Video Production in Phoenix, AZ
Chalk Content is a video production company for Phoenix businesses that need video to do a job: sell, recruit, launch, or make people remember the name. We're based in Gilbert and film across the Valley, for national brands like McDonald's, Mars Petcare, Replit and Advance Auto Parts and for Arizona names like NAU Online, Scott Homes and Portico. Our work has been recognized at Cannes Lions, D&AD and ADCAN, and earned a Vimeo Staff Pick.
What we make for Phoenix companies
Every project starts with the same question: what does this video need to make happen? The answer decides the format. These are the six kinds of work we do most, each with its own page, case studies and pricing notes.
Made in Arizona, for Arizona brands
A university's first campaign on streaming TV
NAU Online had never run on connected TV. We produced nine CTV commercials as a test slate: separate concepts the university could run against each other to find out which message actually moves prospective students, rather than betting the budget on one spot. More on our CTV work.

"The Scottsdale Life": a launch film about a place
Portico's launch film sells a way of living in Scottsdale instead of a floor plan: the light, the pace, what a day there feels like. It's the kind of film that comes easier when the crew already knows the Valley. More on our real estate work.

Other Arizona work includes the launch film for homebuilder Scott Homes, a brand film for Mas Amable, and projects for Urbana. Across all our work, Chalk videos have generated 50 million+ views and 300K+ leads for clients.
Why a Valley production team
Some Phoenix companies fly a crew in from Los Angeles when a project needs to look national. That means paying for travel and per diems, and a team scouting a city it doesn't know. A Valley-based team can scout in person, plans around the Arizona heat and light, and can come back for a pickup shot without booking flights.
That local knowledge shows up on screen. We've written up the best brand film locations in the East Valley from our own scouting, and our Phoenix commercial cost guide breaks down what local production actually costs, tier by tier.
How a Chalk project comes together
The same five steps run under every format, from a lean social spot to a multi-day campaign. Most companies skip the fifth.
Phoenix video production FAQ
You're based in Gilbert. Do you work with Phoenix companies?
Yes. Chalk Content is based in Gilbert and films across the whole Valley: Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert and Queen Creek. Arizona clients include NAU Online, Scott Homes, Portico, Mas Amable and Urbana, alongside national brands like McDonald's, Mars Petcare, Replit and Advance Auto Parts.
How much does video production cost in Phoenix?
It depends on scope more than anything else. As a guide, a lean single-day social spot runs about $3K–$8K, a full commercial with an original concept, casting and full post runs $8K–$25K, and multi-location campaign work runs $25K–$50K+. Brand films typically land between $10K and $75K+. The full breakdown is in our cost guide, and every project starts with a free consultation and a line-item budget.
What kinds of video do you produce?
Commercials for social and paid media, CTV spots for streaming TV, brand films, founder story and brand documentaries, corporate and recruiting video, testimonials, and launch films for Arizona builders and developments. We also deliver horizontal, vertical and square cut-downs so one shoot feeds every channel.
How long does a video project take?
It depends on the story work, the number of shoot days and the deliverables; a brand film usually takes four to eight weeks. When a date is fixed we compress: Replit's mobile launch film was delivered in 25 days, and Mars Petcare's conference film went from brief to delivered in 30.
Do you handle the script, casting and post-production?
Yes. Chalk is full-service: strategy, scripting, shot lists and casting in pre-production; crew, talent and cinema gear on the shoot day; then editing, sound design and color grading in post, plus a plan for getting the finished video seen.
