Most SaaS teams run a teaser video campaign as one video. It goes out on a Tuesday, collects a few likes, and the launch lands a week later to the same quiet feed.
But a teaser campaign is a sequence. Week one makes them notice. Week two makes them uneasy. Week three makes them curious. Launch day gives them the answer.
So the real question isn't what goes in your teaser. It's what you reveal, and when.
The short answer: a teaser video campaign runs in four stages, one video each. Mood Shot sets a feeling with no features. Contrast Cut puts the buyer's old way next to the new one. Keyhole shows one screen, not the tour. Reveal Day names what's new and asks for one action. The 30 teaser videos below are sorted by the stage they fit, so you can build a four-week sequence from them.
Planning a teaser campaign?
Talk to the Advids team about style, budget and timeline before you script week one. Decide what each video reveals before anyone opens an editor.
If nobody knows you're coming, open with a feeling, not a feature.
A film poster goes up months before anyone sees a scene. It sells a mood, and the mood sends people looking for the trailer. Your first teaser does that job for your release.
I call it the Mood Shot: a short video of look, sound and one line, with no feature list. Seven examples.
Notion concept teaser video
Notion's 16-second “What is Notion?” video answers its own title with a feeling, not a feature list. The promise is order for people buried in digital clutter.
What works here:
No feature tour. The video sells the relief of an organized workspace and lets the product's look carry it.
Clean visuals and a calm tone make the promise of order visible in the pacing itself.
It speaks to one shared pain, digital clutter, so almost any knowledge worker sees themselves in it.
The move: Pick the one feeling your release creates and cut every feature line from week one. If a viewer can name the feeling but not a single feature, it passed.
Taskade vertical teaser video
Taskade's 19-second vertical teaser introduces AI agents you can build, train and deploy. Abstract neon motion graphics stand in for work nobody could film.
What works here:
Glowing abstract shapes picture invisible work, like workflow generation and research.
Rapid cuts sync with short on-screen lines. Each line carries one capability, so the list moves fast.
It speaks to teams and to individuals at once, which widens who stops scrolling.
The move: If your product is AI or back-end work, give it one visual language in week one and keep it to launch day. Pass test: a viewer could spot your next teaser from a single frame.
Arm Everywhere teaser video
Arm's 15-second “Arm Everywhere” teaser is a dark, ambient CGI landscape and a few words of type. Music carries it. There's no voiceover and no product shot.
What works here:
The title is the whole message. Two words, set in clean type, over a landscape you can't place.
Dark ambient lighting makes the piece feel premium before any claim is made.
At 15 seconds, it fits a pre-roll slot or a social feed without a cutdown.
The move: Write your campaign's two-word theme before anything else, then make week one carry only that. If you need a sentence to explain it, the theme isn't ready.
Sprout Social kinetic type teaser
Sprout Social's “Influencer Marketing Reimagined” spot introduces AI search features with kinetic typography and bold brand design. It runs on music alone.
What works here:
Type does the talking, the same way the best animated typography ads work. The claim lands without a narrator.
The title claims a category shift, “Reimagined,” before it names a single feature.
Brand color and layout stay constant, so the spot reads as Sprout Social even with the sound off.
The move: If you're teasing a shift in how buyers work, put the new word for it on screen in big type. Pass test: a muted viewer can repeat your headline.
Zeekr x Valeo lighting reveal teaser
Zeekr and Valeo tease a programmable LED matrix that turns a car's front into a display. The reveal is slow on purpose: light patterns first, the full picture later.
What works here:
The light is the product, so the light is the star. Animated patterns and custom sequences play across the car's face.
Two benefits share the screen: personal design and better visibility on the road.
A gradual reveal, a futuristic score and short on-screen lines build intrigue in 27 seconds.
The move: Tease your one signature visual in pieces before you show it whole. In a software product, that's the screen people will remember. Pass test: viewers ask to see the full frame.
TSG GEO helmet reveal video
TSG's GEO helmet video starts in a dark city at night and ends on a full 3D unveiling. Not a single word is spoken.
What works here:
Mystery first. Night streets and partial shots hold the product back until the 3D animation lands.
Specs arrive as on-screen text: “290 G LIGHT,” “OPTIMAL FITTING” and “10 VENTS WITH AIR FLOW CHANNELS.”
The setting is the use case. Reflective straps and a removable LED back light answer the night-ride worry.
