The 7 Best Video Production Companies in Kitchener Waterloo

Video Production Profession Adobe Premiere Pro

Whether you are a small local startup or part of the marketing department of a national organization, video production is probably something you have thought about. There’s almost no better way to capture (and keep) the attention of an audience to get your message across and while this form of advertising is as old as marketing itself it was only adapted to a digital format in 1994 by AT&T. As access to digital production software like the Adobe Creative Suite or Final cut is made increasingly accessible, sometimes it is very enticing to just learn the skills yourself! While it can’t hurt to have some basic understanding of video production and editing, in reality, the time and resources that would go into developing these skills often outweigh outsource costs. 

As a brand, specialization will allow you and your company to focus on your competitive advantages, and as an individual it’ll allow you to spend more time on the things you love. 

For all your video production needs, here is a list of some of the best video production companies around Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario.

By focusing on their core competency, this company has been able to refine every part of wedding media and provide professional level service on your big day. Although Token Weddings is much more specific than the others on this list, they command a mention due to their incredible quality.

 

Digital North Media

Marketing, creativity and technology is the name of the game for Digital North Media, and they really take it in stride with their unrivaled digital marketing capabilities. While they do video production, this company is designed to take your whole brand into account, video is the cherry on top of an integrated mix of web development and marketing. For this reason, Digital North Media is much more well suited to work with large or established brands compared to start-ups and individuals. 

 

Memory Tree Productions

This is the last but far from the least mention on this list. While other companies like Token Weddings or Meta Media have chosen their niche and stuck to it, Memory Tree Productions  has gone the complete opposite route. The scale of their operations has allowed them to invest in skills and hardware inaccessible to other studios like extensive animation, drone footage, 360 VR and even virtual tours! This is the largest and most general studio, so if you are unable to get your project done anywhere else by a specialist, you can guarantee that Memory Tree will have it covered. 

 
 

Conclusion

Video can be the best media to promote any up and coming brand,  or preserve personal memories for a lifetime. But with so many moving pieces it can also be a cause of a lot of stress. 

Hopefully this list has given you a good overview of the many specialists and general media companies in the area so you can find the one that is right. Outsourcing your video projects to an organization that knows this through and through will not only save you time and stress, but likely money down the road.
