We were rebranding, so we needed a new brand video to explain to our stakeholders our new brand, why we changed, what we stood for, our mission, and our purpose.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Signature Video Group produced a brand video for us that we used to launch our brand. We had a full-day shoot with them. They worked on making sure our scripts were good and developed questions that we could ask the people that we had as part of the video. Signature Video Group helped on the logistical and creative sides in terms of how to storyboard it out, editing, and all the postproduction. They also asked all the questions and guided all the people that were part of the video. The team handled editing and audio mixing.

What is the team composition?

We mainly worked with three teammates from Signature Video Group. One was the account supervisor, and the other two were more involved in creative production and logistics.

How did you come to work with Signature Video Group?

We did an RFP to different production companies based on the services they offered, the reviews we read, and their work with another nonprofit. We chose Signature Video Group because they were able to work within our budget and had experience working with other nonprofits. We liked the style of the videos they had produced for other organizations, which was similar to what we were looking for. They also brought good ideas to the table when we had our initial meetings with them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $20,000–$25,000 CAD.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from September–October 2024.

The video has been published on our YouTube channel, linked on our website, and through email and social media. We’ve seen an increase in views, clicks, and shares. The feedback has been very positive. All of our staff, board, and other stakeholders really thought the video was powerful and inspiring and offered hope to the community.

How did Signature Video Group perform from a project management standpoint?

They were excellent at project management. They kept everything moving and were flexible when things came up. They were always on time and kept in contact with us to keep us updated on how things were progressing. They replied very quickly to any questions we had. We typically communicated via Microsoft Teams and email.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

Samantha and Chris were both great. They made everybody involved in the video feel very comfortable and at ease because not everybody had been on camera before. Samantha and Chris were easy and good to work with and helped everybody through the process.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Signature Video Group's openness and commitment to making the video the best it could be were impressive. They really understood what we wanted out of this project and how we could leverage members of our community in the best way and get those impactful soundbites out of them when we were filming.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I have no complaints about any part of the project. They were great to work with.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

If you have a good idea of the end result, they can help you get there and even make it better than what you envision.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Signature Video Group?

We were looking to raise money for a new fleet of stretchers for our hospital. We had an ambitious goal of replacing at least 15 stretchers.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Signature Video Group helped us produce an amazing video that told the story and life cycle of one stretcher at our hospital. We initially had a couple of preliminary calls with them to discuss our vision, where we wanted it to go, and what we were looking for. They also did a site visit, during which Chris toured our hospital to identify any key areas or barriers for filming. From there, their team proceeded with the work and handled the entire production process, including the filming and editing.

What is the team composition?

We worked with various people from their team, including Chris.

How did you come to work with Signature Video Group?

They were recommended to us by a donor we work with. We decided to work with their team because of their professionalism and passion. After watching their videos, we could really tell that they put their heart and soul into everything they do.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent between $50,000–$100,000 CAD on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

The video helped us raise enough money for 22 new stretchers, which was around $170,000 CAD.

How did Signature Video Group perform from a project management standpoint?

They delivered on time and within budget, and their communication was amazing from start to finish. Overall, they went above and beyond to meet our needs. For communication, we interacted through email, Zoom, and in-person meetings.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to shout out to in this review?

I want to give a shout-out to Chris. He was the one who oversaw the project.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their attention to detail was great, and everyone on their team was delightful to work with. They were easygoing and flexible, which was very important to us. Also, their team really knew how to tell a story in an emotional way that inspired people to give.

Are there any areas they could improve?

They don’t need to improve on anything — they did an incredible job, and we are beyond grateful to them.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

Don’t hesitate to do business with Signature Video Group. You won’t regret it, and you’ll reap the benefits of partnering with them. They'll also be well worth your investment, and you’ll see a huge return.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the creative manager at Mabel’s Labels. We make custom peel-and-stick labels for kids; they can put the labels on their items and gear when they go to daycare or do sports and activities. 

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Signature Video Group?

