Here are some helpful applications and benefits of video to consider:

• Readers prefer the interactive format video offers because it’s an easier, quicker method of transferring information. Audiences many times better absorb content this way compared to reading printed copy that takes much more time to comprehend and extract information deemed important to the reader.

• The combination of visual effects and sound captures an audience’s attention, promoting a more personal communication between a business and potential client. Offering worker profiles in the form of online video, for instance, is a great way of establishing trust with clients as you allow them to get to know your credible staff.

• Video creates new destinations for business online through video sharing sites, e.g., YouTube.com, Vimeo.com and Dailymotion.com. Having more terminals for your business’ information to be found greatly increases brand exposure.

• Video makes business more compatible for the online customer. Without an online presence, businesses can hardly expect to reach an audience that will translate into clients and thus profit earnings. New and rich media are necessary in this day and age for a business to grow, and online video makes sharing information and capturing an audience’s attention far more efficient than it’s ever been before.

There isn’t a faster way available to introduce your business and increase brand recognition than through this interactive means. If by the end of this post you haven’t already, start utilizing online video to market products and establish your business’ identity today. Your increased profitability will thank you.

Quality is often lacking in the “professional” video world. Buy a camera, take out an ad, and start shooting. This may be the most common formula for starting a video production company.

AC, Creative Producer of Seven Pictures, a 25-year veteran filmmaker, asks the question, “Does your video presentation match the quality of your corporation?”

“Some think that they are filmmakers because they buy a camera, take out an ad and start shooting. No, there is a tech and an art to filmmaking. There are lighting issues, framing decisions, background and sound choices. All these add up to a very discernable quality. Not to make it sound complicated, but you know that you need an expert to build a house, it’s just like that.”

“And aesthetics plays a key part. Even corporate video production can be made as an art or plain and simple. The communication is always clearer when created as a piece of art. You can see examples of this on the Seven Pictures video show room .”

Corporate Video Production

Corporate video production or your promotional video may not be the correct place to save money. If you are going low budget on production, you want to ensure that the standard and quality of your presentation matches the professional standard and quality of the product that your own company produces.

“A good video is where you don’t get distracted by errors or poor quality and you are just in it,” AC explains. “You understand and you listen to what was said, you remember it and you don’t forget it. Before you choose a company or even a friend or family member to make your video, watch what they have produced in the past. The difference is very noticeable.”

Budget-wise, you can make video in many price ranges. What we do is invest the budget in the production, and therefore improve the production value of the product. It’s a good idea to decide on a budget that you are willing to spend and let the person who will make the video know that budget. You will get your best production value that way.”
