Technical Films - Educational video content by mecom vision

Technical films use sound and vision to explain complex technical processes, such as the repair of machines or their mode of operation.

Like a user manual in moving images, they explain technical processes but are much more effective than a written document. Technical details can be seen in pictures and correlations are explained in detail.

Technical knowledge simply explained

Technical films either answer very specific questions or solve user problems. At the same time, they show what technical features your product has.

The viewer learns to apply innovations more quickly and can acquire new knowledge without frustration.

The motto here is: What I see, I can understand. That’s exactly where technical films come in and translate the complex service literature into moving images. They illustrate abstract topics in a vivid way.

Explaining how to do it
with Technical Videos

In the case of difficult content requiring explanation, it is particularly important that the viewer can follow the video descriptions despite the complexity.

The complex information in the technical video should be prepared in such a way that the viewer can easily access it. This not only involves the choice of the correct technical terms, but also a skillful didactic preparation of the content. In this way, the topic can be made comprehensively tangible via image and sound.

A mixture of real and animated film is ideal for visual implementation. Real footage illustrates the visual properties of a wide variety of components and shows, for example, the correct handling during a repair.

As soon as it gets into detail, even the smallest components can be shown in CAD-based 3D animations. Depending on the topic, the focus can be set differently.

Self-explanatory or commented video instructions

Technical films can be self-explanatory. Then no speaker commentary, the so-called Voice Over, has to support the image level. However, if a large amount of information is involved, a voice over can help to condense the information. A competent and calm voice from the off as well as subtitles or text insertions then comment on the image level and the technical video becomes a real help for the viewer in technical questions!

Technical videos help everyone who needs to understand technology. Technical videos in the aftersales area are particularly popular. Employees of workshops, fleet operators, machine builders or suppliers can quickly expand their knowledge.

But technical video instructions can also be helpful for end users. A comprehensive supply of tutorials on technical issues is far more cost-effective than regular training courses.

Expert knowledge in the Video Content Portal

The virtual operating instructions can be used indefinitely. Access is via individual server solutions or an independent Content Portal completely location-independent.

Of course, the video content can also be supplied via portable storage media such as USB sticks.

You can thus offer your customers and service providers real added value, pass on your expert knowledge directly and prevent excessive demands due to product innovations.

Your customers and service providers easily get an authentic overview of the functions and benefits of your products. Better usability is impossible!

Addressing different senses with Technical Videos

In technical films, several senses of the audience are addressed at once. This is ensured by the combination of text, sound, music, and moving images. According to studies, this is particularly important in learning.

Since each person is influenced to different degrees by different senses, you achieve both auditory and visual learning types.

Multisensory activation is therefore indispensable for your technical video. After all, your customers should learn something through your film!

Summarized again: Technical videos are a pleasant alternative to operating instructions and service literature.

The complicated contents are easier to understand and therefore the users trust your brand and give preference to you over your competitors.

And now?
How is my technical film made?

Good technical films need one thing above all else: good research. In order to be able to explain your products in detail and factually correct, we must first understand exactly what your technology can do. And that’s why we work closely with you!

You explain your technology in detail, which problems or questions can arise during operation and which topics or functions should be covered. The expertise of your employees is often of decisive importance. They know your products very well. Through direct customer contact, they know the user’s questions.

Then we want to overcome these hurdles of understanding with the help of the technical video!

Didactic and creative conception from one source

The conception phase follows. We think our way into the technology and work on the optimal explanation. Since we look at your products and services from the outside, we recognize factors that require explanation ourselves and can find ideal solutions. In this way, we also simplify complex topics and facts so that your customers can understand them.

And again, everything

STEP BY STEP

Technical films should reflect complex technical issues. That much is clear. The way in which content is explained differs from video to video. And so the respective production duration and the corresponding costs vary from film to film.

Prices for Technical Videos

At the beginning of every calculation, we need to know how you want your technical video to look like. For this video format, a lot of work, time and costs are involved in the editorial preparatory work. Complex animations can also be a cost factor.

You can choose from numerous options. Accordingly, you need to think about the following questions:

In what detail should technical products be demonstrated?
Which animations, motion graphics and sound design do you have in mind?
Should your technical film also be used internationally? If so, then you need to realize voice-overs or subtitles in different languages.

How long does the production take?

Of course, there are several working hours behind all these decisions and the individual production steps. After more than 30 years of moving image production, we know that the production of a first-class technical video takes about four to eight weeks.

And now we ask you: What do you want to show? We look forward to working with you and creating your technical videos. Once we have agreed on the initial content, we will be happy to inform you about the estimated production time of your special video.

Also with regard to the costs of a technical film, attention to detail and process steps are of particular importance. In general, the more scenes and animations you want to create, the more detailed your technical film, the higher the production costs.

We will give you an initial cost estimate directly after a first meeting.

After we have thought a little further into your project, you will also receive an individual and non-binding offer for the production of your technical film.
