AI Video Production Success Stories
But enough about us. Here’s what our clients say about working with Indigo.
I hired Indigo for an important shoot at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Frick Collection in New York City. I'm happy to say that they did an outstanding job! I'd recommend them without hesitation to anyone who wants to work with a world-class video production company.
— Production Specialist
I am encouraging publishers, marketing teams and media companies to work with Indigo Productions whenever the opportunity is given.
Our publishing company in London has commissioned Indigo to prep and shoot a short film in central Manhattan, New York for one of our biggest clients, Salesforce – and the service has been excellent, to say the least.
—Executive Producer
I'm constantly impressed by Indigo Productions, they're an amazing company. As a Preferred Partner & Vendor here at Salesforce, they've created over 50 videos for us over the years. Indigo has a great team of professionals whose work is consistently innovative, visually stunning, and most importantly, masterful in delivering a powerful message.
— Enterprise Director
Indigo did a great job filming some of the biggest names in film and television over 3 intense days in a high-profile 'mission-critical' project. They interacted with everyone with ease and complete professionalism despite an extremely challenging schedule. Everyone who has seen the finished video has raved about it. I recommend Indigo highly.
— Consultant
Indigo was straightforward, responsive, and ready to collaborate. This was my first time producing a live stream, and Indigo was patient with the multitude of questions
- big & small - their response time was unparalleled. When it came to the day, we had an A+ crew from Indigo, and the stream went off without a hitch. Thank you, Indigo!
— Production Coordinator
Massively impressed with Indigo's work on our corporate animated explainer video. Starting with our (sad) script, they turned it into an engaging, visual, and attention-grabbing sequence filled with symbols and emotional attachment. Additionally, Max and his team are reasonable and good to work with...we'll be back for more video work.
— Managing Director
Working with Indigo has been fantastic. Indigo brought vision, creativity, flexibility, leadership, and the rare ability to bring our ideas to the screen in the most dynamic way possible. I’m also delighted that they were able to scale up with us as the scope of the project expanded. Two thumbs way up for Indigo!
— Director of Content
Indigo is truly a team; your team. They jumped in with both feet to make something new and exciting happen and went above and beyond in quality, scope & creativity. The head of the company and team is transparent, results-driven, and highly effective. So good I almost want to keep it a secret so I have them all to myself! LOL.
— Senior VP of Worldwide Content
After an extensive search for the right production company for a promotional video for a new fund we were raising, we narrowed our search to 3 firms. The quality of the work we saw on the Indigo website brought them to the top of the list. Indigo was the first company we met with in person, and we knew without meeting the others that Indigo was our choice.

Seven Tips to Create an Effective AI Video
AI tools are powerful, but the principles of great video haven’t changed. Here are seven things to keep in mind as you plan your AI video production.
1. Start With Strategy, Not Tools It’s tempting to dive into the newest AI model the moment it drops. Resist that urge. Start with your audience, your message, and your business goal. The right AI tool is the one that serves the story, not the other way around.
2. Decide Where AI Adds Value Not every shot needs to be AI-generated. The most effective projects use AI surgically: a hard-to-shoot environment here, a synthetic crowd there, automated dubbing for global rollout. Be intentional about where AI replaces traditional production and where it enhances it.
3. Protect Your Brand Voice AI can mimic styles, but it can also flatten them. Work with a team that understands brand guidelines and can train, prompt, and direct AI tools to stay true to your visual identity. Consistency across frames, scenes, and campaigns is what separates pro work from generic output.
4. Mind the Uncanny Valley Audiences can spot AI weirdness instantly: warped hands, drifting backgrounds, unnatural eye movement. Quality control matters more than ever. Every AI-generated asset at Indigo passes through experienced editors and VFX artists who catch and fix the artifacts that erode credibility.
5. Be Transparent Consumers increasingly want to know when they’re seeing AI-generated content. Decide early how (and whether) you’ll disclose AI use, and align with the legal, ethical, and platform-specific guidelines that apply to your industry.
6. Respect Talent, Likeness, and IP Synthetic voices, digital doubles, and AI-generated characters raise real questions about rights and consent. Indigo follows industry-leading practices on licensing, talent agreements, and content provenance so your campaign doesn’t become a liability.
7. Hire Professionals Anyone can prompt an AI tool. Few can direct one. The difference between a viral AI ad and a forgettable one is the experienced team behind it. Indigo brings together directors, editors, VFX artists, and AI specialists to deliver work that earns attention.
