Memoria – Training

Posted on by cr

Memoria

Memoria is one of the largest independent funeral companies in the UK, and we have produced many projects with them, such as this training / induction video. Whilst the video is for internal use, it runs for 2+ hours, and saves the training team countless hours and provides a more engaging form of  induction for new staff, by sharing the companies history, values, services and more. Video is private and for internal viewing only.

Training Videos

Training videos are a crucial part of many businesses and serve many purposes. One of the forgotten purposes can be showcasing company culture and the internal brand, by setting the tone and personality for the new starter. Alongside this, they can be more engaging than in-person training, and far less time consuming, lasting for years and being re-purposed.

Attention spans are short – we ensure you get your message across effectively. Your brand stories can directly or in-directly showcase your organisation, explain how you make a difference, and focus on your unique selling points, in order to achieve more sales and increase your brand awareness. We’ll ensure we do the competitor analysis, and brainstorm ideas to ensure you stand out in video.

Deputy CEO of Memoria

“Black Swan were professional throughout. They shot a 2-hour long training video for us which had to incorporate hours of old footage from 80s and 90s television programmes and then edit that into a long piece to camera which looked to replicate an in-person training session. I was particularly impressed by the work ethic displayed in identifying the older footage which was not an easy task. We then went through several edits in post-production – all of which were managed well and in a timely fashion. I would have no issue in recommending Black Swan to any organisation – large or small."

Clive Thomas

Managing Director at Watkins & Gunn

“We wanted videos to bring our business to life online as sometimes still images and text just don’t really get the brand and our message across. So, I approached Black Swan Productions to help us.

They were very approachable and quickly understood the brief, and we formed a plan to deliver a bespoke video. Arrangements were very flexible, and we filmed at our offices. There were plenty of challenges as we as lawyers are not the most natural in front of camera, but they used their experience to put everyone at their ease and made sure that we had the perfect setting and backdrop.

Black Swan delivered a high-quality product that we’re really happy with and I would highly recommend them. As a result, we’ve chosen to use them on a number of other projects and have been equally delighted with the outcome.

We have already started to receive enquiries from potential clients that have seen the video. I can highly recommend Black Swan Productions for any video production services!”
