Video Production Services
• They have appropriate equipment. Forget about the digital cameras that tourists carry around the city. A good video company will have professional cameras, lighting and audio equipment, top computers with the latest software for editing and creating effects. Ask your potential provider about all their tools for the productions stage and, if you have any doubt, ask again. If you are not convinced that they’re using the best equipment, look around again.
• A unique look. Think about this: if the company you are about to hire doesn’t give itself a distinctive image, can it do so for you? Since the moment you open their website you should feel that you know them and that you can trust them. The colours they choose the language they use and the samples of Video para Empresa they pick to show you as a potential client, everything speaks loudly about who they are and what are they able to do to make you stand out.
• They are a crew of experts. A one-man orchestra is something fun to see but, if you want great music, you have to have musicians that have mastered an instrument and can play alongside other masters. A video company works like that. From the beginning, you need people that can tell a story and know what the core of your message is. They will build a dramatic arc with all its parts to be shown in less than 2 minutes (an incredibly difficult thing to do). Then, the videographer will enter the scene and produce great images that can tell that story, with the assistance of lighting and sound engineers. After that, the post production team will spice up your video with great effects. No single person has so many talents and can display them at the same time.
• Client relationships. Making a video that advertises your service or product has to be a process that includes you. No one knows better than you what you do and how. When you are trying to work with a company that doesn’t take your opinion and knowledge into account, it’s a waste of time. From the start you know that approach will be a failure, because you feel left outside of your own business. When approaching a video professional always look to develop some “chemistry”. It may seem unimportant but, in the end, it is what will give you the trust and confidence to express yourself and make your own proposals.
