Baylyn Media provides professional video production and commercial production services for businesses looking to create content for broadcast television, streaming TV, websites, social media, and digital advertising. From the initial concept through filming, editing, post-production, and final delivery, we develop professional video content around your brand, audience, and marketing objectives.
Whether you need a television commercial, animated video, corporate presentation, social media content, or a complete advertising campaign, our goal is to create content that captures attention and communicates your message effectively.
TV Commercial & Advertising Production in Chicago, IL
A successful TV commercial needs to do more than look good. It needs to quickly communicate your message, connect with the intended audience, and give viewers a reason to remember your business.
Baylyn Media produces professional commercials for broadcast television, streaming TV, OTT, CTV, and digital advertising. Productions can include short :10 and :15 advertising spots as well as traditional :30 and :60 commercials.
Commercial Production From Concept to Completion
Our commercial production services can include creative development, script writing, professional filming, voiceovers, actors, lighting, sound, animation, motion graphics, video editing, and post-production.
Production requirements are determined by the needs of each project. A larger on-location shoot may require multiple cameras, professional lighting, sound technicians, actors, makeup artists, and a multi-person production crew. Other projects may rely primarily on animation, graphics, voiceover, and editing.
Production and Media Placement Under One Roof
Baylyn Media is more than a production company. Because we also provide broadcast TV, streaming TV, and digital advertising services, we can consider how and where your commercial will be used while developing the creative.
This creates a connected process from concept and script development through production, editing, final delivery, and advertising placement.
4K & UHD Video Production
High-quality visuals can make a major difference in how customers perceive your business. Baylyn Media provides 4K and UHD video production for commercials, corporate content, websites, streaming campaigns, digital advertising, and social media.
High-resolution production provides greater image detail and gives businesses the flexibility to use professional footage across multiple platforms and screen sizes.
Professional On-Location Video Production
When a project requires filming at your business, jobsite, event, or another location, production can be designed around the environment and creative requirements.
Depending on the project, an on-location video production may include professional cameras, multiple camera angles, lighting, microphones and sound equipment, talent, interviews, and additional production personnel.
Streaming TV, OTT & CTV Video Production in Chicago, IL
Television viewing has expanded far beyond traditional broadcast TV. Consumers now watch programming through smart TVs, streaming devices, connected television platforms, and streaming applications.
Baylyn Media creates streaming TV commercials and OTT/CTV video advertising designed for today’s television audiences.
Commercials can be produced specifically for streaming campaigns or adapted from a broader production for use across broadcast television, streaming television, websites, social media, and digital advertising.
Animation & Motion Graphics Production
Not every idea requires a traditional camera shoot.
Animation and motion graphics can turn products, services, concepts, and marketing messages into visually engaging content that would be difficult—or sometimes impossible—to create with traditional filming.
Baylyn Media can develop animated commercials, explainer videos, motion graphics, animated branding, product demonstrations, and digital advertising content.
2D & 3D Animation in Chicago, IL
2D and 3D animation provide businesses with creative flexibility for advertising, product visualization, explainers, social media, and branded content.
Animation can combine characters, products, typography, logos, voiceovers, music, sound effects, and visual effects into one cohesive production.
Animated Commercials
Animated advertising can be particularly effective when you want to create something visually different from traditional commercial production.
An animated commercial can be developed for streaming TV, social media, websites, YouTube, digital advertising, and other marketing channels.
UGC Video Production
UGC, or User-Generated Content style video, is designed to feel more personal and natural than a traditional polished commercial.
UGC-style content may feature someone demonstrating a product, talking about a service, sharing an experience, answering a question, or speaking directly to the viewer.
This approach has become especially useful for social media because the advertising can feel more similar to the content viewers already consume.
UGC for Social Media Advertising
UGC-style videos can be created for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and other social platforms and incorporated into paid or organic social media campaigns.
The production can still be professionally planned while maintaining the more authentic presentation associated with UGC content.
Social Media Video Production
Every social platform has its own audience, viewing habits, and preferred video formats.
Baylyn Media creates social media video content for YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and other digital platforms.
