This document proposes a video production partnership between VNA video production company and Rapiscan. It outlines VNA's capabilities and experience producing videos for various clients. The document suggests a package plan for Rapiscan involving the production of various video types over 12 months, including product demonstrations, corporate videos, and video news releases. Example packages are provided, with costs outlined in "production credits" equivalent to around £1,000 each. Additional creative video add-ons are also listed.

3. Rapiscan and VNA
Many of our clients need lots of video content on their website
We can price up individual jobs, no problem!
But we can also devise a package plan for a series of films
The client benefits from bulk-buying
We benefit from consistent work and the ability to pre-plan our workloads
4. Quality versus Quantity?
The internet is full of low-grade videos; cheap and cheesy green-screen studio
backdrops with hammy presenters trying to present products like professional
TV journalists.
But nobody really watches these films, because they’re boring and obviously
focused on selling rather than informing.
We take our time, think about what’s required and endeavour to produce
something that’s interesting, at least to a target market that is interested in your
product.
You wouldn’t produce a shoddy piece of print and video is no different.
A good, well-made video speaks volumes about your product and can outlast
other marketing collateral.
5. What We Think
Rapiscan is a market leading technology company. It is not in the business of mass-
marketing consumer goods.
The team responsible for investing in sophisticated aviation screening or cargo
inspection equipment will be experts (to some extent) in their fields.
We think that smart and intelligent films are need to engage these key decision
makers rather than a plethora of low-grade cheap films.
We would suggest that the right film nuanced to your target audience’s interests will
be a powerful and longer-lasting brand-building asset in your marketing armoury.
Will a mixture of shorter informative videos and video news releases, combined with
some more creative, thought-leadership corporate films will deliver for Rapiscan?
Please have a look at this highly-targeted creative internet film we produced for a
property developer seeking to inform Chinese and US investment bankers, it may
give you some ideas…

7. Production Credits
On longer contracts where a client engages us on multiple projects, we sometimes
simplify our pricing process by working in Production Credits.
1 Production Credit is a full day of a Director/Producer’s time and includes a full
day of a technician, whether camera operator or editor.
1 Production Credit is roughly equivalent to £1,000.
The video production process requires a level of experience to deliver a client’s
film.
Getting it right means having an experienced producer to oversee the production
process, organise the shoot, establish key messages, directing the shoot and then
working alongside the editor.
Working in Production Credits benefits the client because we view all the separate
requirements as a whole job-lot, rather than pricing-up every bit of work, additional
piece of equipment needed or extra hours required to complete the job.
In short a client who contracts with VNA for a series of films gets good VFM. It also
means that we save time on pricing-up jobs – which takes time! – and saves
everyone money.
