Real product.
Camera-free campaign.

A real 225 Productions mug became the starting point for a presenter-led marketing video. Product photographs, a developed concept, AI-created presenters and environments, and a finished edit bring the campaign together.

You supply the product and brand information. We direct the production without requiring you to perform on camera.

I’m Sedric Beasley, founder of 225 Productions and a U.S. Navy veteran who served aboard a submarine. I combine professional video production and photography with decades of systems engineering experience.

Discuss your video project

Common questions

Before you book

Do I have to appear on camera?

No. The service is designed for business owners who want professional marketing without being the on-screen talent.

Will the whole video be made by AI?

Not unless that approach fits your project and you approve it. AI is an optional production tool. Every project is directed, assembled, and finished by 225 Productions.

What do I need to provide?

For the $495 camera-free package, usually your logo, website or social links, details about the offer, and any photos, footage, or brand assets you want included. I will confirm the exact list before work begins.

What exactly does the $495 package cover?

It is a fixed-price, camera-free package for one 15 to 30-second video with one focused message, professional editing and sound, captions, a branded end card, one revision round, and one agreed final format. It may use approved client-supplied materials, licensed stock media, graphics, voiceover, or optional AI-based elements within the agreed concept.

Does the $495 package include filming or actors?

No. Original filming, actors, models, presenters, locations, crew, specialized equipment, travel, permits, props, wardrobe, and makeup are not included. A project requiring any of those items is live-action production and receives a separate written quote.

How is live-action video priced?

Live-action production is custom quoted based on the concept, filming time, personnel, locations, equipment, travel, editing, deliverables, and schedule. Third-party costs are itemized for approval before they are booked or incurred.

When are production costs paid?

A deposit is required before production is scheduled. Actor, location, permit, travel, equipment, and other third-party expenses may require advance payment before those resources are booked.

How quickly will you respond?

New inquiries are reviewed within one business day. Project timing is confirmed in writing before production starts.

Will a video guarantee Google or AI-search rankings?

No. No legitimate producer can guarantee placement in Google, Maps, or AI-generated results. The video gives your business an original, useful asset that can support a stronger presence across your website, YouTube, and social channels.

Is this an SEO service?

No. This is a video production and content service. Your finished video can support your website and platform visibility, but it does not replace technical SEO, a complete Google Business Profile, reviews, or accurate business information.

Do you work with competing businesses?

Yes. 225 Productions may serve businesses in the same industry, but confidential information, custom strategy, scripts, branding, and finished creative are kept separate. A competitor will not receive your custom concept.

Can I request market or category exclusivity?

Yes, but exclusivity is not included in the $495 package. Any category, geographic, or market protection must be defined in a separate written agreement and priced to account for the work 225 Productions must decline.