Our Approach to the AI Video Creative Process
Indigo Indigo handles every step of the AI video production process. Here’s how a typical project kicks off. every step in the process of creating your brand video. Here’s an idea of how a typical project might kick off.
Creative Development
Whether you arrive with a finished concept or a blank page, our creative team helps you define objectives, audience, and message. We then map out which parts of the production are best served by traditional filmmaking, which by AI generation, and which by a hybrid approach.
Script and Visuals
Our art directors build the visual world of your video, developing style frames, mood boards, and AI-generated concept art so you can see the look and tone before production begins. Scripts are crafted for the medium, whether that’s a 6-second social cut or a 3-minute brand film.
Budgets and Approvals
The AI landscape changes monthly. We choose the right combination of models, platforms, and proprietary workflows for your specific project, balancing quality, cost, turnaround, and rights considerations.
The AI Video Production Process
Every Indigo project moves through three core phases, whether the final video is fully AI-generated, fully live-action, or somewhere in between.
Pre-Production We meet with your team to define the goal, audience, and call to action. We review existing brand assets, identify which scenes will be live-action vs. AI-generated, and assemble the right crew and AI toolkit. Pre-production also covers prompt engineering, reference gathering, model selection, and rights clearances for any training data or likenesses involved.
Production For live-action portions, our crew and equipment hit the location: cameras, lighting, sound, talent, and direction, all to Indigo’s broadcast-grade standards. For AI-generated portions, our team runs iterative generations, refines prompts, applies style controls, and produces clean plates ready for compositing. Hybrid shoots are coordinated so live-action footage integrates seamlessly with AI elements in post.
Post-Production This is where the magic finalizes. Our editors combine footage, AI-generated assets, motion graphics, music, sound design, and voiceover into a polished final video. AI tools accelerate transcription, color, audio cleanup, and version creation, while human editors make every creative call. You review and approve every cut, and we deliver finished files ready to launch.
It’s a sophisticated process, and we make it feel easy.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About AI Video Production
The answer to this question is, by necessity, “It depends…” At Indigo, we don’t use a cookie-cutter approach to brand video production. We understand that every client is unique, with their own particular objectives, needs, and ideas.
Do you have a solid concept? Or will you need Indigo’s creative development team to craft and shape your Brand Video? Are you planning something big—a location shoot with a large cast and crew with lots of equipment—or something more intimate—a single-camera, one-room shoot with a single actor? Scouting locations, shot breakdown, getting permits and certificates of insurance, and overall logistics are just a few of the factors which affect the pre-production costs of your brand video.
Indigo Productions understands the importance of not skimping on pre-production. Failure to plan during this important phase will exponentially increase the video’s final cost. Key cost factors continue throughout. Special effects, music, sound, and green screen are just a few. And once your brand video is complete, what are your plans for Video Distribution, SEO, and seeding? There’s no sense in spending thousands on a brilliant brand video if no one is going to see it. Indigo will ensure your resources are spent judiciously and within your budget throughout every stage of the process.
Any company interested in creating an emotional connection with its audience should take advantage of the incredible power of video marketing. Here are a few cases where the right brand video can make a huge impact:
Small businesses—they may not be in the same league as national or global chains, but on the web, all businesses are on equal footing. A brilliant, carefully targeted video campaign will garner far better results than an ad in the local gazette.
Software as a Service (SaaS)—SaaS products can be complicated to explain, and are often designed for a niche and difficult-to-reach audience. A brand video can create a memorable anthem about the problem your software can solve.
Non-profit Organizations—Successful brand videos are about making strong emotional connections with their audience. Non-profit organizations can use brand videos to elevate their cause and make viewers understand the importance of every contribution.
Healthcare—The mission of healthcare brands is an excellent fit for an aspirational brand video, helping investors, physicians, and even patients understand the importance of your product and approach, as well as the possibilities, timelines, and considerations, in an empowering way.
There can be some overlap, but brand videos typically focus on the mission, vision, and voice of the brand, building excitement for the greater purpose. Commercials are more acquisition-oriented, driving conversions for a specific product or service.
Your brand tells people who you are and what you stand for. It signifies quality and is ideal for strengthening the bond with your fans or making new ones. And it’s a great vehicle for introducing new ideas or products.
