What is a CaseStory?

It is your brand in action.

A CaseStory tells a specific story about a particular situation, when your brand overcame a challenge. In CaseStory’s we don’t pull any punches or speak in corporate jargon. We tell the story:  the obstacles, the stakes, and how your brand, served the real hero (your client).

  • Typically 2 to 4 minutes in length.
  • Interview-driven narrative with story beats accented by music & visual tonal shifts. Imagery comprised of relevant, curated footage.
  • Evokes emotions of authority, empathy, & authenticity.
  • Proven successful for sales, fundraising, & online engagement.

What is a Brand Feature?

It is your brand elevated.

A Brand Feature harnesses the power of emotions like humor, awe, and interest. We purposefully manufacture a potent video to spike your viewer’s emotions, then, while the emotions are high, we tie in your branding, forever cementing you in the viewer’s memory.

  • Typically 15 – 60 seconds (but longer form video is not unusual).
  • Highly energetic, often cinematic, and pacing is driven by music & attention-grabbing creative foundation.
  • Evokes emotions of humor, allure, and likeability.
  • Proven successful for brand recognition, engagement, and sales.

What is a Culture Spotlight?

It is your brand illuminated.

A Culture Spotlight brings clarity to the more intangible aspects of your organization. The goal is to be factually clear and emotionally resonant. The result is an elevated corporate video with heart, soul, and clarity.

  • Typically 1 – 3 minutes.
  • Displays the core values & personality behind your work, communicated through interviews and b-roll capturing the heart of your organization.
  • Evokes emotions of trust, understanding, and belonging.
  • Effective for recruiting, onboarding, and brand loyalty.

Our Story

We discover and develop our clients stories into collateral that inspires action.

Wakeen Studios is a team of experienced filmmakers and marketers who specialize in telling our clients’ stories in a way that resonates with their audiences. As a part of the Wakeen & Company family of marketing and communication brands, we believe that every single business and organization has a story to tell, and we are passionate about helping our clients share their stories in a meaningful way.

 

We understand that creating compelling content without intentionality and strategic planning means lost opportunity. That’s why we work closely with our clients to align our work with their broader strategic plans and maximize resources so that content can be used, repurposed, and further developed to extend the life of any marketing campaign. We love to shepherd our clients through the production process by bringing vision and clarity, ensuring that their role in the process is not burdensome, and creating content together that actually moves the needle by inspiring action.

 

Have a Question?

FAQs

Well, that’s a bit like asking how much a car costs. It depends on the features, the specs, the timeline of delivery, etc. But we can safely say that we’ve handled projects for clients with budgets ranging from $10,000 to $250,000. So, while your $10,000 may not buy a fancy new Tesla Cybertruck, it can still be put to effective use, as long as we are strategic in the approach.

A typical timeline for our process is 6-8 weeks. However, we’ve turned around CaseStory videos in as little as 3-4 weeks, and we’ve had Brand Features that took six months just to plan.

First of all, that’s not really a question, is it? But hey, so many of our clients start out this way. We enjoy the challenge when a client doesn’t know exactly how they want to market their brand with video because we get to go through a really engaging and creative discovery process and most times, we uncover some real gems. Many times a client is simply too close to their own story/product/culture to see how remarkable it is. That’s where we can come in and pitch a new spin on video marketing.
