The Challenge

Healthcare organizations needed to produce high-quality video content consistently, but traditional studio shoots were expensive, time-consuming, and difficult to scale. Physicians, staff, and leadership teams often lacked the time, technical knowledge, or tools required to record professional video content on demand. Existing workflows were fragmented, resulting in inconsistent storytelling, off-brand messaging, and inefficient production cycles.

Cyrano needed a mobile-first solution that allowed healthcare professionals to record polished, on-brand videos quickly, while ensuring each video followed a clear narrative structure and could be produced at scale without increasing costs.

The Design Solutions

I led the design of Cyrano Studio as a streamlined mobile recording experience built specifically for healthcare professionals. The app enables users to easily record a wide range of video content including physician bios, facility tours, patient testimonials, health education videos, procedure overviews, employee spotlights, leadership updates, and post-op instructions.

Cyrano Studio works seamlessly with Cyrano Video’s Storyboard product, which organizes each video into a clear narrative and sends recording tasks directly to participants. This task-based approach allows users to record multiple videos in a single session while maintaining consistency across messaging and branding. I designed the studio interface to minimize friction, guide users step by step, and reduce setup time, including support for a Bluetooth remote to streamline recording and eliminate the need for additional crew or equipment.

I played a key role in designing the Cyrano Studio App, working closely with the development team to create an intuitive user experience. The app integrates seamlessly with the portable Studio Kit, allowing users to record high-quality videos effortlessly. From the Bluetooth remote functionality to the streamlined recording tasks, every detail was crafted to ensure an efficient and user-friendly production experience.

Post-Production and Review

Refined Post-Production with Collaborative Feedback

In the post-production phase, I designed a collaborative review system within the Cyrano Studio App. This feature empowers users to provide feedback directly on video deliverables, ensuring every detail aligns with brand standards. By incorporating intuitive interfaces for approvals and revisions, I ensured that the process is both efficient and effective, ultimately leading to polished final videos ready for distribution.

The app helped healthcare teams scale their video content quickly without sacrificing quality or brand standards.

“We wanted to communicate better with all of our employees. It’s so important when we have just south of a thousand employees to make sure they feel connected to the important work that we’re doing and Cyrano can help us with that.”
