Video for internal communication
Communicating change clearly, so everyone comes along
Reaching employees, not just informing them
A new strategy, a reorganisation, a new system or new rules: it has to be clear to everyone, from the shop floor to management. An email or intranet post is often only half read. A good video is watched, understood and remembered.
Explainit has been making videos for internal communication for years, for municipalities, healthcare institutions, education and large professional services firms. Animations that make a change story clear, quarterly updates from the board and onboarding videos for new colleagues.
We know the dynamics of large organisations: many stakeholders, sensitive topics and tight deadlines. That is why we work with short lines and a fixed approach, so you have a video on time that builds internal support. Read more in our blog about internal communication with video and animation.
Which video for internal communication do you need?
Internal communication takes many forms. These are the videos we make most often:
Change video
A reorganisation, merger or new way of working explained: why it is changing, what is changing and what it means for employees.
Animation or hybrid
Board update
Quarterly figures and strategy, explained by the board. Recorded in the studio or at the office, with autocue.
Film with presenter
Onboarding
New colleagues quickly finding their way in the organisation, the systems and the culture.
Animation or e-learning
Policy and compliance
Rules on privacy, safety or integrity explained, so that they are actually followed.
Animation
New systems and processes
A new system or process explained step by step, with animation or screencast.
Animation or screencast
Animation video
Moving illustrations, no camera. Ideal for abstract subjects or subjects that cannot be filmed.
Corporate film
Real people and places. Filmed with a camera. Strong for authenticity and trust.
Infographic
Data and facts made visual. Quick to scan, no movement but immediate impact.
When is video the smartest choice for internal communication?
Your message is complex. Animation makes abstract plans, processes and rules understandable in a few minutes.
You want support, not just understanding. A video with the board or with colleagues makes a change personal and credible.
You do not reach everyone by email. Employees in healthcare, construction or on location are easier to reach with a short video on a screen or phone.
The message must be the same everywhere. A video tells the story in exactly the same way at every location and in every team.
You want to reuse it later. A good explainer video stays usable for months or years, for example during onboarding.
