Joe Pan: Award-Winning Corporate Filmmaker and Founder of Pansworld Television
For marketers worldwide, a well-crafted marketing video can be a game changer for brand promotion and brand leadership. However, the corporate filmmaking industry is still evolving, with many films being made on a trial-and-error basis. While boastful narrations may make a corporate feel proud, how do external customers perceive it? More often than not, they see it as forced, self-praising information, failing to leave a lasting impact.

The Importance of Dual Skills in Corporate Filmmaking
To create an impactful corporate film, two essential skills are needed:
- Expert film-crafting skills and
- In-depth knowledge of industrial subjects.
Unfortunately, many filmmakers lack the latter. As a result, clients often have to provide scripts, which tend to be more like content writing rather than a compelling cinematic narrative.
Why You Need a Subject Matter Expert for Your Corporate Film
To make inspiring corporate films that resonate with customers globally, a filmmaker should also be a subject matter expert. Only then can they effectively visualize the corporate’s value proposition and present it with conviction and credibility.
Take Ownership of Your Film Project
No matter how busy you are, don’t delegate your film project to uninformed subordinates. Your corporate film should communicate your brand’s legacy, strengths, capabilities, and value proposition convincingly to external customers.
