Empathy is a phenomenon that goes beyond the psychological aspects of human beings and has come to be understood as a multidimensional skill. This work is an experience report of a process of construction and validation of an educational video that addresses the importance of Empathy as a fundamental element in the quality of interpersonal relationships. Methodological study developed in two stages: construction and validation of educational video. The construction of the educational product adopted CTM3 Method which advocates the making of educational products considering three stages, namely: (C) Conception of the educational product; (T) Theoretical framework; and (M3) Methodological framework, which is based on three theories: Transactional Analysis, Multisensory Exploration, and Neurolinguistic Programming. The structuring of the aforementioned educational product took place between the months of May and June 2019. The product was validated by expert judges in a special session. The video is under a Creative Commons License and made available on the EDUCAPES Platform. The content consisted of scenes, images, music, narration in Portuguese and subtitles available in English and Portuguese in two different versions, which can meet elements of the proposed method. Through this product, it is possible to reflect and decide for empathetic attitudes, stimulating attitudes that will surely be able to positively intervene in social life.
