Video Marketing Agency
Your compliance team kills every bold idea, and your videos end up looking like everyone else's. We get it — finance is a regulated business. Lava Media builds financial services video that survives legal review and still makes people feel something.
Request a QuoteWe start with your business goal and your regulatory constraints in the same conversation. Who are you talking to, what must legal approve, and what do you need the viewer to actually do after watching?
We turn dense product mechanics — a joint account, a closed-end fund, a claims workflow — into a narrative a non-expert can follow. You approve the script and storyboard before anyone picks up a camera.

Live-action shoots with directors and cinematographers, or 2D and 3D animation when the subject is an interface or an algorithm. Both run through the same in-house team, so quality and timeline stay predictable.

Editing, sound design, motion graphics and color grading, plus every cut your channels need — broadcast, trade show screens, LinkedIn, and your app store listing. Revisions are built into each stage, not billed as extras.
A good brief for financial services video production answers three questions up front.
A major bank needed a 30-second spot for the big screens at a business forum, with roughly ten days on the clock. We pitched five concepts, shot in eight hours, and delivered on time.

Best for explaining a product that lives on a screen: a payments flow, a lending decision, a fund structure. We build it in 2D and 3D motion graphics, so nothing depends on a location or a shoot day.
The workhorse for corporate, recruitment and client-education video. One day of live-action filming with a full crew, then animated overlays that carry the numbers, disclosures and product UI your audience needs to see. Ideal when a real person has to carry the trust.
For national brand work: broadcast and OTT spots, investor-day films, multi-market campaigns. Full agency-level concepting, professional casting, multi-day shoots on cinema cameras, and a creative director who stays on the project from kickoff to final grade.
We already know what a closed-end fund, a joint account and an AML workflow are, so briefings stay short.
Disclosure and legal review are scheduled stages in the production plan, not a surprise that blows up your launch date.
Strategists, writers, directors, animators and editors sit on one team, which is why a ten-day turnaround is possible at all.
We build with both and tell you honestly which one your project needs, instead of selling whatever we happen to prefer.
You tell us the audience, the objective, the regulatory constraints and any reference work. We align on direction before anything is written.
We write the script and storyboard, then route them through your marketing and compliance reviewers together, so approvals happen once rather than twice.
Depending on your package we shoot on location or in studio, or build the piece as animation. You see dailies and rough cuts throughout.
You get master files plus every platform ratio, labelled and ready to publish. We also flag which hooks to test first on paid channels.
Tell us your goal, your audience and your deadline. We will come back with a creative direction and a fixed quote — no obligation.
Most projects land between $9,500 and $50,000. An animated explainer with no shoot starts around $9,500; a hybrid live-action and motion-graphics film runs about $15,000; national broadcast and OTT campaigns start near $50,000. We quote a fixed price after the brief, not an open-ended hourly estimate.
Four to six weeks is typical for a single asset, including compliance review. Faster is possible: we delivered a 30-second commercial for a major bank in roughly ten days when the client had a trade-show deadline. Tell us your date early and we build the schedule backwards from it.
Yes. Disclosure language, claim substantiation and legal sign-off are scheduled stages in the plan, not afterthoughts. We work from your approved claims list, keep a version history of every script change, and build review rounds into each production stage so nothing gets discovered at the final cut.
Explainers for a product or app feature, brand and culture films, recruitment video, client-education series, investor and earnings content, conference and trade-show spots, and training content for AML or security awareness. Most clients start with one asset and move to a retainer once distribution is working.
We agree the metric before production: cost per acquisition on paid, completion rate on organic, applications started, demo requests, or qualified applicants for recruitment work. On our bank commercial the client tracked CPA across the ad flight. You get the cuts and the testing plan together.
Both. Our financial services video production work spans retail banks, asset and wealth managers, audit and advisory firms such as Mazars, insurers, and venture-backed fintech. If your category has a regulator and a long buying cycle, the process on this page applies to you.
