Video Brochures for Magazines & Publishing
The publishing industry understands better than anyone that print and video are not competitors — they are complements. A magazine that moves. A book that speaks. An annual report that plays. These are not concepts from the future; they are products that M&M Tech manufactures today.
A publishing video brochure embeds an LCD video screen directly into premium printed packaging — so the editorial quality, the typography, and the print craftsmanship of the publication is preserved, while video content adds a dimension that print alone has never been able to deliver. It is the physical format that bridges the gap between the printed page and the digital screen.
M&M Tech supplies magazine and publishing video brochures to media groups, magazine publishers, book publishers, corporate communications teams, annual report producers, and publishing agencies worldwide. View pricing or request a sample.
How Publishers & Media Brands Use Video Brochures
Magazine Media Kits & Advertising Sales
A magazine's advertising sales team uses a video brochure as their media kit — playing audience data, readership demographics, and editorial highlights in a physical format handed to brand managers and media buyers. A media kit that moves commands far more attention at a pitch meeting than a PDF on a screen.
Annual Reports & Corporate Publications
Corporate communications teams use video books and video folders to present annual reports and investor communications in a format that goes beyond the printed document. A CEO's video message, factory footage, and impact statistics — all embedded into the physical report delivered to shareholders and stakeholders.
Book Launches & Author Promotion
Publishers and literary agencies use video mailers to send press packs for major title launches — playing an author interview, a book trailer, and critical endorsements to book editors, journalists, and literary influencers. A physical press pack that plays the author's voice is remembered where an email press release is not.
Subscription Acquisition Campaigns
Magazine groups targeting high-value subscriber segments use video mailers to demonstrate editorial quality — playing highlights from recent issues, video interviews, and behind-the-scenes content — as a premium direct mail piece that drives subscription sign-ups far more effectively than a standard mailing.
Premium & Collector Editions
Publishers producing limited edition, collector, or anniversary publications use video boxes and video books to create a physical product that goes beyond print alone — a collector's piece containing both the publication and a video companion, commanding a price premium and driving press coverage.
Awards, Events & Sponsorship Packs
Media groups and publishing associations use video folders to present awards sponsorship packages and event partnership proposals — playing case studies, audience data, and event highlights in a premium physical format that justifies the investment being requested.
The publishing industry has spent decades defending the value of print against the rise of digital. The answer was never to abandon print — it was to make print do more. A publishing video brochure does exactly that. It combines the editorial credibility, tactile quality, and permanence of print with the emotional impact, storytelling power, and engagement rates of video.
For advertising sales teams, it demonstrates audience and editorial quality in a format that brand buyers can hold. For corporate communications, it transforms a statutory obligation — the annual report — into a genuine engagement tool. For book publishers, it gives the author a voice before the reader turns the first page. In every case, it makes print do something print has never been able to do alone.

Which format should we choose for this campaign?
For hand delivery and sales meetings, video brochures or video business cards are practical. For direct mail, choose video mailers. For premium product samples or gifts, a custom video box is usually stronger.
