Guide · Updated How to choose an AI video production company in Sri Lanka
Short answer
Choose an AI video company that can show finished work for real brands, has a human director, works in Sinhala, Tamil and English, gives a fixed quote with revisions included, delivers every format you need, and is clear about who owns the final video.
The checklist
- Real portfolio: finished ads for brands you recognise, not only demo clips.
- Human direction: someone writes the script and decides what is good enough.
- Quality control: no warped hands, drifting faces or broken logos in their work.
- Local knowledge: Sinhala, Tamil and English voice, Sri Lankan faces, places and festivals.
- Clear process: script and look frames approved before generation starts.
- Fixed quote: with the number of revision rounds written down.
- All formats: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 and 4:5, plus cut-down lengths.
- Usage rights: written confirmation of how and where you can use the final video.
- Speed: realistic timelines, for example about a week for a 30-second ad.
Questions to ask before you hire
- Can I see two or three ads you made for brands like mine?
- Who directs and edits the film, and how many people work on it?
- What happens if I don't like the first cut?
- Which AI tools do you use, and how do you keep characters consistent?
- Will I get vertical and square versions included?
