Product & Explainer Videos
Clarity. Confidence. Conversions.
If people don’t understand what you offer, they won’t buy. A great product or explainer video bridges the gap between curiosity and action—whether you’re showcasing a physical product, demonstrating software, or breaking down a complex idea. We help you tell your story simply, clearly and in a way that actually gets watched.
Our Process
We start with a clear objective: What do you need people to understand or do after watching this? From there, we’ll write scripts or shape interview questions, storyboard the key visuals, and plan the shoot (or animation) with your input.
Filming might take place at your premises, on location, or in a studio environment, depending on the style. We’ll guide you through performance and delivery, ensuring things stay professional but natural.
Afterwards, we edit, animate (if needed), and deliver a polished video in multiple formats—ready to use on your site, social channels, or in pitches.
We also offer:
- Subtitled social cuts
- Voiceover recording
- Screen capture and software demos
- On-screen graphics and overlays

What We Can Deliver
We don’t just make videos—we craft stories that guide your audience from confusion to clarity. Each of these formats follows a tried-and-tested framework that’s designed to hold attention and convert interest into action:
- Product Overview Videos
Clear, punchy overviews that show what your product does, who it’s for, and why it matters—perfect for landing pages and sales conversations. - How-It-Works Explainers
Step-by-step breakdowns that simplify your product or service, using visuals and language that make it easy to understand (and easy to trust). - Animated Explainers
Perfect for abstract or technical ideas, these combine motion graphics, text, and voiceover to walk viewers through your concept with clarity and pace. - Software or Platform Walkthroughs
Screen-recorded demos with professional polish—ideal for showing functionality, onboarding new users, or training internal teams. - Founder-Led Product Introductions
Put a human face to your business. These videos help build connection, confidence, and credibility with your audience. - Social Media Product Teasers
Short, scroll-stopping edits designed for attention and action—cut from your main shoot or made as standalone campaigns. - Internal or Onboarding Explainer Content
Train teams, align departments, or launch new tools with easy-to-follow videos that save time and reduce confusion.

Meet Your Event Video Lead
Mark Harman – Director, Red Book Productions
Whether I’m filming a founder talking about their app or a scientist showing off a new device, I bring a practical, hands-on approach to every shoot. You don’t need to be a presenter—you just need a good guide. That’s where I come in.
Most people don’t need a script—they just need someone who knows how to bring out the story. My job is to make it feel natural, so your passion does the talking.

“Mark is a pleasure to work with and I have had the opportunity to work with him on a number of video projects. His unique approach makes video production for businesses stress-free and relaxed”
Matthew Larcome – B2B Expos
“The events I ran in November were in a distillery with an interesting and challenging room layout. Mark turned up, almost invisibly set up and captured the entire event. He then edited the content (shot with three cameras) together into really powerful content that I have been able to use for both marketing and training.”
