Promotional Videos For The Web

People connect with people, not with electronics or graphic designs.  Imagine your website with an HD video starring YOU and your product. Visitors to your site will grasp a new understanding of who you are and how easy and fun you are to work with.

A professional web-based video can, for example:

• Stand alone as a marketing tool in and of itself,
• Be a linkable and promotable end destination on your marketing campaign,
• Exemplify your elevator speech to educate potential clients about your company,
• Creatively and publicly recognize deserving employees or customers,
• Enhance or clarify a proposal or resume,
• Simply explain a complicated process or concept, or
• Become a de facto pre-screening process for clients.

A web promotional video is a worthy investment which will pay dividends for years.  It is often the relationship stepping stone for new clients who find you on the web – It’s literally the difference between clicking your “contact” link, or going back to Google.

Based on the specifications that each project demands, you will have full access to use videos we create for you in any way you’d like. Commonly, we deliver web-ready HD videos on a flash drive, DVD, or cloud-based file-sharing applications.

• “Winslow Homer’s Productive Day” for the Portland Museum of Art and The Stache Pag

Event Coverage

Regardless of the size, it takes a lot of work to organize an event.  Figuring how to pay for it, planning the decorations, lining up the music, and securing insurance (among way too many other things) can all be necessary evils organizers have to face. For your events, you don’t rest until you follow through with each last detail.

Where a sub-par event video can make all that work look sloppy, professional event videos will ensure a beautiful, lasting image of your treasured event.

Our team has a diverse background and mad skills, putting us at home in a variety of live event settings.  This is largely due to the fact that we too are event planners and producers.  We’ve been in your shoes and put ourselves there each year, so we know exactly what you are dealing with and what type of communication you need out of your subcontractors.

An event video not only gives your customers a chance to relive the event again and again, but is a valuable tool in selling sponsorships and tickets for future events.  Can you say tasteful product placement and marketing real estate?
