How to Create Effective Safety Videos for Your Organisation: A Step-by-Step Guide

Safety videos play a crucial role in educating both the public and employees across various industries in Singapore. These videos provide essential knowledge on how to handle emergency situations, prevent accidents, and comply with strict safety regulations. From fire evacuation drills to workplace safety protocols, safety videos do more than just inform; they help organisations foster a culture of safety, ensuring that everyone is aware of how to protect themselves and others in different scenarios.

In Singapore, where public safety and strict regulations are highly prioritised, these safety videos are a vital tool. They reduce risks, ensure compliance, and prepare people to respond effectively during critical situations. Ultimately, these videos contribute to creating a safer environment, both in public spaces and within organisations.

SPPL (Singapore Pools Limited) – Mix Live-Action and Animation

In high-traffic environments like office buildings, the safe evacuation of personnel during emergencies is critical. For Singapore Pools Limited (SPPL), fire evacuation videos play a key role in preparing employees for potential hazards. These videos ensure that staff know how to evacuate quickly and safely when faced with an emergency, such as a fire.

Production Focus

At Vicinity Studio, we created fire evacuation videos for SPPL that provide a comprehensive, step-by-step guide on how to escape the office building safely. The video effectively mixes live-action footage with animation to visually represent emergency procedures. This hybrid approach makes the content engaging, ensuring that employees can easily follow along and retain the information.

Key Elements of Fire Evacuation Safety Videos

The fire evacuation video for SPPL is designed to deliver clear instructions through a mix of live-action and animated sequences. It outlines the necessary steps employees must take when the fire alarm is triggered, how to locate emergency exits, and the safest routes to designated assembly points. The use of realistic visuals helps employees understand the layout of the office building, while animations highlight key safety points. This combination makes it easier for staff to visualise the steps required during an evacuation.

MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore) – Motion Graphics Animated Fire Safety Video

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) also recognises the importance of fire safety within its premises. To ensure all employees and visitors are aware of evacuation procedures, MAS commissioned Vicinity Studio to create an animated fire safety video. This video is designed to be played before the start of events and programmes in their halls and buildings, reinforcing fire safety protocols for all attendees.

Fully Animated Approach

Unlike the SPPL fire safety video, the MAS fire safety video is entirely animated. The use of animation makes it more flexible and adaptable to different audiences, while still delivering essential information about how to escape the building in the event of a fire. By incorporating clear visual cues and easy-to-understand instructions, the video ensures everyone is equipped with the knowledge they need to stay safe.

SBS Transit Ltd – Live-Action Work Safety Video

Workplace safety is just as important as emergency preparedness, especially for companies like SBS Transit Ltd, where employees are on the move daily. To ensure their drivers and staff remain vigilant about safety at work, Vicinity Studio produced a safety video emphasising the importance of maintaining a lookout at all times while on duty.

Practical Safety Advice for SBS Employees

The SBS Transit work safety video provides practical advice and tips on staying safe at work, including reminders for drivers to adhere to speed limits, ensure passengers are seated before moving the bus, and to be alert for any potential hazards. Real-life examples are used to show how quick thinking can prevent accidents, making this video an effective training tool for SBS staff.

SMRT (Singapore Mass Rapid Transit) – Live-Action Safety Values Video

At SMRT, safety is more than just a rule – it’s ingrained into the daily operations for both staff and commuters. Vicinity Studio worked with SMRT to reemphasise the importance of safety by resharing its core safety values. These values include accountability, vigilance, and teamwork, which are integral to ensuring the smooth and safe running of Singapore’s public transport system.

Reinforcing Safety as a Core Value

The safety values video created for SMRT highlights real-life examples of how these values are implemented in day-to-day operations, from train inspections to passenger interactions. The video combines real footage of SMRT staff with animated safety tips for passengers, making it easy for viewers to understand how safety is upheld across all levels of the organisation.

Conclusion

Safety videos are an essential tool for organisations across Singapore, helping to educate and train employees and the public on important safety protocols. Whether it’s ensuring safe evacuation during an emergency or promoting daily workplace safety, these videos help reduce risks and build a culture of safety.
