist that maps every deliverable to a specific setup means a 4-6 specialists unit can cover in one day what an unplanned crew spreads across three. That is where the cost difference between a disciplined production and a cheap one actually shows up — not in the day rate, but in how many days you end up paying for.
On set we run After Effects, Illustrator rigs, Studio VO booth because the format has to hold up under grading and cropping later. Shooting at higher resolution than the delivery spec is not vanity: it is what allows a single wide take to yield a clean 16:9 master and a 9:16 vertical cut without a second shoot. Across Pune the practical variables are ambient noise, power stability and access windows, all of which we lock during the recce.
Post-production is where the film either becomes an asset or a folder nobody opens. The assembly edit answers whether the story works; the fine cut answers whether it holds attention; the grade and mix answer whether it feels like it came from a serious company. For manufacturing clients we also build the audit clearance and rfq conversion narrative directly into the structure, because that is what the plant head / export sales is actually evaluating.
Use cases we plan for on this kind of project include saas homepage, funding round, sales enablement. Each one implies a different length, a different opening and a different call to action, which is exactly why we produce a set of cuts rather than one film with a generic ending stitched on. Lifts landing-page conversion by removing the 'what is this?' gap.
Questions we get asked first
Do you provide regional language versions?＋
Marathi, Hindi and English are handled in-house with native voice artists, and we run a sync QC pass on every dub. Subtitle files are delivered as both burned-in variants and separate SRTs so the same master works on broadcast, social and an internal LMS.
Can you shoot at our own premises?＋
Yes. We shoot on-site across Pune and PCMC and bring our own power, lighting and sound control. A recce before the shoot day lets us design around ceiling height, ambient noise and access windows.
How long does the whole process take?＋
Plan for 10-16 days from locked brief to final master for a standard explainer video production project. Pre-production takes the largest share of that window because scripting, casting and location recce decide how efficient the shoot day is. Fast-track schedules are possible when the script is already approved and the locations are fixed.
Who owns the raw footage?＋
You do, for the licensed deliverables. Raw rushes are archived for twelve months and can be handed over on a drive at cost. We do not hold footage hostage as a retention tactic — the reason clients come back is the next project, not the archive.
What if we do not like the first cut?＋
Two revision rounds are standard and built into the timeline. Reviews happen on a timestamped review link so feedback is attached to the exact frame instead of arriving as a paragraph of notes. Structural changes after the first cut is approved are quoted separately, which is precisely why the script lock stage exists.
What do we actually receive at the end?＋
The delivery kit includes 60-90s explainer, voiceover in 2 languages, source project file, plus platform-correct exports, subtitle files and a clearly licensed archive of the master. You own the finished deliverables outright, and we hand over the project files on request so no future vendor is locked out.
How do payments and timelines work?＋
A standard schedule is 50% to lock the shoot dates, 30% at the shoot, 20% on final delivery. Dates are only held against a confirmed advance because crew and equipment are blocked out for you. Any change in scope is re-quoted in writing before work continues.