We were putting out ads for TV and some streaming apps. Given that, our team wanted to produce something of higher quality than what we could create in-house. As a result, we engaged Signature Video Group to help us. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We initially discussed what we envisioned and what we wanted to emulate with our brand in terms of ad style. From there, our team and Signature Video Group had back-and-forth conversations around budget and deliverables. After agreeing on the project’s cost, we had another meeting to discuss the vision and specifics of the ads. 

Their team put together a storyboard for us and created the messaging based on our directions. We locked in the plan and location and had some conversations about the talent. The filming day happened in April 2024, and it was a 12-hour day.

After the filming day, we wrapped up the set, and they did the edits. About three weeks later, they sent us some cuts to review. We saw the first edits, and they gave us two options for the ending. From there, we finalized the payment and paid our final bill. They sent the folder with the assets and everything we needed. 

What is the team composition?

Chris (Founder & Creative Director) was involved in the project from start to finish and was present on the day of filming. Meanwhile, Samantha (Senior Account Manager) coordinated everything, and Rachel (Producer) handled the follow-up processes and postproduction. A camera operator, a sound specialist, and a production assistant also worked with us. 

How did you come to work with Signature Video Group?

We found Signature Video Group on Google and were pleased with the examples on their website. I reached out to them for a free consultation to know if our project was a good fit for their services. 

Then, I had a Zoom call with Chris and Samantha and knew they’d researched our brand. Chris used our products for his kids. I could also tell they asked around about our company and reputation, so they understood who we were. As a result, it was an easy decision to hire them. 

How much have you invested with them?

We invested between $40,000–$50,000 CAD (approximately $29,000–$36,000 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?

The project lasted from February–May 2024. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

The quality of Signature Video Group’s work was fantastic. The video quality was great, and the camera work and editing were excellent. 

How did Signature Video Group perform from a project management standpoint?

The team was prompt. For instance, I tried to come to the location early on the filming day with some coffee and snacks, but they showed up even earlier and were already set up by the time I showed up. They were wonderful to work with and created a positive environment for us.

Moreover, their teammates were open to feedback. My feedback had something to do with how our product was being shown or used, but they were experts in their respective fields. To communicate, we used emails and Zoom calls. 

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

The entire team was fantastic. We were happy with Chris and his vision and understanding of our brand. Meanwhile, Samantha was so attentive and quick to get back at us. She was clear in her emails and in coordinating everything. On the day of the production, Rachel ensured that things were moving along and that everyone was doing their part. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

Signature Video Group came to the initial consultation with extensive knowledge about our brand, which made it truly easy to start the project with them — they’d already researched who we were. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, there weren’t any. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Trust Signature Video Group’s process and vision because they know what they’re doing.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I'm the VP of business development at a medical device design and development company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Signature Video Group?

We needed to create a launch product video for a medical device that my company was building. 

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Signature Video Group produced a 90-second launch video, and the entire process took around  30 days. In the beginning, we had 2–3 calls with the team to discuss our product, our target audience, and my thought process regarding what the video should look like. On the second call with Signature Video Group, we discussed the team's thoughts and reviewed the work they had put together. We went through the pieces the team came up with, describing what would be suitable for the video. 

On our third call with Signature Video Group, the team presented a script on paper stating the video's dialogues and how the story should be laid out. The team allowed me to make changes throughout the process. About ten days after we started the project, the script was confirmed, and Signature Video Group produced the actual video. 

The video involved in-house voiceover, and the team hired a professional person to do it. Once the video was filmed, I could request a couple of changes. Signature Video Group managed the video process from start to finish, including filming and sound and image edition, 

What is the team composition?

We worked with 3–4 teammates from Signature Video Group, including Chris (Founder & Creative Director), Rachel (Producer), and Samantha (Senior Account Manager).

How did you come to work with Signature Video Group?

I first found Signature Video Group through an online search. Before signing with the team, I also had a referral who had worked with them before. After this referral, I decided to engage with Signature Video Group.
How much have you invested with them?

