5Your own office or a rented studio
For interviews, testimonials and training videos, your own space is often the best location. It shows the real company, and you control the light, the sound and the schedule.
Corporate video ideas: Executive interviews, customer testimonials, training and onboarding videos
Filming notes
- Permit
- In the City of Orlando, private property only needs a film permit for temporary structures. Get the owner’s or building manager’s OK.
- Tip
