Explainer Content

Based in Boston, MA—

and serving clients across Massachusetts and the Northeast

with Castillo Holliday Films

here are some ways we can help:

We make explainer and educational video production for organizations whose work is genuinely hard to explain in a single sentence: healthcare brands, edtech companies, higher education institutions, and mission-driven organizations. The audience for this work is busy and skeptical, and they deserve a video that respects their time and the nuance of the subject all at once. We write, shoot, and cut explainers that hook in the first ten seconds and get people to the moment of "okay, now I get it."

MAKE THE COMPLICATED THING MAKE SENSE

CLARITY IS A CRAFT · WE TREAT IT LIKE ONE

The 60-to-120-second explainer video that does your first sales call for you. We start with your audience: what they know, what they need to do, what's in the way; and build the script from there. Corporate explainer video production, live-action by default, animated layers when the story needs them.

Product & Platform Explainers

Educational video production for healthcare and life-sciences brands explaining a pathway, a procedure, or a program, with real care for the nuance and the people involved. The kind of clarity that doesn't flatten the subject to get there.

Healthcare & Patient Education

Onboarding, training, and internal-comms video for HR and L&D teams that won't feel disposable a year from now. One look, one voice, built so a whole library feels like one product instead of thirty stitched-together files.

Training & Onboarding

Educational video production services for edtech and education organizations launching into schools, families, and learners with no patience for fluff. Delivered to your LMS or platform specs, with captions and accessibility built in, not bolted on after.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Live-action or animation?

Mostly live-action with animated layers when the story calls for them. We're a live-action explainer video production company first — we think real humans on camera build trust faster, especially in healthcare and education. We use animation when it earns its keep; we don't lead with it.

Our subject is really complicated. Can you actually simplify it?

That's the whole job. Bring us the messy version, the thing your team's been arguing about for six months. Clarity is the craft we're selling, and we don't flatten the nuance to get there.

Do you work with higher education and edtech organizations?

Yes! higher education video production and edtech content are a big part of what we do. Whether it's course content, institutional storytelling, or recruitment video, we understand the audience and the constraints that come with the space.

Can you work to our LMS or accessibility requirements?

Yes. Tell us the platform and the specs; SCORM, captions, audio description, multi-language voiceover, and we'll deliver to match.

Do you do multi-language or multi-region versions?

Yes, at both the script stage and the delivery stage, localized voiceover, on-screen text, and regional cuts.
