templates
SaaS overview video brief ↗Introduce a product through one complete job rather than a catalogue of features. This brief is for a prospect deciding whether to explore further.
templates
Feature launch video brief ↗Focus on what changed for an existing or informed audience. Context should be short enough that the new behaviour remains the centre.
templates
Product Hunt launch video brief ↗A launch audience needs quick orientation and evidence. Make the product category understandable before introducing a clever hook.
templates
LinkedIn product teaser brief ↗Build a professional, silent-friendly explanation of a recognisable work problem. Treat recommended timing as an editorial choice, not a platform limit.
templates
Vertical product ad brief ↗Use genuine mobile footage when the claim concerns mobile use. Keep the product readable beneath short copy.
templates
Homepage hero demo brief ↗The hero video should substantiate the headline beside it. Keep its first useful frame visible as the poster.
templates
Sales follow-up video brief ↗Continue the conversation the buyer already had. Select evidence for the objection or question that remained unresolved.
templates
Customer onboarding video brief ↗Teach the first useful task, not the whole product. The learner should be able to reproduce the result after watching.
templates
Changelog video brief ↗A changelog clip gives an existing user a concrete reason to revisit a screen. Keep the date and release scope in accompanying text.
templates
Integration demo brief ↗An integration story needs a real connection and observable data movement. A provider logo alone is setup evidence.
templates
Dashboard demo brief ↗A dashboard becomes meaningful when a viewer understands a question it answers. Lead with a decision rather than a wall of numbers.
templates
Search feature demo brief ↗A good search demo reveals relevance and refinement. Choose a query that produces a visible, useful difference.
templates
Collaboration feature demo brief ↗Collaboration is a change in shared work, not merely a list of members. Show what one person contributes and what another sees.
templates
Workflow automation demo brief ↗An automation demo must show its trigger and result. Distinguish a configured rule from a rule that actually ran.
templates
Reporting feature demo brief ↗Reporting is valuable when it turns a question into a usable answer. Make the selection and output easy to compare.
templates
Content calendar demo brief ↗A calendar story should show how an idea becomes organised work. Empty calendar views are context, not proof of scheduling.
templates
Collection library demo brief ↗A collection makes retrieval easier only when a saved item can be found again. Include the return journey.
templates
Settings walkthrough brief ↗Settings videos should help a viewer make a specific configuration decision. Limit the scope to non-sensitive fields.
templates
Pricing-page explainer brief ↗Explain the decision behind a plan rather than manufacturing urgency. Pricing details must match the current published offer.
templates
Agency client demo brief ↗A client-facing video needs agreed scope and brand boundaries. Make it clear whose product is being promoted.
templates
Before-and-after video brief ↗A comparison should hold the task constant so the change is understandable. Use comparable data and avoid implying measured speed from edited time.
templates
Demo retargeting brief ↗A follow-up creative can assume awareness but still needs evidence. Answer a plausible remaining question instead of repeating the introductory ad.
templates
Webinar promotion brief ↗Promote what the viewer will learn and show a small authentic example. Keep event logistics outside the reusable footage where possible.
templates
Release recap brief ↗A recap needs a hierarchy so several updates do not become a blur. Group changes by the job they improve.