We spent $25,000 on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked with Signature Video Group from April–May 2024.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We presented the video created by Signature Video Group to around 40 people, including our team's executives and persons from our target audience. We could see how the audience's faces lit up when watching the video. The audience was full of very important people who understood exactly the story we were trying to tell and were quite impressed by the final product. 

Signature Video Group's work was top-notch. I didn't request many changes to the final video because their work was excellent. The script and video were perfectly created by the team were perfect, and we found a partner to engage with the next time we require video production services. Signature Video Group's quality was fantastic.

How did Signature Video Group perform from a project management standpoint?

We had agreed on a set price from the beginning of the project, and the team stayed on budget. Signature Video Group completed the project 6-7 days ahead of schedule, and all our communication was via Zoom meetings.
Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?
All of the team was fantastic. Samantha did a great job at coordinating tasks. Chris and Rachel helped design the video's story, doing a great job at laying out a story about our medical device. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

I was mostly impressed by how Signature Video Group laid out the storyline and their ability to put together a story for a complicated product. The team's ability to simplify and create the story was what impressed me the most. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

All of our project's expectations were received, and I was happy with Signature Video Group's work. The team did everything I asked them to.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

When engaging with a service provider, it's our responsibility as a client to dedicate the same time and effort as the team. If we do that, the final product will be fantastic. 

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I work as an innovation, communications, and public affairs manager for Ontario Genomics, a government-funded nonprofit. The government funds us, and we give that money to researchers and startups who use genomics and biotechnology in the healthcare, food, and agriculture industries.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Signature Video Group?

One of the programs we work on is Bio Create, a startup accelerator program on which we give $150,000 and 18 months of mentorship to selected companies to scale up their products and get them to market faster. I needed Signature Video Group to create a promotional video to explain our program.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Signature Video Group has produced an inspiring two-minute promotional video to give viewers a general idea of our program. We want to put this video on our website, use it for social media, show it to the government, and play it at conferences.

What is the team composition?

I've been working with three teammates from Signature Video Group, including Samatha (Senior Account Manager), who has worked directly with me, Chris (Founder & Creative Director), and Rachel (Producer), who has been on the group calls, although I don't work directly with her.

How did you come to work with Signature Video Group?

I found Signature Video Group on Clutch. Initially, I reached out to a creative company that works with nonprofits, but they told me that they were booked and didn't have the capacity to take on a new client, so they suggested going to Clutch, where I found them.

As an organization, I had to do due diligence and look for multiple potential service providers to choose the one I felt was the best fit. Additionally, we didn't have a lot of money to spend. Our Bio Create program was funded by both the provincial and federal governments, so we had to be very cautious about how we would spend the money.

I needed to ensure that the service provided we hired would offer the biggest value for the money and act as a legitimate creative partner. Throughout this process, I went through five different companies and settled with Signature Video Group, as they were great to deal with and just great people overall.

During the initial call, the team made time to answer my questions, which were more questions than average, considering my journalistic background. Still, they were very patient with me. Additionally, they met our budget, which I want to make very clear. Although it seemed that they tend to work on bigger projects, they weren't disappointed that we only had $15,000 CAD (approximately $11,000 USD) to work with.

Still, the reason why we went with them was because they had a great sense of aesthetics. When other creative companies work with nonprofits, their work is very cookie-cutter-made. It all seems the same, and nothing seems to have a particular inspiration or a different story to tell.

Signature Video Group had a cinematic setting, which would lend a lot of weight and credibility to the project and the program we were working on. I didn't want this video to look like any other promotional video from other nonprofits, so it was important for me to achieve a certain taste and quality level.

I was really thrilled with what Signature Video Group showed us as examples of their work. They had worked with an accelerator program before, so they showed us the promotional videos they had done for that company. Although that company had a lot more money than us, those videos definitely inspired us.

