Onboarding videos
Welcome new staff with a clear, consistent induction video presented the same way each time. We create onboarding videos for South African employers, colleges and training providers, delivered online and prepared for easy sharing on your learning platform.
What our onboarding videos include
Our onboarding videos are made to help new staff understand your workplace, expectations and basic procedures from day one. Instead of repeating the same induction talk in every branch or training room, you get one presentation that can be shared across teams in Centurion, Pretoria, Johannesburg and anywhere else in South Africa.
Each video is built around your material. We can work from existing slides, policy notes, HR documents, process outlines or a rough list of topics. The presenter can be selected from standard options or customised to suit your organisation’s style. We add your logo, colours, screen captures and supporting visuals so the finished training feels like part of your own internal communication, not a generic explainer.
- Script writing or script clean-up from your notes and slides
- Presenter selection or custom presenter setup
- Branding with your logo, colours and on-screen style
- Voice options in several languages
- Subtitles for quieter viewing and accessibility
- Exports prepared for learning platforms, internal portals or direct sharing
A good fit for new starter training
Onboarding videos work well where every new employee must receive the same core message. That includes company introductions, workplace rules, conduct expectations, leave and attendance basics, uniform requirements, clock-in procedures, system access, site orientation and first-day checklists. They are also useful where training must be repeated across multiple branches or where shift patterns make live induction difficult.
For colleges and training providers, these videos can introduce learners to campus rules, workshop conduct, online learning procedures and support channels. For employers, they help reduce gaps between sites and make it easier for HR, supervisors and training teams to keep induction content current. During load-shedding planning, many clients also prefer downloadable files so videos can be stored locally or uploaded to their own systems for easier access.
How the process works
We keep the process practical and structured so your team knows what to send and what happens next. You do not need a full production brief to get started. A training outline and the main documents are enough for the first step.
- Step 1: You send your onboarding material through the enquiry process, including slides, notes or existing induction documents.
- Step 2: We review the content and map out the sections, such as welcome, company overview, policies, safety points and next steps.
- Step 3: We draft or refine the script so it reads clearly when spoken, not just when read on paper.
- Step 4: You choose the presenter style, language, voice and branding direction.
- Step 5: We assemble the video with your visuals, screen captures, subtitles and presenter segments.
- Step 6: You review the draft and request adjustments where needed.
- Step 7: We export the final files in the format suited to your learning platform or internal distribution.
If you want a presenter based on a real staff member, we only produce that with the person’s written consent. That keeps the process clear and suitable for internal governance requirements.
What you should prepare before we start
The smoother the source material, the easier it is to produce an onboarding video that is accurate and easy to follow. Most clients already have enough content to begin, even if it sits across several documents. If some items are outdated or repeated, we can help organise them into a cleaner training flow.
- Your current induction slides, handbook, notes or policy documents
- A list of the must-cover topics for every new starter
- Brand assets such as logo files, colours and any preferred visual style
- Screen captures or screenshots if systems or portals need to be shown
- Any language or subtitle requirements
- Names of the reviewers who must approve wording before release
It also helps to tell us where the video will be used. A video played in a training room may be structured slightly differently from one uploaded to an LMS or sent to remote staff before their first shift. Small details like this make a noticeable difference to pacing and file setup.
How pricing is worked out
Pricing is based on the scope of the job rather than a one-size-fits-all package. A short welcome and first-day overview will usually require less work than a full induction with multiple modules, several language versions and a custom presenter setup. We look at the amount of scripting required, the number of scenes, the level of branding, whether subtitles are needed, and how many export versions must be supplied.
Other factors can include voice choices, the amount of on-screen text, the complexity of screen captures and whether your team needs separate videos for different roles or departments. If content needs to be broken into bite-sized modules for an LMS, that can also affect the scope. We outline this clearly before production so your training team knows what is included and where optional extras may apply.
Delivery, revisions and aftercare
Once approved, your onboarding videos are delivered online in the agreed file formats for your internal platform, LMS or direct sharing. We can also prepare separate files for different uses, such as a full induction version, a shorter pre-start version and a captions version for muted playback in reception or training areas.
After delivery, we can help with updates when policies, procedures, branch details or visual branding change. This is especially useful for onboarding content because it tends to be used repeatedly and small changes matter. If municipal requirements, safety notices or internal procedures are updated you do not want old wording sitting in circulation. Keeping the master content organised makes future revisions easier, and we can work from the previous approved version so the structure stays consistent.
Clients can contact us through the enquiry form on our contact page to discuss a new onboarding video or an update to an existing one.

Questions we get asked
Can you turn our existing induction slides into an onboarding video?
Yes. We can work from slides, speaker notes, policy documents or a rough outline and shape them into a script that is easier to watch and understand.
Can the presenter match our organisation more closely?
Yes. You can choose from available presenter styles or request a custom presenter setup. If a presenter is based on a real staff member, we only do that with the person’s written consent.
Will the video work on our learning platform?
We export files for learning platforms and other internal delivery methods. If you already know your platform requirements, send them with your enquiry so the output can be prepared correctly.
