[ AI Brand Studio ]
AI video production in Tampa Bay, run like your creative director.
Brand films, commercials, and digital twins. Made by a marketer, not just a video vendor. ARP Visuals is a fully dedicated AI creative agency based in St. Petersburg, serving Tampa Bay and clients everywhere — founded November 2024 by Franklin Rivera, a Best of the Bay 2025 finalist with 22 years in sales and marketing at Novartis, GlaxoSmithKline, and Johnson & Johnson, and founder of V2M2 Group, a digital marketing agency that served clients worldwide from 2011 to 2024.
[ Why it works ]
What AI video production is, and why Tampa Bay brands are switching.
AI video production creates cinematic footage without a traditional crew, location, or set. Every frame is directed, generated, and finished by a small team, so a story that would have needed a shoot, permits, and a week of editing can be made in days.
- Speed. Typical turnaround is 7 days. Campaigns that took weeks to schedule can be in market this month.
- Range. No limits on locations, wardrobe, weather, or props. A hotel can appear in any season, a medspa treatment in any setting.
- Cost. No crew, travel, set, or permits to pay for, so the budget goes into the film itself.
[ The retainer ]
What we make.
- 01Brand films & commercials
15–90 second films for your website, social channels, and ads. From $4,500.
- 02Digital twins
An AI version of you or your spokesperson that can speak, present, and appear in dozens of videos without another shoot. From $1,750, with ongoing twin content at $500/month for 4 videos.
- 03Monthly content retainers
A steady flow of videos with social management and monthly strategy. From $3,000/month.
- 04Memories in Motion
Photos and stories turned into cinematic keepsakes and memorials. $500 for up to 90 seconds; original music is a $150 add-on.
Strategy comes first. Most video studios start with a camera. We start with your business: who you need to reach, what they need to see, and what you want them to do. Our founder has run marketing for global brands and his own digital agency, so your film has a job to do.
Traditional experience, AI speed. V2M2 Group, Inc. produced video and content for clients worldwide for 13 years before AI, and our founder taught marketing at Aurora University (MBA-level Marketing Management, plus social media marketing, website development, and consumer behavior) from 2017 to 2020.
Fully dedicated AI. Not a traditional shop with an AI add-on — our whole pipeline is built around AI-native production, directed by one author who stands behind every frame.

Questions we hear most.
-
How much does AI video production cost in Tampa Bay?
Memories in Motion keepsakes are $500 for up to 90 seconds. Digital twins start at $1,750. Brand films and commercials start at $4,500. Monthly content retainers start at $3,000. Final pricing depends on length, number of assets, and custom work, and we give you a fixed quote before we start.
-
How is AI video different from a traditional shoot?
A traditional shoot needs crew, locations, equipment, and scheduling. We build every frame digitally, so changes to the script or setting don't require a reshoot, and production takes days instead of weeks.
-
Will it look fake?
Not the way we make it. Our work is directed like a film, with consistent characters, lighting, and sound design — the same craft decisions a traditional cinematographer makes. Our founder was a Best of the Bay 2025 finalist for Best Videographer, the only AI filmmaker on that list.
-
How long does it take?
Typical turnaround is 7 days.
-
Do I own the finished video?
Yes, in the sense that matters: you get full usage rights to your finished video, for any business purpose. Our client agreement also lets ARP Visuals show the finished video in our own marketing, so it can appear in our portfolio.
-
Can you make a digital twin of me or my spokesperson?
Yes. We need written consent and a set of reference photos and audio. We don't use a person's likeness without it, and we explain how the data is handled.
-
Do you work with businesses outside Tampa Bay?
Yes. We're based in St. Petersburg and work with clients nationwide by video call.
-
What if I don't like the concept?
The concept is free. You only pay when you approve a project.
-
Do you handle social media and ads too?
Yes. Our retainers include social management and can include paid-ad creative.
-
Can you do ongoing content, not just one film?
Yes. That's what the monthly retainers are for.