The move: Set your teaser where your buyer's problem lives, then let specs arrive as short text cards. For software, that setting is the buyer's own messy screen. Pass test: muted, it still makes sense.
ANZ credit card short teaser
ANZ's 7-second “You can tap into more rewards” spot is one idea in bold color: tap the card, get the treat.
What works here:
A hand taps the card. Animated rewards pop. That's the whole story.
Bold colors and crisp kinetic animation make it read in a glance.
Seven seconds is cutdown length, close to the size of 6-second bumper ads on YouTube.
The move: Cut a 7-second version of every Mood Shot for retargeting. One action, one reward. If it needs a second scene, it's too long for this slot.
Stage 2 · Contrast Cut
If buyers don't feel the problem yet, show the old way before the new one.
Week one made them notice you. Week two has to make them uneasy about how they work today.
A dentist shows you the X-ray before the treatment plan. Your buyer's current workflow is that X-ray. I call it the Contrast Cut: the old way and the new way in one video, old way first. Eight examples.
Modeliks AI business plan teaser
Modeliks sells AI business planning for real estate. The video puts the old way, weeks of work, next to the new one: a plan in hours.
What works here:
The contrast is in time units every founder counts. Weeks against hours needs no explaining.
The CEO speaks straight to camera, which makes the claim a promise from a person, not a logo.
AI guides each step and suggests improvements, so speed doesn't read as cutting corners.
The move: Put your buyer's current task time next to yours, in the same unit. If the two numbers don't fit on one screen, simplify them until they do.
Athennian legal entity teaser
Athennian's video puts its contrast in the title: legal entity management, “from Out of Control to Under Control.” Scattered documents become one organized structure.
What works here:
Chaos is shown, not described. A cascade of loose legal documents and data points opens the video.
Then the order. The pieces settle into a cloud-based structure, and the interface takes over.
Real tasks prove it: report generation and document records such as Articles of Incorporation.
The move: Open on the mess your buyer lives with, then let the same pieces snap into place. Pass test: the before and the after use the same objects.
Twilio Frontline intro video
Twilio Frontline is a mobile app for sales teams. The video opens on an airplane, the old travel-heavy way to sell, then moves the relationship to a phone.
What works here:
One object stands for the old way. The plane says travel-heavy selling faster than any line of copy.
The new way is specific: SMS, WhatsApp and voice calls, with CRM data beside each conversation.
It's a pre-built, programmable app teams can download and use right away, which answers the rollout question.
The move: Find one object that stands for your buyer's old way and open on it. If you need a caption to explain the object, pick another.
Snyk developer security video
Snyk frames the tension every software team feels: shipping faster means more risk. Its answer is security inside the tools developers already use.
What works here:
The contrast is growth against risk. Exponential growth in code becomes exponential risk on screen.
The fix lives in familiar places: IDEs, repos and pipelines, with real-time scans, fix advice and automated pull requests.
Both buyers get a scene. Developers keep moving, and security teams get visibility, controls and policies.
The move: If two teams argue about your category, show each side's pain, then one screen both accept. Pass test: neither team looks like the villain.
OpenShift evolution video
OpenShift's video opens on a question: “What if your best ideas could just move forward without the need to manage everything along the way?” Then it traces the platform to agentic AI.
What works here:
The old way is named in the title: “Stop Fighting Your Infrastructure.”
A timeline does the work. Developers focus on code, an ecosystem grows, and vendor lock-in is called a thing of the past.
The tease sits at the end: OpenShift keeps evolving, this time through agentic AI with an intelligent assistant.
The move: End your Contrast Cut on what comes next, not on a recap. If the last line could close any past video of yours, rewrite it.
Shufti liveness audit video
Shufti's video opens with a question compliance teams dread: can you prove every approved liveness check was truly live? Then it names how fraud gets through.
What works here:
The old way gets a list of attacks: replay attacks, injected video streams, virtual cameras and AI-generated faces.
The new way is an audit of historic sessions that runs inside the buyer's own AWS account.
One line answers the data worry before anyone raises it: no face images ever leave the buyer's cloud.
The move: Open on the question your buyer can't answer today. If they can answer it, it isn't your Contrast Cut.
Norton 360 animated teaser
Norton's 31-second animation turns online privacy risk into something you can see: glowing eyes on everyday devices. Norton 360 arrives as the way to keep them out.
