Videos Your Employees Actually Watch — Corporate Video Production in Minneapolis
North Loop Story makes the films your employees finish and your customers remember — brand stories, training libraries, exec comms, and recruiting videos, produced like television instead of a compliance checkbox.
The Enemy Is the Skip Button
Nobody watches corporate video out of obligation anymore — they skip, skim, and mute. So we make internal films the way networks make television: real people over talking-head scripts, stories over bullet points, and edits that respect the viewer's time. The result shows up in the numbers your team reports on: completion rates, comms scores, offer-accepts.
- ✓Producer-led discovery before any camera
- ✓Real employees, coached until they sound like themselves
- ✓Edits built for attention spans, not run-time quotas
- ✓Measured against the metric you care about
Six Jobs Corporate Video Has to Do
Each with its own audience, its own metric, and its own craft.
Built for How Companies Buy Video
Procurement-Ready
SOWs, COIs, NDAs, vendor onboarding — handled without sighing. We've passed every vendor review we've entered.
Brand-Safe by Default
Your guidelines, your legal review loops, your approval chain — built into the timeline from day one.
Office-Friendly Shoots
Small crews, quiet setups, minimal disruption — your workplace stays a workplace while we film it.
Reported Like a Program
Completion, engagement, and usage data on request — video you can defend in the budget meeting.
On Location Around the Cities
Scoped, Shot, Shipped — Without Surprises
Discovery & Scope
A producer maps the audience, the message, and the metric — then writes a scope your procurement team will like.
Plan Around Your Office
Scripts or interview guides, schedules that respect calendars, and prep that makes non-actors comfortable.
Film Without Disruption
Small crew, quiet gear, tight windows — we've filmed C-suites between board sessions without anyone noticing.
Deliver & Measure
Review links, structured feedback rounds, and final masters for every platform — plus the numbers afterward.
From Compliance Chore to Completed Course
Most training video fails because it's built for the auditor, not the employee. We rebuild L&D libraries as stories — real scenarios, real colleagues, modules sized for attention — and completion rates jump. One manufacturing client went from 61% to 94% completion on the same content. The auditor still gets the checklist; your people finally get something watchable.
- ✓Module-based libraries, sized for attention
- ✓Real employees & real scenarios on screen
- ✓LMS-ready formats, captions included
- ✓Refreshed annually without full reshoots
What Twelve Years of Corporate Sets Taught Us
Comfort Is the Craft
Executives and employees aren't actors. Our interview method gets people talking like themselves — which is the entire difference between a film and a hostage video.
The Metric Comes First
Completion rate, comms scores, offer-accepts, pipeline — every project starts by naming the number it moves, so 'did it work?' has an answer.
Longevity Beats Flash
We build films and libraries that survive rebrands and reorgs — modular edits, evergreen structure, and refresh plans instead of reshoots.
Asked in the First Scoping Call
What does corporate video cost?
Single films — a case study, a recruiting video — typically run mid-four to low-five figures depending on scope. Training libraries and series are priced per program with volume efficiency built in. Every engagement starts with a written scope and a number that holds.
How long does a project take?
A single video typically runs two to four weeks from kickoff to master. Libraries and series get a program calendar with dated milestones — and our reputation rests on hitting them.
Can you film without disrupting the office?
That's our specialty. Small crews, quiet lighting, and shoot windows planned around your calendar — we've filmed entire culture series without a single meeting-room complaint.
Our executives hate being on camera. Help?
Almost all of them do — at first. Our interview approach uses conversation instead of teleprompters, coaching instead of takes-counting, and edits that make everyone sound like their best self. CEOs who dreaded shoot one tend to volunteer for shoot two.
Do you work with our brand and legal teams?
Built into the process — brand guidelines are ingested at kickoff, legal review rounds are scheduled into the timeline, and approval chains are mapped so nothing stalls at the finish line.
Can you update videos later without reshooting everything?
Yes — we shoot and edit modularly, keep organized archives, and plan annual refresh passes. A policy change updates a module, not a library.
Let's Scope It Properly
A producer, a scoping call, and a written range within the week — the painless way to find out what it takes.
