Video Production Success Stories
Read about how Indigo turned complex asks into simple, successful video productions for the following satisfied clients:
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.
— COO
Madame Tussauds loves working with Indigo! We've hired the team for very unique shoots and despite our many crazy asks and sometimes high-pressure environment, they always produce an amazing final product. When we're working with A-list talent to launch new projects or figures, we know we can count on the Indigo team.

Getting Value from Video Production Services
We’ve proven our video production expertise and ability to deliver value across a huge variety of styles and genres. Examples include:
Commercials
It’s essential to engage with the consumer in the correct medium. Fortunately, our vast experience and our unequaled staff ensure we blend knowledge of the industry with a strong creative vision to develop a product specifically targeted to your core audience. We specialize in video production services that hone your message and then drive your value proposition home.
Brand Videos
Showing the world who you are is more important than telling them, and the only way to do that effectively is through a video that presents a true brand vision. Our brand videos communicate the core behind your corporation so that the audience knows exactly who you are and what you do better than the competition.
Pitch Videos
Pitching isn’t easy, but it can be easier with the right video support. Whether you want to reinforce the central tenet of your product or simply break the initial awkward barrier so that you can speak less like a salesperson and more like a partner, Indigo provides pitch videos that can translate to profit.
Promotional Videos
Promos must state their relevance to the viewer or risk littering the digital landscape as just another wilted proposition, dead upon arrival. The call to action should be clear, direct, and leave the recipient excited to act. This electric resonance is what our team at Indigo Productions strives for with every pitch, for every project.
Corporate Videos
People sometimes use corporate video presentations as an excuse to catch up on emails or mentally clock out. At Indigo we take that preconception as a challenge. Some of our most powerful video productions were born of the desire to maximize the impact of corporate messaging, eliciting a response from a reluctant audience. At Indigo, we take pride in facing challenges like these head-on.
Red Carpet Events
Hosting a red carpet event? Our experienced mobile camera team has covered hundreds of them. We know how to capture all the best moments and soundbites so our editors can infuse your video with glamor, attitude, and excitement.
