EM Productions was really wonderful to work with. They came to us with amazing ideas right off the bat. We had multiple meetings with them and they were able to come up with a creative concept we felt fit the idea we had for our resort and the type of customer we would like to attract visually, the film is beautiful and better than any of us could've imagined when our owner saw the film, he said "wow that looks great."

EM Productions, is really professional and straightforward to work with. They are very well organized, and you can tell. They were extremely experienced in creating creative content, whether it be photography or video production. They know the best time of the day to shoot the image to get the feeling that you want to have in your video and photos, and they are very thoughtful and will affect how our customer sees our brand. 
Making a video or a photo shoot causes a lot of stress to the resort team and the management, but we found working with EM Productions things went really smoothly, and everybody knew their responsibilities after the job was finished, I could see that our teams were not stretched to their limits like we normally have experienced in the past with other productions. 
This makes everyone's job much easier, and I appreciate their thoughts on reducing their impact on our resort.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Our brand was opening up a new resort in Vietnam and needed to produce not just a commercial branded video but also multiple social media cuts for the video campaign with unique visuals that make our brand stand out. The campaign ranged from multiple social media reels and online advertising shorts featuring the resort villas and the experiences the resort offers in Nha Trang, Vietnam. 
EM Productions was responsible for implementing the production and style as provided by the agency but also modifying the creative brief with copywriting and demographic targeting. We worked with EM Productions to produce over 56 different target videos from this one production.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

This campaign ran for three months before the 2023 summer season, and we saw an 20% increase in reservations and sales of the property from the previous year. Our property owner is very happy, as we have seen a significant increase from before the campaign started. 
We are also finding that many of our customers are referring to the video they saw and wanting to have similar experiences, all of which helps promote the services and profitability of our property, which was exactly the reason for implementing this video production campaign.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The project was managed much more effectively and efficiently than other video productions we had done in the past. In fact, this is the first time I have seen a video be made almost exactly as it was planned, and we were impressed. On the day of the shoot, everything run on schedule, as EM Productions had prepared our local resort team and the locations in advance so that we could be successful in our planning and execution for the post-production. Everything was delivered on time and as agreed.

Not only are they creative, but they are extremely well organized and a pleasure to communicate with. Everything in the project is transparent and according to the timeline everyone laid out; 
I could not ask for a better partner to help reduce the stress of organizing, a video production at a very high-end resort. Everything was smooth and done in a courteous and professional manner. I look forward to working with them again.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

We hired EM Productions as a Ho Chi Minh City video production company to create a branding video for Simpson Strong Tie that involved collaboration between our US team, local Vietnamese teams, and internal stakeholders. Their team handled production planning, on site coordination, filming, creative direction, and post production throughout the project. The production involved capturing operations, workplace culture, team collaboration, and branded visuals that aligned with our company standards. EM Productions managed communication between multiple teams extremely well and helped keep the production running smoothly from beginning to end. The final deliverables included a fully edited branding video along with supporting visual assets for internal and external company use.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The final video exceeded expectations and was very well received internally across multiple teams. It gave us a stronger visual representation of our operations and culture in Vietnam and created a professional branding asset that can be used across presentations, recruitment, and company communications. The overall production process was also highly successful, with strong collaboration between international and local teams throughout the project. Need to add something measurable. Since implementing the video, we've had a CTR to our website and additional services increased by 75% and we've had incoming sales leads directly correlated to the video increase by 41%. Both of these metrics were captured when we implemented the video on our socials and website.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management was excellent throughout the entire process. Trang and the EM Productions team were professional, organized, and very easy to work with. Communication was always clear, and they handled coordination between all teams smoothly. They were responsive to feedback, attentive to details, and made sure everything stayed on track. Their professionalism and support played a major role in making the production successful.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They brought a creative solutions that target our customers so that they feel heard and that they can see that we can solve their problem and that's what EM Productions does and actually is what attracted us to them was that they are not just a normal Video production company. They actually are loo to meet the metrics that our companies need and I think that really is something that makes them stand out a lot of video production companies will talk about storytelling and how they care and listen about you, but the reality is is that the proof is in the pudding when you see the result of the video being implemented and that is due to them listening, researching and then coming up with a creative concept that actually makes an impact. The final branding video turned out even better than we had hoped, and the experience filming in Vietnam with EM Productions was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a professional Vietnam video production company that can manage international productions at a high standard.
