Strategy & Planning
Work with our experts to define what videos you need and how you’ll use them. We’ll help you select a look and feel for your videos, and determine what content each video covers.
Our team of marketers, producers, directors and editors will work with you to get your videos recorded and edited as quickly as possible, with minimal impact on your staff.
Directed Remote Video Capture
Using pro-grade remote video recording technology, RDV captures stunning video footage (up to 4K) with just an iPhone or webcam, with no loss in quality, thanks to our stream-free solution.
A Live Director will be on every video shoot to help your subjects look their best, hit their talking points (by script or interview), look great doing it, and record an effective video.
Video Editing & Review
Our team edits the video footage into rough cuts, based on your specifications, with the animations you select, and any images or video clips you provide – within 7 business days.
They’re then uploaded to our video collaboration platform, where you can request edits with ease and precision. Two rounds of revisions are also included with our fixed-price packages.

Why Do Marketers Choose RDV?
