Fab + cleanroom production
Potential approved facility capture, subject to client-provided gowning, particle, vibration, safety, escort, confidentiality, storage, and review requirements. No public WERZ fab case study is claimed.
Brand films for semiconductors.
Planning for founder stories, public product content, packaging narratives, and approved facility capture. Fab or cleanroom work is accepted only after a client-led requirements and feasibility review.
Quick answer
How does a video agency produce inside a semiconductor fab or cleanroom?
Fab or cleanroom production requires the facility owner to define gowning, particle, vibration, safety, escort, confidentiality, storage, and review requirements. WERZ has no public semiconductor-fab case study; it evaluates each proposed scope against those client-provided requirements before booking.
Posture
Semiconductor production, fab-aware.
- Client-led
- Site, safety, and access requirements
- Case by case
- Fab or cleanroom project acceptance
- Written scope
- Capture, storage, and approval boundaries
- California
- Travel available after scope approval
Semiconductor video has a particular technical envelope. The product lives inside fabs, packaging facilities, and design labs — environments that do not tolerate the particle load, vibration, or lighting of a commercial film shoot. Most generic brand-film agencies cannot operate inside that envelope at all; the ones that try produce footage that the company cannot publish.
WERZ's adjacent public hardware reference is Cosmic Robotics: founder, factory, deployment, and aerial production for physical technology. It is not evidence of semiconductor-fab or cleanroom experience.
A semiconductor inquiry starts with the client's written environment requirements. WERZ then evaluates whether it can safely and accurately support the site, crew, equipment, capture, storage, review, and deliverables. A project is not represented as accepted or compliant before that review.
Capabilities
Semiconductor video, across formats.
Investor-deck brand films
Cinematic 60-90 second founder + product films built for Series A/B/C/D semiconductor decks. The asset that anchors the pitch and survives partner-meeting scrutiny.
Foundry + partner stories
Foundry-partner narratives, packaging-partner stories, and customer-deployment films. The trust assets that move multi-million-dollar wafer commitments.
Recruiting + team films
Founder, principal engineer, and senior-architect films that convert PhD-level chip-design talent. Mission and day-to-day content that outperforms job-post outreach.
Press + announcement video
Funding, capability, and tape-out announcements sized for press kits and industry distribution. Short-form video for trade press, IR pages, and PR newsroom assets.
Trade show + conference
Booth loops, hero reels, and on-stand video for SEMICON West, Hot Chips, ISSCC, IEDM, SPIE Photonics, and category-specific semiconductor industry events.
Hardware reference work
Closest reference: field-scale hardware build.
Process
Built for fab + cleanroom.
Technical + environment discovery
Before booking, we lock the technical envelope (what the chip / process / system actually does) AND the environment envelope (gowning level, particle posture, vibration tolerance, escort requirements). The shoot is scoped against both, not either.
Requirements gate
The client identifies confidentiality, safety, site-access, storage, and approval requirements. WERZ confirms feasibility before accepting the project.
Approved production
Any facility capture is limited to the accepted written scope and the facility owner's procedures. Crew and equipment are selected only after those requirements are known.
Investor-deck-ready delivery
Hero film, capability reel, social cutdowns, deck-embed loops, customer-story versions, and recruiting cuts — all from the same shoot package and all pre-cleared.
Use cases
Where semiconductor video earns its budget.
Series A/B/C/D semiconductor fundraising
Cinematic founder + product films built for the investor deck. The asset that replaces the 'demo here' slide and convinces partners who have already seen a hundred chip decks.
Foundry + packaging partner sales
Trust-building films for multi-million-dollar wafer commitments, packaging deals, and integration partnerships. Long enterprise sales cycles that turn on credibility.
Recruiting senior chip talent
Films that explain the work and the mission to PhD-level architecture, design, and physical implementation candidates — consistently outperforms job-post content.
Tape-out + product launch
Tape-out announcement video, product launch films, and capability reveals. Short-form video sized for press kits and industry distribution.
SEMICON, ISSCC, Hot Chips booth + on-stand
Booth loops, hero reels, on-stand video, and presentation-supporting films for semiconductor industry events.
Customer reference video
Customer-reference content from semiconductor customers (system integrators, end-product OEMs) inside the pre-cleared disclosure envelope.
FAQ
Common questions.
Can you shoot inside a semiconductor fab or cleanroom?
Potentially, after review. The facility owner must provide gowning, particle, vibration, safety, escort, confidentiality, storage, and review requirements. WERZ has no public semiconductor-fab case study and will confirm feasibility before accepting a shoot.
What does semiconductor video production cost?
Semiconductor brand films typically run $30,000-$80,000 for a single shoot package (hero film + capability cuts + investor-deck loop). Multi-site campaigns with fab, packaging, foundry-partner, and customer stories scale to $80,000-$200,000+. Pricing reflects environment overhead (gowning, escort, vibration), NDA workflow, and pre-cleared edit cycles.
How do you handle foundry, design, and packaging IP?
The client must define confidentiality, access, storage, retention, transfer, and approval requirements. WERZ reviews those controls before accepting the project and documents the workflow in the scope; it does not advertise a generic storage or compliance posture that may not fit the facility.
What semiconductor sub-verticals do you cover?
Chip design (analog, digital, mixed-signal), advanced packaging, photonics, MEMS, power semiconductors, RF, sensors, and semiconductor capital equipment. We do not specialize in semiconductor EDA software pure-play (those are SaaS shoots) — for those, see our SaaS industry page.
Are you based in Silicon Valley?
WERZ is based in Fresno, California, and can travel for an approved scope. It does not claim a Silicon Valley office or dedicated semiconductor crew base.
How does WERZ price video, web, or marketing work?
Pricing is scope-based, not template-based. We define deliverables, audience, locations, crew, and revisions before quoting — so the budget reflects actual production needs rather than a pre-set tier.
Can WERZ work from a fixed budget?
Yes. A fixed budget works best when deliverables, locations, revision rounds, and timeline are clear before production starts. We will tell you what is achievable inside the budget rather than promise more than the scope supports.
Are there ongoing retainers, or only project work?
Both. Most marketing and web programs run as monthly retainers (strategy, content, optimization). Video and brand projects are typically scoped per engagement, with optional content retainers for ongoing assets.
How long does a typical engagement take?
Discovery and strategy run 1–2 weeks; production and build run 3–8 weeks depending on scope; launch and iteration kicks off after delivery. Marketing programs are ongoing with measurable milestones at month one, month three, and month six.
Can you accommodate a tight deadline?
Yes, when the scope and approval lanes are tight. Rush projects work best when the team can lock decisions quickly and accept fewer revision rounds. We will tell you upfront if a deadline is unrealistic for the scope.
