The duration of implementing a content creation project for a brand typically ranges from 3 to 6 months, depending on the scope. This includes planning, production (e.g., film or animation), and execution across SchoolMedia’s platforms within the schools. Larger or more complex campaigns involving technologies like VR or interactive platforms may take longer, up to 12 months.
