Educational Video Development & Production
Engaging cinema to teach, inspire, and engage with accessible content that sticks.



EDU Cinematic Storytelling
We believe that sharing stories is how humans learn best. Educational storytelling is a powerful tool for teaching and learning, using video to make information more accessible, engaging, and memorable. Whether used in classrooms, online courses, or community programs, stories simplify complex topics, reach diverse audiences, and foster deeper understanding. By combining cinematic craft with the stories of compelling characters, Reel Nation Media’s educational videos inspire curiosity and leave a lasting, memorable impact.
Use Stories to Educate Your Audience
A great EDU video does the following:
-
Pairs the cinematic medium with the best practices in video pedagogy
-
Balances communicating key learning points with engagement and clarity
-
Features compelling plots and characters that viewers relate with
-
Sections complex ideas for easier understanding
-
Optimizes length for engagement and retention (typically 2–5 minutes)
Use an educational video when you want to teach, train, or inspire in a way that’s clear, engaging, and memorable—whether in the classroom, in online learning, or in community outreach.

What makes a successful project?
It starts with clearly identifying your learning goals, then developing a concept that engages — without distracting — from those goals. A project succeeds when viewers both understand and achieve the outlined objectives and remember the story long after watching.

Individual videos we’ve produced typically range from $10,000–$30,000, depending on complexity. Series are unique — we can batch production and labor to create more content efficiently. Every project is customized to your needs and budget.
