Pittsburgh video production
Commercials and social video from the agency that runs your ads.
We write it, shoot it, cut it for every format, then put it in front of the right people and report what it did. One shoot day covers the commercial, the brand story, and a month of vertical clips.

The same production day becomes the commercial and the vertical piece, each made for where it will be watched.

Commercials and video ads
For a business that needs to be seen, a commercial is the hardest working video you can own. We write it around one clear offer, shoot it on location in Pittsburgh, and deliver lengths for streaming TV, YouTube, and social, so one production can run wherever your customers are watching.

A brand story gives people a reason to choose you before they ever call. These are longer films built on real interviews and real work, right for a homepage, a sales conversation, a recruiting page, or a company milestone.

Vertical video is where most people will meet your business first. Short clips are shot and framed for the phone, captioned for watching with the sound off, and ready for Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts.

An event only happens once, but the video keeps working. A recap captures the room, the people, and the energy, then gives you something to post that week, send in an email, and use to sell next year's event.

Four beats, one shoot day.
- 01
We plan where the video will run
Before anything else: what is this video for, who sees it, and what should they do next. A commercial for a Google Ads campaign and a brand story for the homepage get planned differently, and we plan both from the start.
- 02
We write the script and shot list
Script, shot list, interview questions, locations, and a shoot-day schedule, all in writing and approved by you before the crew is booked.
- 03
We run the shoot day
Crew, camera, lighting, and sound at your location or in a studio. Most local business projects are one day. You show up; we handle everything else.
- 04
We edit and deliver every version
Edit, color, music, captions, and revisions, then delivery in every format you need. The commercial goes into the ad campaign. The vertical cuts go into the content calendar. The brand story goes on the site.
Questions buyers ask
Before you book a shoot.
How long does it take to produce a commercial?
Most local business commercials go from first call to finished spot in four to six weeks: a week or two for planning and scripting, one shoot day, and two to three weeks for editing and revisions. Short-form social cuts from the same shoot are delivered alongside it.
Do you write the script?
Yes. We write the script, the shot list, and any interview questions, and you approve them before the shoot. If you already have a script or a clear idea, we work from that.
Do you shoot on location or in a studio?
Both. Most local business video is shot on location because the shop, the trucks, the kitchen, or the office is the point. Studio shoots make sense for product work and controlled interviews. We recommend based on the video, not the convenience.
Can we use the footage in ads?
Yes, and that is usually the plan. Commercials are built for YouTube, streaming TV, and Meta campaigns from the start, and our Google Ads and paid social teams are involved before the shoot so the creative matches the campaign.
Do you make vertical videos for Instagram and TikTok?
Every shoot produces a set of :15 to :60 vertical clips with captions, built for Reels, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts. If we manage your social accounts, they go straight into the content calendar.
How many revisions are included?
Two rounds of revisions on every edit are included, and in practice most projects need one. Changes to the script or shot list after the shoot are a new scope, and we tell you that before it happens.
Who owns the finished video and the footage?
You do. Every finished file and the raw footage are delivered to your drive. There are no hosting fees, no license terms, and no restrictions on where you use it.
Do you do drone footage?
Yes, where it adds something: roofing and exterior work, property and real estate, large sites, and events. Drone work is flown by a licensed operator and planned into the shot list rather than added on.
What areas do you serve?
Pittsburgh and the surrounding area: the North Hills, South Hills, Cranberry, Robinson, Monroeville, Washington, Butler, and Beaver County. Shoots farther out are fine; we just plan the travel.
How much does video production cost?
It depends on the length, the number of shoot days, and how many versions you need. A single-day shoot that produces a commercial plus a set of social cuts is the most common local business project. We scope it after a conversation and quote it in writing.
How do I choose a video production company in Pittsburgh?
Watch their finished work first, then ask who writes the script, who is on set, and what you receive at the end. Ask how the video will be used after it is delivered, too. A good video that nobody sees does not help your business, so the plan for where it runs matters as much as the camera.
What makes a good commercial for a local business?
One clear message, real people and real places, and an obvious next step. Local commercials work best when they show customers something true about your business that a competitor could not claim. We keep the idea simple so it still works in 15 or 30 seconds.
Where should my business use video?
Start where customers already decide: your homepage, your Google Business Profile, your social accounts, and your ads. A short video on a service page can answer questions before the phone rings, and the same footage can be cut into vertical clips for Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts.
Do you travel outside Pittsburgh for video shoots?
Yes. Most of our work is in Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania, and we can travel for the right project. Tell us where you are and what you need, and we will include it when we scope the job.