What works here:
One image carries the threat. Eyes on a laptop or phone make an abstract risk personal.
The risks are specific: Wi-Fi eavesdropping, webcam breaches and stolen financial details.
No dense tech terms. The animation explains the problem, so the product needs only its name.
The move: Give your buyer's invisible risk one visible symbol and use it in every stage. Pass test: the symbol works without a caption.
Palo Alto Networks Prisma Access Browser video
Palo Alto Networks shows what leaks today and what stops it. Prisma Access Browser blocks sensitive data on its way out of business apps.
What works here:
Over 1000 data classifiers mask sensitive fields automatically, such as credit card numbers in a CRM.
Copy and paste of confidential data into unapproved AI apps gets blocked on screen.
Printing, screen sharing and custom watermarks close the other exits, one by one.
The move: Show the exact moment data, money or time leaks today, then the moment it doesn't. If your product stops a leak, show the leak first.
Stage 3 · Keyhole
If they're curious, show one screen, not the whole tour.
Now they feel the gap. Next they want proof the product is real.
A bakery window shows one cake, not the whole menu. Your third teaser is that window: one screen of your software product, lit well. I call it the Keyhole: one screen, one feature or one close-up, held long enough to want the rest. Seven examples.
Linear Code Intelligence reveal
Linear's “Introducing Code Intelligence” is a 34-second, dark-mode reveal of one feature and its workflow. No voiceover. Music and interface motion carry it.
What works here:
One feature, one video. The title names it, and nothing else competes for attention.
Dark-mode interface motion matches the product, so the teaser looks like the software it sells.
At 34 seconds, it's short enough to post as a standalone clip in a release week.
The move: Give each feature in your release its own short Keyhole instead of one long tour. Pass test: the video's title names one feature, not three.
PerkinElmer Spotlight Aurora teaser
PerkinElmer's teaser for the Spotlight Aurora FTIR microscope says its job in the title: “Get a Closer Look.” It's a 30-second 3D showcase of the instrument, set to music.
What works here:
The invitation is literal. The viewer is asked to lean in on a single instrument.
High-end 3D rendering shows the product before most buyers could see one in person.
No voiceover. The product's shape does the talking, the way most 3D product CGI videos work.
The move: If buyers can't touch your product yet, give them a close-up they can't get anywhere else. For software, that's one interaction at full screen. Pass test: they see a detail they've never seen.
AppFolio workflow editor teaser
AppFolio Property Manager's teaser zooms in on one tool: a smart workflow editor. Drag-and-drop blocks turn tasks like unit turns and work orders into clear steps.
What works here:
One screen, many jobs. Modular blocks show how multi-step procedures get built.
A person makes it real. A new associate, Jennifer, gets step-by-step guidance on mobile.
Automatic triggers and alerts close the loop, so the workflow runs without a manager chasing it.
The move: Pick the one screen where your product saves the most clicks and tease only that. If the clip shows a menu bar, crop tighter.
Wonolo overview teaser
Wonolo connects businesses with local workers. Its 34-second overview shows the core flow in clean interface animation: post a job, pick workers, approve the work.
What works here:
Posting a job is shown as form-filling and category picks, so ease is seen, not claimed.
Managers review worker profiles before shifts and approve finished jobs in the same app.
Favorites and recurring teams hint at the long-term payoff: a reliable pool of workers.
The move: Tease the one flow your buyer runs every week, start to finish, in under 40 seconds. If it needs a second flow, save that for another video.
Process Street workflow teaser
Process Street's teaser shows checklists of every size, from office cleaning to information security audits. Branching steps make each process easy to follow.
What works here:
Range in one glance. A simple checklist and a security audit share the same screen style.
A world map shows tasks routed to the right people in different places.
The payoff is visible: tasks marked done, a status of “On Track” and confetti at the end.
The move: End your Keyhole on the screen that shows the job finished. Pass test: a viewer can point to the moment the work is done.
EagleView Connect Explorer teaser
EagleView's teaser for Connect Explorer shows aerial property imagery in a browser. Professionals measure and compare properties from the office instead of driving out to each one.
What works here:
Three views on one platform: oblique, straight-down ortho and orthomosaic imagery.
Measurement tools cover length, height, area, elevation and slope, with historical imagery to compare.
It runs in a browser on computers and tablets, with no software to install.
