The Oklahoma oilfield offers some unique challenges for 18 wheeler trucks when operating on dirt roads. When these roads become wet with rain or snow, heavy trucks get bogged down in the mud and they get stuck. Often the driver would have to call someone to pull them out.  Truck manufacturer Freightliner, along with a national transportation company, asked if KJ FilmWorks could develop a video that would help with driver training.  These trucks are very high tech and can handle most situations but special training is required. KJ Filmworks took a new Freightliner truck through several scenarios in the deep mud.  We demonstrated how the truck reacted in different situations, and how to set-up the truck to deal with each type of road condition.  Using many cameras mounted all over the vehicle, we could show what was happening.  The video was a success, saving the operators a great deal of time and money.  The savings came from not having the expense of hiring someone to pull the truck from the mud and reduced maintenance costs from damaged trucks.

The challenge was to quickly create custom contractor orientation videos for 40 natural gas processing plants all over the USA, as well as 6 offshore gas platforms, in English and Spanish. Using our template, our writer/producer created the scripts, storyboards, shot lists and scheduled a month-long video production timetable.  The KJ FilmWorks crew traveled to every one of the locations, flew in helicopters to the offshore facilities, and filmed all the footage needed to feature each site-specific location. We saved them thousands of dollars producing all of the videos at the same time. All of the videos carried a consistent message in 2 languages, and were delivered on time, and on budget.

Many of our industrial clients require that anyone that enters the facility must go through an orientation process.  Several of our clients have expressed concern that a great deal of time is spent when a contractor, visitor or new employee arrives at their site.  This requires staff time, ranging from one to several hours. But it is deeper than just staff time.  When a contractor arrives at your site they are on the clock.  You are paying them to sit through orientation. The solution: KJ created custom site-specific orientation videos that were accessible from their company E-Learning systems.  When a new contractor or visitor is scheduled to arrive, they are sent a link a few days before.  They watch the videos, take the test and arrive at your location ready to work.

This case study highlights two of our clients who saved money and time with custom-made training videos.  One is a regional electric generating operation with several facilities.  And the other is a large natural gas plant company with more than 40 facilities. The challenge was both had a high volume of contractors that required orientation on an annual basis.  Both found that a great deal of office productivity was lost running multiple crews through orientation each week and found the orientation process was not consistent. Now contractors watch a companywide orientation that features their employees, their facilities, and visually showcases exactly what is required while on property.  This created a uniform look and a consistent message throughout their companies.