Something that was really important during this process was that Signature Video Group, as a creative company, presented possibilities and visions to us that we hadn't thought of before. A lot of the videos that they showed us helped me see the possibilities that were available for us regarding storytelling.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $15,000 CAD (approximately $11,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

I first reached out to them around July 2023, and our engagement is ongoing. The video was launched in November 2023. Now, I want them to do another video for us in 2024.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We're a social-media-user-oriented organization. When the video was released, it was incredibly well-received by our followers. We've also played it at a launch event and at Queen's Park during our provincial legislator's lecture, as well as in other events. The video is also on our website.

Unfortunately, we haven't had anyone to push it, so I can't provide compelling metrics on clicks or views. We're going to put someone in place to promote the video shortly because it would be great to have someone to help us push this video while we work on the second video this year.

That said, everyone internally has been thrilled with the video. Our organization doesn't have a communications team, so the concept, execution, and style of this video have been incredibly different from what we're used to doing. Given my journalistic background, I'm trying to make products that appeal to a wider audience, not just academia. Therefore, this video has been completely different from anything my organization has ever put out. Still, they're very thrilled.

The video is beautiful, including its sound, which was impeccable. I used to work on the radio, so I'm very aware of sounds and music. The sound that Signature Video Group has used in this video is really special and emotive. Moreover, I love the visuals. Due to our budget, the team obviously had to use a lot of stock footage to meet our budget, which was fine. Everything they used was excellent.

We did have some issues with the voiceover artist, but Signature Video Group was really accommodating and definitely patient with me. They even had the voiceover artist re-record, and I was part of that live recording process so that I could hear everything and make adjustments in real-time.

I really appreciate Signature Video Group's patience with me during that process. They went above and beyond to ensure that the audio was what I wanted it to be.

How did Signature Video Group perform from a project management standpoint?

Signature Video Group has definitely met the deadlines. The deadlines have actually come quicker than initially anticipated because our CEO was speaking at a conference in Ottowa, so we wanted to have the video ready for that conference. Still, the team has adjusted on the fly and has been able to deliver the video sooner than anticipated. They respond quickly, for sure.

Moreover, I've never felt that, considering our budget, they just wanted to finish the project and get us out of the way, which was very important for us. As for communication, we usually use email. We also have group Zoom calls, during which they show me videos as examples of things to give me some ideas. I really like our Zoom calls because we communicate with the whole team, so we can hear everyone's perspective.

To date, our communication is very good — not too much or too little. They keep reaching out every few months to see how things are going.

Are there any employees from the service provider's team that you would like to give a shout-out to in this review?

Although I deal with Samantha the most, the entire team has been wonderful. For example, I just had a call with Chris last week about doing another video this year, and the three of them were on that call. The entire team is really great, and they offer a lot.

Something that I really like about them, which has to do with the general vibe of Signature Video Group, is that they're very collaborative, and it never feels like a hard sell. They provide suggestions, and if we're not into those, they quickly move on; there's no pushback, which makes things feel organic and friendly.

I've worked with other creative companies in the past, and there's always an edge to them; they seem to be impatient. Working with Signature Video Group, I've never felt that. They're very patient and respectful of boundaries, and that's always the case with the three of their members working with us.

What did you find most impressive about them?

The most impressive thing about Signature Video Group is their vibe. Although their technical talent is obviously there, what I like the most is that I feel comfortable working with them. I've never experienced any drama or felt any negativity because they don't use negative language. They're good people who do good work and in whom I trust; that's the kind of people I want to work with.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can't think of anything Signature Video Group could improve on.

Do you have any advice for future clients of theirs?

Be honest, and don't be worried about hurting people's feelings; this is their job. Tell them what you're looking for, and don't be afraid to tell them if you don't know it yet. In fact, during my initial conversations with them, I gave them a general idea of what we wanted but told them that I was looking for a creative company to do the rest.

Whether this is the first video you've made or not, go in with your ideas. Signature Video Group is very patient and giving in the sense that if you don't like something, they move on and don't take it personally. Therefore, you just need to be open, honest, and ready to receive because they're too.