The move: Show one measurement your buyer takes by hand today, done on your screen. Pass test: they can name the trip or task it replaces.
ContractPodAi platform teaser
ContractPodAi pictures its legal platform as a building. Each floor is a layer, from AI tools at the base to full applications on top.
What works here:
The building turns a product map into one picture legal teams can follow.
AI features take center stage: automated document analysis and workflow design.
One phrase repeats, “one legal platform,” across contract lifecycle, risk and regulatory work.
The move: If your product is a platform, tease one floor at a time across the campaign. Pass test: each video shows one layer, and the last shows the whole building.
Stage 4 · Reveal Day
If it's launch day, name what's new, who it's for and the next step.
The teasers built a question. Launch day answers it, plainly.
A wedding invitation names the date, the place and what to bring. Your launch video does the same for your buyer. I call it the Reveal Day: the full name, the job it handles and one action. Eight examples.
HubSpot ChatGPT connector announcement
HubSpot announces its CRM deep research connector with ChatGPT in 30 seconds, as the title promises. Kinetic type and interface motion show the integration.
What works here:
The headline is a first. HubSpot calls it the first CRM deep research connector with ChatGPT.
The length is part of the promise. “Explained in 30 Seconds” sets the viewer's time budget up front.
Two known brands share the screen, so the buyer gets the news from logos they already trust.
The move: Put the news, and how long it takes to explain, in your launch video's title. If the title needs a subtitle to make sense, cut it down.
Atlassian agents in Jira launch
Atlassian's “Introducing agents in Jira” uses clean 2D motion graphics to show where AI agents sit in a team: on an organization tree, next to people.
What works here:
The picture answers the first buyer question about AI agents: where do they fit in my team?
Repeated interface transitions keep each step in the same visual rhythm.
It runs on music, so the motion has to carry the whole explanation.
The move: On Reveal Day, show where your new feature sits in the buyer's team or workflow, not just what it does. Pass test: a manager can point to the box it lives in.
Docusign Agents launch video
Docusign's launch video makes its promise in the title: “Complex Contract Workflows, Handled.” Interface motion shows the AI working through contracts and dialogs.
What works here:
The title is the pitch: the product name, then the job it takes off the buyer's desk.
Dialogs on screen show the AI's steps, so the buyer sees the work, not just the result.
At 36 seconds, it fits a launch post, an email and a sales follow-up.
The move: Write your launch title as product name plus the job it handles. If a buyer can't guess the job from the title, rewrite it.
Alibaba Cloud Wan launch spot
Alibaba Cloud's 22-second spot for Wan promises one change: scripts become broadcast-quality video in minutes. It names what disappears, too.
What works here:
The first line is the promise: “Turn ideas into high impact video fast.”
Features come as a list: native audio, multilingual voiceovers and realistic visuals.
Then the old costs, struck out one by one: “no studios, no delays, no extra costs.” It closes on an invitation to try Wan.
The move: List the three costs your release removes, as short “no” lines. Pass test: each one is something your buyer pays for today.
Goose v1.25.0 release video
The open-source agent Goose announces version 1.25.0 with “it's a big one,” then leads with its headline feature: macOS sandboxing.
What works here:
One headline first. Every desktop command runs in a native sandbox, with file, network and write access scoped.
Then the smaller wins: one summon extension replaces two systems, and MCP apps render dashboards and forms in chat.
Pain gets a line too: “No more digging through YAML.” It ends with where to upgrade.
The move: Rank your release notes and lead with one headline feature. If your launch video gives five features equal time, it has no headline.
Opik on Google Cloud launch video
Google Cloud introduces Opik, an AI observability platform created by Comet. It helps teams build, evaluate and optimize LLM systems.
What works here:
One worked example carries it: two chatbot prompts tested on a golden evaluation dataset.
LLM-as-a-judge scores the answers automatically, so the buyer sees how the decision gets made.
It ends on one next step: “Get started today at comet.com.”
The move: Put one worked example in your Reveal Day video, with real inputs and a result. Pass test: a buyer could repeat it in a trial.
Cisco Duo MSP program video
Cisco Duo's video for managed service providers reveals the deal, not just the product. It reframes Duo as more than multi-factor authentication, then spells out the terms.
What works here:
A pizza analogy widens the frame. MFA is one slice of a bigger access management offer.
Features follow fast: Push Phishing Protection, Passwordless, Trusted Endpoints and Risk-Based Authentication.