Productions can include short-form advertisements, vertical video, promotional content, product demonstrations, branded content, educational videos, and longer-form productions.
YouTube Video Production
YouTube provides businesses with opportunities for both advertising and long-form video content.
We can create YouTube videos and YouTube advertising creative for product demonstrations, company presentations, educational content, commercials, customer information, and marketing campaigns.
Vertical & Short-Form Video
Smartphones have changed the way audiences consume video.
Vertical and short-form productions can be designed specifically for Reels, Shorts, TikTok, and mobile advertising, allowing the creative to properly fill the viewer’s screen instead of simply resizing a traditional horizontal commercial.
Corporate Video Production
Professional video isn’t limited to advertising.
Businesses can use corporate video production to communicate with customers, employees, potential recruits, investors, and business partners.
Corporate productions can include company profiles, recruiting videos, employee training, customer testimonials, executive messages, presentations, facility tours, interviews, and product demonstrations.
Recruiting Videos
A professional recruiting video can show potential employees more than a written job description ever could.
Video can introduce your workplace, employees, facilities, company culture, career opportunities, and the type of work applicants can expect.
Customer Testimonial Videos
Customer testimonials allow real customers to explain their experience with your business in their own words.
Professionally produced testimonial videos can be used on websites, social media, YouTube, landing pages, presentations, and advertising campaigns.
Live Streaming & Live Video Production
Reach audiences beyond the physical location of an event with professional live streaming and live video production.
Live production can be used for corporate events, interviews, product launches, presentations, webinars, training sessions, announcements, and special events.
Multi-Camera Live Production
Depending on the project, multiple cameras can provide different perspectives and create a more professional viewing experience.
Recorded live content can also be edited after the event and transformed into additional videos for websites, social media, advertising, training, and future marketing campaigns.
Professional Video Editing & Post-Production
Filming is only one part of professional production.
Video editing and post-production transform raw footage into the finished story. Editing can include scene selection, transitions, graphics, animation, voiceovers, music, sound effects, titles, branding, color enhancement, and final formatting.
Repurpose Existing Video Content
You may already have valuable footage that can be turned into new marketing content.
Existing videos can be edited into shorter commercials, social media clips, digital advertisements, website videos, presentations, and other marketing assets.
This allows businesses to get additional value from content they have already produced.
Our Video Production Process
Professional production requires planning before the cameras begin recording.
Baylyn Media develops each project around the business, audience, message, distribution platform, and production requirements.
Creative Concept & Strategy
We begin by identifying what the video needs to accomplish, who needs to see it, and what message should be communicated.
Script Writing & Pre-Production
Once the direction is established, the project moves into pre-production. This can include script writing, storyboarding, location planning, talent selection, voiceovers, production scheduling, and determining camera, lighting, and sound requirements.
Filming & Production
The production is then captured according to the creative plan. Requirements can range from a straightforward single-location shoot to a larger multi-camera production involving talent and multiple production professionals.
Editing & Post-Production
The captured footage is assembled into the finished production with editing, graphics, sound, animation, music, voiceovers, branding, and other creative elements.
Final Delivery & Formatting
The finished video can be formatted for its intended destination, including broadcast television, streaming TV, websites, YouTube, social media, digital advertising, and mobile devices.
One Production. Multiple Marketing Channels.
A professional video shouldn’t necessarily be created for only one use.
One production can provide content for TV advertising, streaming television, YouTube, social media, websites, landing pages, email marketing, digital advertising, presentations, and other marketing channels.
A :30 commercial might become a :15 streaming advertisement. The same production could provide short social media clips, website video, still images, or additional digital creative.
This approach can help businesses extend the useful life and value of their original production.
Video Production for Every Screen
Your customers watch video on televisions, computers, tablets, and smartphones.
That’s why production should consider the screen and platform where the audience will ultimately see the message.
Baylyn Media combines professional video production, commercial production, broadcast TV advertising, streaming TV, and digital marketing to help businesses take an idea from the initial concept to the finished campaign.
One Production Partner. Every Screen. Every Platform.
