Curio's approach to rich media creation and production

At Curio, rich media is not an add-on — it’s a core part of how we design engaging, effective learning. We combine deep pedagogical insight with design craft, storytelling, and technical production to create learning experiences that are visually compelling and grounded in educational outcomes. 

Purpose 

Every media asset we create serves a defined learning purpose. Whether it's a teaching video that explains a concept clearly, an animation that brings abstract ideas to life, or an interactive activity that supports skill-building, our media is designed to support learning — not distract from it. We align media choices with course outcomes and learner needs from the start, ensuring each asset reinforces what matters most. 

This alignment starts in pre-production. Our learning designers collaborate with clients and subject-matter experts (SMEs) to determine which concepts are best supported through rich media, what format will deliver the most impact, and how media assets integrate with broader learning sequences. Media is not developed in isolation — it is part of a cohesive content plan. 

Partnership 

We treat media development as a collaborative process. Our team works closely with educators, SMEs, and client teams from concept through to delivery. We simplify the production experience with clear workflows, flexible recording options (including remote filming), and structured feedback loops. 

SMEs are guided through script development or supported to record without scripts if that feels more natural. Our video producers and animators work hand-in-hand with our learning designers to ensure media is not only high-quality but also pedagogically sound. We also bring the flexibility to work with in-house media teams, existing footage, or adapt materials for reuse. 

This partnership extends to brand and identity. We respect institutional branding, tone, and context — whether we’re working with a university’s in-house style or developing a new aesthetic for a professional learning audience. 

Polish 

Our production values reflect our commitment to quality. We use professional-grade tools to ensure high visual and audio standards — from multi-camera setups and 4K video to studio-quality animation and illustration. All video and interactive media includes closed captions, alt text, and is designed with accessibility in mind from the start. 

We manage media through structured stages — scripting, storyboard, draft, review, final — using platforms like Asana and SharePoint to maintain version control and visibility. We accommodate up to two rounds of client feedback and aim for sign-off with minimal rework by investing up-front in shared understanding and clear expectations. 

Ultimately, our goal is to create media that enhances learning, reflects your brand, and adds value to the learner experience. Whether embedded in Canvas, Moodle, Rise, or a standalone platform, Curio media is designed to be fit for purpose, easy to maintain, and engaging for today’s learners.