The terms are on screen: pay-as-you-go, no minimums or fees, billed monthly by user count, with one console for every customer.
The move: If your buyer resells or rolls out your product, reveal the terms on launch day. Pass test: they know what it costs them before the call.
Textron Aviation announcement video
Textron Aviation and NetJets announce an order for up to 1,500 Cessna Citation business jets. NetJets also becomes launch customer for the new Citation Ascend.
What works here:
The number is the headline. “1,500 Cessna Citations” lands on screen as the reveal.
History backs it: a 40-year relationship between the two companies.
Aerial shots, cabin interiors and an orchestral score make the deal feel like an event.
The move: If your launch has a customer number or a named first customer, make it the reveal. For a SaaS release, that's your design partner. Pass test: the name is on screen, not only in the voiceover.
Pick your stage
Which stage is your teaser campaign in?
The short answer: ask what your buyer knows right now. Nothing yet? Use a Mood Shot. Knows you, but not why it matters? Contrast Cut. Curious? Keyhole. Ready to act? Reveal Day. Run them in that order, one a week, and never skip straight to the reveal.
Now go back to the single teaser posted on a Tuesday. It tried to be all four stages at once. So it set no mood, showed no contrast, opened no keyhole and revealed nothing new.
The move: map your next release onto four weeks. Week 1, Mood Shot. Week 2, Contrast Cut. Week 3, Keyhole. Launch day, Reveal Day. Script the last video first.
One teaser asks for attention. Four teasers in order earn it.
FAQ
Teaser Video Campaign Ideas FAQ
What is a teaser video campaign?
A teaser video campaign is a series of short videos released in order, before and on launch day. Each one reveals a little more. On this page, that's four stages: a Mood Shot, a Contrast Cut, a Keyhole and a Reveal Day. Arm's 15-second “Arm Everywhere” works as a week-one Mood Shot. Docusign's launch video is a Reveal Day.
How many videos should a teaser campaign have?
Four is a clean default: one per stage. A big release can add a Keyhole for each major feature. A small feature release can go from a Contrast Cut straight to the reveal. But one video posted once isn't a campaign. It's an announcement with no build-up.
How long should each teaser video be?
Match the length to the stage. On this page, the Mood Shots run 7 to 52 seconds, and 5 of the 7 are under 30. The Reveal Day videos run 22 seconds to 1:35, because they carry the full name, the job and the next step.
What should the first teaser in a campaign show?
A feeling, a theme or a signature visual, and no feature list. Notion's 16-second video sells relief from clutter. Zeekr and Valeo show light patterns before the full car. Week one's goal is recognition, so the next video gets watched.
Should a teaser show the product interface?
Not in week one. Show it in week three, one screen at a time. AppFolio's teaser shows only its workflow editor. Linear's shows one feature, Code Intelligence. A full tour belongs after launch, in a demo.
What's the difference between a teaser and a launch announcement?
A teaser holds something back on purpose. A launch announcement holds nothing back: the product name, what it does, who it's for and the next step. In a campaign, the teasers come first and the product announcement video is the last stage.
How do you tease a feature release instead of a new product?
Shrink the campaign. Skip the Mood Shot, because buyers already know your brand. Run one Contrast Cut on the pain the feature removes, one Keyhole on the new screen, then the release video. For launch-specific examples, see these SaaS launch teasers.
Should a teaser campaign include a launch date?
Yes, once you have a date you can keep. Put it in the Keyhole or a short countdown cut, not the Mood Shot. A date gives viewers a reason to come back. A date that slips teaches them to ignore the next one.
Can a teaser campaign work without a voiceover?
Yes. Several Mood Shots here run on music and on-screen text alone: Arm, Sprout Social and TSG. That matters, because feeds often play muted. If a teaser does use a voiceover, add captions so it still works with the sound off.
How do you keep a teaser campaign consistent?
Pick one visual language in week one and keep it to launch day: the same colors, type and symbol. Taskade's neon look and Norton's glowing eyes are signatures you'd spot from one frame. Consistency lets each teaser borrow attention from the last one.
How do you measure a teaser campaign?
Measure each stage against its own job. Mood Shots: reach and repeat viewers. Contrast Cuts: watch time and comments. Keyholes: clicks to a waitlist or demo page. Reveal Day: sign-ups or trials. If one stage misses, fix that video, not the whole campaign.
