Ready To Create Your Video?

How does Brightbulb create
explainer videos?

We start with getting to know your company: who you are, what you do, and what exactly you’d like to explain in the video.  Then we take what you gave us and let it percolate in our heads in a team meeting where everyone’s sharing ideas, seeing what works and what doesn’t. It might be a central metaphor or perhaps a key piece of visual that the entire story of your company or product can spin around. But at the very end, what you’ll have is a video refined and brought to life by creativity and powered by strategy. That’s because the two components that truly make a good video is the creativity that keeps viewers engaged and the strategy that finely attunes your message to your audience.
