How a training video helped keep the lights on!

Unipers’ corporate training video taught their engineers best practice.

When Uniper decided to introduce a new system for solving engineering problems, they decided the best way to teach it was with a training video.

Often when engineering problems occur arriving at a solution, and then ensuring that solution is implemented, can be difficult.

To overcome this Uniper wanted to train staff to use a new root cause analysis tool, using a case study video.

The advantage of using a case study in training videos is the relevance is obvious to the learner, and the story makes the learning more enjoyable, leading to higher retention.

A narrative script was produced by the lead stakeholder, which was then tweaked by us and a shot list prepared.

Over the course of two days at Grain power station in Kent, we shot a re-enactment of the incident being analysed. This Included role playing, the tool being used, and interviews discussing the case study incident.

A separate narration was also made for the video to talk the viewer through the story and explain key points.

Motion graphics were then produced in house and a first cut output to allow for revisions and tweaks from feedback.

The video has been rolled out across Uniper to help manage engineering issues and keep the lights on for everyone!

This video is an excellent example of using a case study, where the company’s own staff re-enact their roles.

This training spreads best practice as quickly, saving time and ensuring maximum retention.

Agile production was central to making the delivery of this corporate training video easy for the client.

It allowed us to adapt the script to suit circumstances on the day, and be inclusive of stakeholder feedback afterwards.