What call to action belongs in each teaser?
One per stage, and a small one early. Week one asks for a follow. Week two asks for a comment or a reply. Week three asks for a waitlist sign-up. Reveal Day asks for the trial or the demo, like Opik's “Get started today” close.
Patterns from the analysis
Teaser Video Campaign Best Practices
Five of the videos above were broken down from their full transcripts: OpenShift, Shufti, Alibaba Cloud's Wan, Goose and Opik on Google Cloud. Four patterns showed up. Five is a small sample, so read each count as what these five did, not as market data.
Question Open
Should a teaser open on a question?
Observation
OpenShift opens on “What if your best ideas could just move forward without the need to manage everything along the way?” Shufti opens by asking whether every approved liveness check was truly live. Wan, Goose and Opik open on a claim or on the news itself.
Data
2 of 5 opened on a question. 3 of 5 opened on a claim or the release.
The move
Use a question in the Contrast Cut, where the buyer should feel the gap. Use a plain claim on Reveal Day, where they want the news.
Old Cost
Should a launch video name what it replaces?
Observation
Wan strikes out “no studios, no delays, no extra costs.” Goose says “No more digging through YAML.” Shufti lists the attacks older selfie controls miss. OpenShift names fighting infrastructure and vendor lock-in. Opik describes what it adds, not what it replaces.
Data
4 of 5 named the old way or its cost.
The move
Name one chore your buyer does today, in their words. A named chore beats a general promise of ease.
Control Line
Should a teaser say where the buyer keeps control?
Observation
Shufti says no face images ever leave the buyer's cloud. Goose runs every command in a sandbox and ships signed provenance with each release artifact. OpenShift promises sovereign control and updates on your terms. Wan and Opik don't address control.
Data
3 of 5 addressed control or data safety.
The move
If your buyer's security team will ask, answer in the video. One line on where data stays can save a meeting.
Next Step
Should every launch video end on a next step?
Observation
Wan closes on an invitation to try it now. Goose ends with where to upgrade. Opik ends with “Get started today at comet.com.” OpenShift ends on a promise about the future. Shufti ends on a tagline.
Data
3 of 5 ended on a specific next step.
The move
End every Reveal Day video on one action and one place to take it. A tagline can close a Mood Shot. It can't close a launch.
How to plan
Where to use your teaser video campaign
Each stage has a home. Put the video where the buyer is at that stage.
Social feeds. Mood Shots and 7-second cutdowns, built to work muted. These social media teasers show the format.
Email. Pair each video with a short note to your list, the way teaser email campaigns build toward a date.
Your launch page. Keyhole clips above the waitlist form, then the Reveal Day video once you go live.
Sales follow-ups. The Contrast Cut, sent to open deals before launch.
Inside the product. For a feature release, the Keyhole plays where the feature will appear.
A 4-week teaser video campaign plan
Plan backward from launch day. Write the Reveal Day script first, then decide what each earlier week is allowed to show.
Week 1, Mood Shot. 7 to 20 seconds. One feeling, one theme, no features.
Week 2, Contrast Cut. 30 to 90 seconds. The old way first, then a hint of the new.
Week 3, Keyhole. Under 40 seconds per feature. One screen each. Add the date if it's fixed.
Launch day, Reveal Day. The full name, the job it handles, one worked example and one action.
Release them in that order. Each video should make the next one more interesting, not repeat it. For the rest of the launch, a launch marketing plan covers pricing, channels and timing.
One shoot, four teaser videos
You don't need four productions. Plan one, and cut it four ways.
Design the signature visual first. It becomes the Mood Shot and the end card of every later video.
Build the old-way scenes in the same style, for the Contrast Cut.
Capture each key screen at full resolution, for the Keyholes.
Record the Reveal Day voiceover last, once the earlier cuts are locked.
One look across four videos is what makes viewers connect week three to week one.
Teaser video campaign production process
Every teaser campaign runs through the same three stages. Knowing them keeps a launch date from slipping.
Pre-production. Set the launch date, the four stages and what each may reveal. Then the script, style frames, budget and timeline. A B2B SaaS launch checklist lines up everything that isn't video.
Production. Design or shoot the signature visual, the old-way scenes and the product screens in one pass.
Post-production. Cut four videos plus short versions for each platform, add captions, and schedule them a week apart. Study a few product teaser videos before you lock the edit.
