Marketing Video Production Service
Remove the costs, complexities and physical barriers of producing professional, live-action marketing videos at scale.
The cost of producing videos has traditionally made video impractical for many projects. Remote Directed Video (RDV) is a better way to produce live-action video content at scale.
Pro-grade remote video capture combined with our team of marketers, directors and editors make producing marketing videos easy, with minimal impact on staff resources.
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, determine the content of each video, and develop a plan for producing your videos.
Directed Remote Video Capture
RDV’s remote video technology captures stunning footage (up to 4K) with just an iPhone or webcam, with no loss of quality to streaming. A Live Director is on every “video shoot” to make your subject feel at ease and look their best, so they can deliver an effective video.
Video Editing & Review
Our editors turn the footage into rough cuts of your videos, based on your specifications, within 7 business days. They’re then uploaded to our video collaboration platform, where you can request edits with ease and precision.
Remote Directed Videos are produced by marketers. Learn more about how we deliver effective marketing videos – quickly and cost-effectively.

“In a marketing video, you have to deliver your message through other people. I can tell Thoughtcast Media what I need out of a video, and they can get subject matter experts, customers, and thought leaders to say the things that correlate with that message.”
