ONE PARTNER. EVERY FORMAT. EVERY PLATFORM.

Chicago brands come to INDIRAP for one partner that handles strategy, production and distribution from start to finish, so your video works everywhere your audience is.

CONTENT Strategy
+ CREATIVE DIRECTION

Every project starts with your goals, your audience, and where the video will live, mapped out before a camera ever rolls. That strategy drives every creative call we make, from concept and tone to the story arc we build, so each video looks sharp and earns its place in your marketing.

CONTENT CREATION

Our in-house crew handles the entire shoot, direction, lighting, sound, editing, motion graphics, and color, all from our West Loop studio, so the idea we shaped in strategy carries straight through to a polished final cut.

Distribution + VIDEO MARKETING

A great video only pays off when the right people see it. We optimize every asset for video SEO and AEO, run paid campaigns on YouTube and Meta, and get your content to the right audience on the right platform, turning production into real reach and measurable results.

THE FINE LINE BETWEEN COOL & CORPORATE

Corporate Video Production

Professional video built around your business objectives and the results they drive. We produce brand hero videos, executive profiles, recruitment videos, event coverage, testimonials, and internal communications for organizations of every size.

EYEBALL-HUNGRY brand STORYTELLinG

Brand Video Production

Some stories need to make people feel something before they buy, follow, or believe. Brand films, brand storytelling, product launch videos, and company story content give your business a clear point of view, produced for consumer brands, DTC companies, and growth-stage teams that want content with personality.

PROPERTY TOURS + LIFESTYLE CONTENT

Real Estate Video Production

The first showing almost always happens on a screen. We produce property tours, drone aerials, development promos, and lease-up campaigns for luxury brokers, developers, and national property management firms, all built to move listings faster.

"Their creative vision helps us scale our marketing plan across every platform. Although the original concept for some campaigns is focused on social, I can ultimately use the content in many different ways. They’re the best at what they do, and I’ve always felt that they’re very caring and attentive to me and my business’s needs - that’s why I continue working with them.

What Our CHICAgO Clients Say

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

ONE SEAMLESS pRODUCTION PROCESS, FROM START TO FINISH

Great video production is a process, not luck. Every project runs the same 5 seamless steps, from strategy all the way through distribution, so you always know what comes next and the video ships on time, on brand, and built to perform.

1

DISCOVERY + CONTENT STRATEGY

We learn your business, your audience, and the conversion job the video has to do. You signoff on a creative brief and a clear scope before anything moves, so there are no surprises laterand no scope creep.

2

PRE-PRODCUTION + CREATIVE

Concept, script, storyboard, shot list, casting, locations, and music direction. By the time we shoot, everything is clearly outlined in a super-thorough creative doc that keeps everyone aligned from start to finish.

3

CONTENT CREATION + ON-SITE PRODUCTION

Production is where the magic happens. We bring a full crew to your location with cinema cameras, drone, gimbal, professional lighting, and sound. A single-camera founder interview, a multi-day brand campaign, and a national broadcast spot each get the right team and gear on site. Animation and motion graphics run in parallel when the project calls for it, which keeps live action and design on the same timeline.

4

POST-PRODUCTION + OPTIMIZATION

Professional video editing, color, sound design, motion graphics, captions, and platform-ready cutdowns. We optimize every asset for multi-channel distribution: vertical cuts, paid variations, and website-ready files, all built for performance.

5

DISTRIBUTION & VIDEO MARKETING

Platform-native cutdowns for every feed, paid amplification on YouTube, Meta, LinkedIn, andTikTok, and performance reporting. This is the step most production companies skip, and thereason your video actually drives results instead of sitting on a hard drive.

frequently asked questions

What types of video does INDIRAP produce?

Corporate videos, brand films, real estate property tours, social media content, short-form Reels and Shorts, paid social ad creative, training videos, event coverage, executive profiles, and product launch videos. We also run ongoing content programs through the Content Engine and Content Kit for brands that need a steady stream of video. Whether you need a single hero film or a full-funnel library, everything is produced under one roof by one in-house team.

What areas of Chicago and the suburbs do you serve?

We produce on location across the entire city and the greater Chicagoland area, including the West Loop, the Loop, River North, Fulton Market, Lincoln Park, and the surrounding suburbs. We can shoot at your office, on site at a property or event, on location anywhere in the metro, or in studio, whichever setup best fits the project. Our crew travels with full cinema camera, lighting, drone, and sound packages, so the production quality stays consistent wherever we film.

HOW FAST CAN YOU PRODUCE VIDEO?

Most projects are captured in one to three production days, with finished videos delivered shortly after. A typical live-action project runs about one to three weeks from kickoff to final delivery, and animation runs two to three weeks. Larger multi-shoot campaigns and episodic content run four to eight weeks. Because we are local, we can often move quickly on scheduling and scouting, and rush timelines are possible when a deadline calls for it.

HOW MUCH DOES VIDEO PRODUCTION COST IN CHICAgo?

Pricing depends on scope, but as a guide a 60 to 90 second brand video typically falls in the $4,000 to $15,000 range, a high-end animated explainer runs $5,000 to $17,500, and a live-action commercial campaign can run $12,500 to $25,000 and up. The most cost-effective route for most brands is a batched production, where a single shoot captures a full library of videos and the cost per finished asset drops sharply. We also package video three ways: the Content Kit captures a full library of assets in one fixed-scope production, the Content Engine is an ongoing retainer that keeps your calendar full month over month, and our Social Media program handles always-on short-form. Every proposal is itemized, so you know exactly what you are paying for with no padding and no surprises.

Do you only work with Chicago brands, or nationwide too?

Chicago is home, and we also produce for brands across the country. We have shot in 40-plus states, traveling with our own crew or partnering with vetted local teams depending on the project, whichever delivers the best result for the budget. Local clients get the added benefit of an in-person team that can meet, scout, and shoot on short notice.

Do you handle distribution and paid promotion, or just filming?

We manage the full lifecycle of video content, from strategy and production through distribution and paid amplification. We optimize video for search with YouTube SEO, video AEO, schema markup, and transcripts, and we run paid campaigns on YouTube, Meta, and other platforms so your content reaches the right audience. Production without distribution is only half the job, and this is the step that turns a finished video into actual reach and results.

Where is INDIRAP located?

Our studio is in Chicago's West Loop at 954 W. Washington Blvd, Suite 430. We have produced video since 2013 and delivered more than 20,000 videos for 900-plus brands, from funded startups to Fortune 500 companies. You are welcome to reach us at (312) 248-3497 to talk through a project.
