Generational Financial Partners (GenFi) specializes in guiding contractor physicians toward financial clarity. When they approached us in 2024, their request was ambitious: produce an entire year’s worth of thought leadership video content in a single shoot day.
Challenge accepted — and accomplished.
Since then, we’ve repeated the same structured shoot annually, helping GenFi stay consistent with high-quality video content without the ongoing time commitment.
So, what’s our secret sauce?
It all starts with preparation. The GenFi team arrives with a detailed content outline, including the number of videos, subject matter, and talking points. While not fully scripted, their presenters have a strong handle on what they want to communicate, which keeps filming efficient and natural.
On our end, vLink sets the stage using a clean and versatile setup:
- A white cyc wall and stand-up desk
- Five-point lighting for optimal clarity and depth
- Three strategically placed cameras
Here’s how we capture every angle:
- Camera 1: A wide shot covering both presenters
- Camera 2: A medium or tight shot of the active speaker
- Camera 3: A top-down view of the tablet used for visuals
- Camera 4: A direct screen recording of the tablet for crisp overlays
GenFi rotates several partners through the studio during the day, and the result is a dynamic mix of engaging, insightful content. The content was informative, inspiring and positioned the Geni team as the trustworthy experts they are in their field.
This project is a prime example of how a well-planned, single-day shoot can yield an entire library of educational, thought leadership, or vlog-style videos. When you’re organized and focused, it’s entirely possible to maximize your budget and minimize production time—without sacrificing quality.
