Problem

Most B2B launch videos fall flat.

The category has settled for templated work that disappears in the feed. We hear the same four complaints from teams who land here after a launch that didn't land:

  • Most launch videos look templated.

    Stock motion, a generic VO, a feature reveal set to a stock track. The feed treats it like noise, and so does the buyer.

  • The moment is missing.

    A list of what shipped is not a launch. Without a story and a sense of arrival, nobody feels like they have to pay attention.

  • They die in the scroll.

    If the first frame doesn't stop the thumb, the launch never happens. Most B2B announcement videos lose the feed before the logo lands.

  • They don't build any momentum.

    Off-the-shelf mills produce work that lands flat and forgettable. A real launch needs energy, craft, and a film that feels like an event.

Why Apollo Studio

Why teams choose Apollo for launch videos.

Four reasons our launch work builds momentum where the templated mill output most B2B teams are shown falls flat.

01

B2B specialists, not generalists.

We write and direct launch videos exclusively for B2B and tech. Your category, your buyer, and the stakes of a release are inputs we already understand.

02

Story before motion.

Every launch starts with a script that finds the moment first (why this matters, why now) and only then turns it into a film. Energy without story is just a flashy montage.

03

In-house cinematic craft, not a mill.

High-energy films produced by our own team: direction, motion, sound, color. No templates, no offshore shop, no race-to-the-bottom rendering.

04

Built to stop the scroll.

A launch lives or dies in the feed. We cut a hero film, a LinkedIn-native teaser, and the announcement assets your team needs, and we build them to create signal from frame one.

What we make

Four kinds of launch video. One studio.

Most launches benefit from a hero film plus a feed-native teaser and a paid cut. We pick the approach based on the moment, not the budget.

Product launch films

The flagship film for a new product or platform. Built to make the release feel like an arrival, not an update.

Feature announcement videos

Sharp, high-energy films for a major feature drop. Best when you need the feed to feel something about what just shipped.

Funding & milestone videos

Films that turn a raise, a milestone, or a moment into a statement. Best for momentum, recruiting, and signaling where you're headed.

Brand & rebrand films

A cinematic reintroduction. Best for a rebrand, repositioning, or category move that needs to land as the new standard.

The work

B2B launch videos that actually create signal.

Artra

Launch video

Turned a product launch into an event the feed couldn't scroll past.

Mindsmith

Product launch video

Made a new AI product land with momentum from the first frame.

Mural

Brand film

Positioned a category-defining platform as the standard everyone else measures against.

Process

From script to launch day in five phases.

A focused workflow built for senior teams. You give us the release; we give you a script, a moment, and a launch film that makes your announcement feel like an event.

Start a project
  1. Align

    Discovery & the moment

    Understand the release, the audience, the stakes; nail why this launch matters before anything else moves.

  2. Plan

    Scripting & pre-production

    Script, storyboard, shot list, creative direction. You approve before we render or shoot.

  3. Build

    Production

    Cinematic capture, animation, or both, run by a senior team that has launched products before.

  4. Polish

    Post & edit

    Editing, motion, sound, and color, taken to a finish that feels like an event, not an assembly.

  5. Ship

    Delivery & launch day

    Hero film plus cuts sized for the channels it'll run on (LinkedIn, paid, site, sales), ready for the announcement.

FAQ

Launch video questions we hear most.

What is a launch video?

A launch video is a high-energy, cinematic film built to announce something, whether a new product, a major feature, a funding round, or a rebrand, and make it feel like an event. In B2B, launch videos live on LinkedIn, in paid social, on the announcement landing page, and across launch-day assets. The best ones stop the scroll, build anticipation, and position the release as the new category standard.

What is the difference between a launch video and an explainer video?

An explainer video communicates a product's value as clearly and quickly as possible. It's evergreen, lives at the top of the funnel, and earns the click. A launch video is built for a moment: it's high-energy and cinematic, designed to create signal in the feed and make an announcement feel like an event. Explainers teach. Launch videos make people pay attention.

What is a launch video used for?

Launch videos create momentum around a release. Common moments: a product or platform launch, a major feature announcement, a funding round or milestone, and a rebrand or repositioning. Common placements: LinkedIn and paid social on launch day, the announcement landing page, sales and partner outreach, and recruiting. A single launch film can be cut into a hero version, a LinkedIn-native teaser, and a paid cut.

How long should a launch video be?

For B2B, the sweet spot is a tight 60 to 90 seconds for the hero film, with a 15 to 30-second teaser cut for the feed. The launch film has to earn attention fast and build to a moment: long enough to feel cinematic, short enough that the feed actually finishes it. We typically build the story around a hero master and cut down from there.

How much does a launch video cost?

A premium B2B launch video from Apollo is scoped to each project rather than priced off a rate card, and covers script, storyboard, production, motion, sound design, and final masters cut for the channels it will run on. There are no surprise add-ons. When teams plan several pieces around a launch, or several launches a year, we bundle the pricing and bring the per-video cost down meaningfully.

How long does a launch video take?

We're built for the pace fast-moving B2B teams already work at. Most launch projects run on a focused timeline with regular checkpoints: script and storyboard before any production begins, then a single review cycle on the cut, then delivery in every format you need for launch day.

What kinds of launch videos do you make?

Product launch films, feature announcement videos, funding and milestone films, and brand and rebrand films. Most launches benefit from a hero film plus a feed-native teaser and a paid cut. Choice of approach is a story decision, built around the moment, not a budget decision.

How do you make a launch video stop the scroll on LinkedIn?

It starts with the first frame. A launch film has to earn attention before anyone reads the caption, so we open on a moment, not a logo, and design for sound-off viewing with motion, pacing, and captions that carry the story. Then we cut a feed-native teaser sized for how people actually watch on LinkedIn, so the launch creates signal instead of getting buried.

What makes a great B2B launch video?

Four things. First, a clear sense of why this moment matters, and why now. Second, a first frame that stops the thumb before the buyer reads a word. Third, cinematic craft and energy that make the release feel like an event instead of an update. Fourth, cuts sized for the real placements (hero film, LinkedIn teaser, paid) instead of a single length cropped for everything.

How do we choose a launch video agency?

Look for four things. First, real B2B specialization, not a generalist agency that occasionally does tech. Second, story-led work built around the moment, not feature lists set to motion. Third, in-house cinematic craft (writing, production, motion) rather than work farmed out to mills. Fourth, a senior team that can move at the pace fast-moving B2B teams already work at. Ask to see launch work in your category, ask who actually writes the script, and ask how they'd cut the same film for launch day across channels.
