A brand film is a 1 to 3 minute cinematic video that tells who your company is and why customers should choose you. Mystudionet Productions produces brand films for Long Island, New York City and New Jersey businesses, with AI-assisted production that delivers in 2 to 4 weeks.
A brand film is a short cinematic video, usually 1 to 3 minutes, that tells your company's story: who you are, what you stand for and why customers should choose you. It is not a sales pitch. It creates emotional connection and earns trust before a single transaction happens, which is why it works as the hero video on a homepage, on LinkedIn and as a pre-roll ad.
Costs vary with length, locations and whether the film is shot with a crew, produced with AI or both. A traditionally filmed brand film for a local business typically runs $20,000 to $60,000; AI-assisted production usually lands at 20 to 40 percent of that. We explain the numbers in How Much Does an AI Commercial Cost in 2026? and the full definition in What Is a Brand Film and Does Your Business Need One? Every project is quoted individually.

Book a Free CallA brand film is a cinematic short video, usually 1 to 3 minutes, that tells your company's story: who you are, what you stand for, and why customers should choose you. It is not a direct sales pitch but an emotional connection piece that builds trust before the first conversation.
A traditionally filmed brand film for a local business typically costs $20,000 to $60,000 once crew, locations, equipment and editing are counted. AI-assisted brand films usually cost 20 to 40 percent of that. Mystudionet Productions quotes every brand film individually after a free 30-minute discovery call.
AI-assisted brand films typically take 2 to 4 weeks from approved concept to delivery. Traditionally filmed brand films take 4 to 8 weeks because of scheduling, the shoot itself and a longer edit. Hybrid projects fall in between.
Brand films typically run 1 to 3 minutes. We also deliver 30 to 60 second cuts for paid social, YouTube pre-roll and Instagram, produced from the same material, so one project covers your website, ads and presentations.
A commercial promotes a specific product or offer with a direct call to action. A brand film focuses on your company's identity, values and story. Most businesses use both: the brand film builds trust, the commercial converts.
AI is used for concept visuals, environments and scenes that would be expensive or impossible to film, and to speed up post-production. Real people such as founders, teams and customers are still filmed with a crew when authenticity is the point. The result is a cinematic film delivered faster and at lower cost than a traditional shoot.
If you want customers who connect with your values and story, not just your product, a brand film is one of the highest-return investments you can make. It works especially well on landing pages, LinkedIn, sales presentations and as the opening of an ad campaign.
