Whether it’s for an internal announcement, global company update, or investor-facing presentation, CEO message videos are a powerful way to build trust and visibility. And when filming in China—whether in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Beijing, or your local office—it’s important to get every detail right.
At Shoot In China, we’ve supported dozens of executive shoots for multinational clients across industries. Here’s what you need to know to create a polished CEO message video in China that meets global standards.
🧑💼 Why CEO Message Videos Matter More Than Ever
- 📢 Direct, personal communication builds trust across global teams
- 🎯 Essential for quarterly updates, M&A announcements, ESG goals
- 🖥️ Used in virtual town halls, LinkedIn posts, investor decks, and more
- 🌐 Especially important when headquarters and China teams are remote
The challenge? Making sure your message is authentic, on-brand, and visually professional—even on a tight schedule.
🎥 Pre-Shoot Prep: What to Confirm Before Filming
✅ Script or Talking Points
- Keep it concise (under 2–3 minutes is ideal)
- Ensure key points align with brand tone & regional goals
- We can provide bilingual script support for clarity across teams
🧥 Wardrobe & Appearance
- Neutral or brand colors
- Avoid fine patterns, flashy accessories, or green (if using green screen)
- Hair & makeup optional—but often worth it for shine reduction & polish
📍 Location Scouting
- Quiet, clean office? Corporate lobby? Rooftop with skyline?
- We can suggest on-brand backdrops based on your city and content goals
