In the Automotive sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Video Restoration delivers measurable results that transform how automotive professionals communicate with their audience.
Automotive video production demands precision cinematography that captures the emotional connection between driver and machine. Car reveal videos use dolly rigs, turntable platforms, and controlled studio lighting to sculpt reflections across bodywork. Outdoor driving footage requires camera cars with gyro-stabilized heads (Ronin 2, MōVI Pro) tracking at highway speeds. The audio dimension — engine notes, exhaust tones, door closure sounds — is as important as visuals for enthusiast audiences. Distribution spans dealer websites, YouTube (the dominant platform for car research), and manufacturer social channels. Budgets range from 2,000 euros for a dealer lot walkthrough to 50,000+ euros for a brand campaign spot. The primary KPI is test-drive appointment conversion rate.
Automotive purchases are deeply emotional — 70% of car buyers watch video before visiting a dealership. The challenge is creating content that conveys driving experience, interior quality, and brand prestige through a screen. Each vehicle segment (luxury, sport, electric, commercial) requires a distinct visual approach.
Dealerships compete for local visibility while manufacturers need global campaigns. Test drive videos, virtual showroom tours, and detailing content all serve different stages of the buyer journey. Electric vehicles add new challenges — communicating technology benefits without traditional engine sound.
A luxury car dealership created cinematic walkaround videos for every vehicle in stock. Online inquiries increased 92%, test drive bookings rose 45%, and average time-to-sale decreased by 8 days as customers arrived pre-qualified.
Automotive video accelerates every stage: vehicle walkaround videos increase qualified leads by 65%, test drive videos reduce showroom visits needed by 30%, and lifestyle brand films increase brand consideration by 48%. Dealerships with video-first digital strategies report 35% higher customer lifetime value.
1. Color Analysis: We review all footage, identify exposure/white balance issues, and establish the target look with mood references and LUT exploration.
2. Primary Correction: Exposure normalization, white balance correction, and overall color balance across all shots for consistency.
3. Creative Grade: Scene-by-scene color grading to achieve the desired mood, with custom power windows, secondary corrections, and film emulation.
4. Final QC: Broadcast compliance check (if needed), HDR/SDR delivery, and export of custom LUTs for future use.
Video restoration recovers degraded footage from VHS tapes, film scans, miniDV cassettes, and early digital formats — removing scratches, flicker, color fading, dropout lines, and interlacing artifacts. We use a multi-stage pipeline: first deinterlace and deflicker, then stabilize, then denoise, then restore color balance using reference frames or period-accurate color science. This service preserves institutional archives, family memories, and historical footage for modern use. Processing is slow due to the care required — expect 3-7 business days for 30 minutes of material. We deliver restored footage alongside the untouched original for archival comparison.
You receive: color-graded master in ProRes/DPX, custom LUT package, before/after comparison frames, HDR and SDR versions, and color-consistent stills for marketing.
