Product video production in Germany: Pixer team on set with a cinema camera

Agency or production company? With us, the same thing.

Many video agencies are an intermediary: they take the brief and subcontract concept, shoot and edit. We work differently. Pixer is a film production company — concept, camera, lighting, sound, edit and colour grading are all in-house. From the first idea to final approval, you speak to the people who actually make the film.

That makes us faster and usually more affordable than the agency route — and it ensures what was agreed in the brief is what ends up on screen.

Why a real product video sells in the Amazon gallery

Ten images cannot show how easily a lid opens, how a fabric falls or what a device sounds like. Thirty seconds of real video can. The buyer sees the product moving, in real hands, in a situation they recognise — and the question ‚Do I need this?‘ answers itself before they ask it.

That is the difference between a video people click away and one they add to cart after. Renders and stock footage create distance. Real footage creates closeness — and closeness converts.

Really shot, not rendered

Many providers deliver product videos from 3D renders or animated stock clips: fast, cheap, interchangeable. We build a real set, cast a model who fits the audience and shoot with cinema equipment — because the difference shows. Real skin, real material, real light are not things software convincingly invents.

After more than 3,000 projects we know how a product video for skincare is built differently from one for tools, and what works in your category. That research is part of every package.

Brand film: your company in 90 seconds

A brand film shows who you are before anyone speaks to you — on your website, in recruiting, at trade fairs, in the sales presentation. We build it from the message, not from the edit: what should the viewer know and feel about you after 90 seconds? From that come the shooting plan, interview questions and visual language.

It is shot with cinema equipment and clean sound — interviews on wireless mics, rooms lit, B-roll planned. The result is a film that still looks professional three years from now.

Social media ads: designed vertical

Ads for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Meta follow different rules from a brand film: the first two seconds decide, sound is often off, the format is portrait. So we shoot true vertical — not cropped afterwards — and edit for attention: fast hooks, on-screen text, a clear call to action.

One shooting day typically yields a main film plus three to five short versions for different channels and audiences.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about video production

How much does a product video cost?

A 30-second product video without a model, really shot on set, is €1,290 excl. VAT. A lifestyle production with one model at one location is €2,490. Both packages include research, script, shoot, edit, music, subtitles, 16:9 plus one vertical version and unlimited usage rights. Additional models, locations or versions carry fixed surcharges.

Why does a product video cost more than €400 with you?

Because we shoot rather than render. For €400 you usually get an animated stock video or a 3D render that every listing in your category could have as well. We build a real set, work with real light, real people and cinema equipment, and edit a video that shows your product as it really is. The buyer sees the difference in the first second — and that is exactly the second in which they decide whether to keep watching.

How much effort is it for me as a client?

Very little. You tell us the product, audience and channel and ship one unit to Essen, Germany. We research your category and the top listings, write the script, organise model and set, shoot and edit. After 14 working days you receive the finished video for approval. After more than 3,000 projects we know what works in your market.

How much does a brand film cost?

Brand films are quoted by scope: number of shooting days, interviews, locations and target length. A compact company film with one shooting day and two to three interviews typically lands in the low to mid four figures. You receive a fixed quote within 24 hours of your brief.

How long does production take?

Product videos are delivered 14 working days after the product arrives; by express in 5 working days (€390 surcharge). Brand films take two to four weeks from brief to approval depending on scope.

Do you only shoot in Germany?

We are based in Essen, Germany, next to the exhibition centre. Product videos are shot on changing sets and locations across NRW, chosen to fit the product — you ship the product from anywhere. For brand films, ads and event videos we come to you: across Germany and Europe with travel stated transparently.

Do we get vertical versions for social media?

Yes — one vertical 9:16 version is included in every product video package, shot true vertical, not cropped afterwards. Additional vertical cuts for different channels are a fixed add-on (€190 per version).

Do you also deliver product photos?

Yes. Photo and video come from one team — in the Listing + Video package on our product photography page you get the complete Amazon image set and the product video from a single shoot.
