OVERVIEW
VMware is a global tech giant with an illustrious track record, serving over 500,000 customers and collaborating with 75,000 partners worldwide. Backed by a dedicated workforce of over 30,000 professionals, the company consistently achieves billion-dollar revenues.
CHALLENGES
The objective was to train over 40,000 VMware employees in using the Do-It-Yourself intranet portal.Additionally, seamless collaboration was essential, as it involved teams spread across different time zones.
STRATEGY
To accelerate our work, we recognized the importance of obtaining feedback from our client. To ensure a smooth video production process, we established a straightforward approach.
We implemented clear processes for seeking feedback at various critical stages, including when we initially planned the video, during progress review meetings, scriptwriting, and other pivotal moments.
Our Process Included the Following Stages
01
Scriptwriting
We started by crafting the script to outline the video's content and flow
02
Storyboarding:
Next, we created a visual storyboard to plan the scenes and transitions.
03
UI animation:
We designed and incorporated animated UI elements into the video.
04
Video stitching with rough Voiceover:
The video clips were assembled, and a preliminary voiceover was added for context.
05
Final voiceover:
Lastly, we recorded and integrated the final voiceover to enhance the video's clarity and engagement.
SOLUTIONS
The systematic approach allowed us to maintain a seamless workflow and meet our project deadlines effectively.
Working with Global Teams
Our team at the Mumbai office demonstrated exceptional dedication. We maintained constant communication with the U.S.-based team, often accommodating early mornings and late nights to bridge the time zone gap. To foster synergy among the product tech and content teams, we adopted a collaborative approach that transcended departmental boundaries, languages, time zones, and cultural differences. This concerted effort allowed us to function seamlessly as a unified team, achieving our goals efficiently and effectively.
We successfully produced and managed video documentation of the source training platform within a tight schedule.
The final deliverables included 26 walkthroughs and training videos with approximately 90 mins of content.
