Installation video FAQ
What should an installation video include?
The tools first, then each step in the order the installer does it, on one consistent view of the product. FloorMuffler's video shows 3 tools as badges, then lays the underlayment in overlapping strips on one isometric patch of subfloor, marks the cut with a dashed line and drops the planks on top.
Should an installation video be 2D, 3D or live action?
2D diagrams suit simple installs a homeowner does once. 3D suits parts that lock, click or hide inside a housing: Legrand's LINKEO C connector builds itself around a cable in 3D. Live action suits work on large equipment, where the installer needs to recognize the real machine in front of them.
Can you make an installation video before the product ships?
Yes, in 3D or 2D. A 3D model built from CAD files needs only the design. Legrand's install claims, from "Toolless" connectors to "Validate your installation at a glance", were built in 3D from Legrand's CAD files, so no finished rack had to be shot on camera.
Should an installation video sell the product too?
For a DIY product, yes, briefly. Buyers must want the result before they learn to fit it. FloorMuffler's video spends its first 26 seconds on rooms where people drum, dance, sleep and read, then moves to the install. For installer audiences, skip the pitch and start on the parts.
What do I need to send for an installation video?
Send the install manual or steps, CAD files or product photos, the tools required and any part numbers that must appear on screen. Add the mistakes your support team sees most, so the video can show each check. For field equipment, send the alarm screens operators see in the cab or panel.
How much does installation video production cost?
A 2D installation video on diagrams sits in Clean Design or Engaging Visuals at Advids, a fixed fee from $1,000 to $2,000 for 60 seconds. A 3D install guide built from CAD files sits in Advanced Animation, $3,000 to $4,500. Live-action work on equipment prices as Hybrid Approach, $4,500 to $6,000.
