Ten Rules for Shooting in High Definition Video | St Louis Video Production

1. Never overexpose high definition video. There is no process that can bring back burned-out highlights.
2. Control highlights: HD has trouble with them.
3. Avoid using gain whenever possible.
4. Control exposure when you can, but if not, err on the side of underexposure, not overexposure.
5. 23.98 frames per second (fps) this is the most frequent choice for narrative storytelling.
6. 29.97 fps is usually preferred for sports.
7. A potential problem is too much depth-of-field. This is not a problem with full frame HD cameras as we have.
8. Another problem is seeing too much detail in things like makeup, sets, and wardrobe.
9. Shoot at 23.98 fps or 29.97, not 24 or 30. This is important for audio sync.
10. There are times when you will need to shoot actual 24 or 30 fps; consult with your producer or editor.

St Louis Video Production | Drone Plant Tour Taping

Here is some raw video tour production footage from a recent shoot.

We take great pride in the production skills of our video plant tours. To achieve the highest throughput, we make sure that everything in our video production of your plant is where it should be, when it should be there. We video tape with normal ground methods and we also shoot with an aerial drone to get those unique vantage spots not readily seen on a normal plant video tour.

When you watch the video, pay attention to the way we utilize our camera angles and editing. You won’t see anything out of place in our quality productions. We’d enjoy showing you more plant tours we have done these past few months.

Marketing Communication Strategies In Regards To WordPress

WordPress can be a very hard platform to use to publish your blog posts if you don’t understand how to use it properly. Many people assume it is easy to use, but it can easily become complicated.

If you plan to use WordPress for your site, you should only do so if you plan to have a responsive design. People access websites from all types of devices, and you want to make sure that any person who wants to view your site will be able to without any issues.

Make sure your sidebar is not too cluttered. The sidebars on most WordPress blogs are a chaotic mess, full of social media icons and ads and links. Prioritize what goes in your sidebar. Make sure visitors to your blog don’t have to search for anything they might be looking for.

Improve the look and style of the footer on your wordpress website. This is very important as it is the first thing that your viewer is going to see. Include a short bio that includes all of your details or important links that pertain to what you want to get across.

Do not let your theme get stale. The first thing you should do if you notice a decrease in traffic is check and see when you last changed your theme. As your site grows and changes, the theme should as well. Make sure that it accurately reflects your brand, and you should see a rise in traffic.

It is relatively easy to include video blogging in your WordPress site. The time spent in preparation is time well spent. A lot of Internet users respond well to visuals. A video can show them things that the written word just can’t convey, and as a result, it can be a very powerful tool.

Your WordPress is nothing without plugins, and lucky for you, there are plenty to choose from. However, it is very important that you use caution when installing plugins and keep in mind that they aren’t disposable. You can uninstall them, but most of the time they will still affect your content and leave shortcodes behind.

Add Video Production

It is easy to use WordPress to add video blogging to the website. Spending a little extra time preparing your website will save you time in the long run. Internet users are mainly visual. A well produced video can show them things that the written word just can’t convey, and as a result, it can be a very powerful tool.

Many people are responding to videos, so consider this option. Video is not only becoming more popular, it is also becoming much easier to use. WordPress, in its current version, makes the use of video quite easy. This can really increase traffic by drawing those who are less inclined to read.

You can insert media into your posts just by pasting the URL where you’d like the media to appear. For example, paste in a YouTube video just by putting the URL within the text where you want the video to play. Be sure that the URL doesn’t turn blue – if it does, highlight it and click the unlink button.

Looking to embed a YouTube video to add a little multimedia to your WordPress site? You can do it really easily. All you need to do is paste the YouTube video share link right into your post’s body. Place it exactly where you want it to appear on the page. The YouTube video will magically appear in your post!

It is not possible to learn everything there is to know about WordPress overnight. However, if you take the time to follow the simple advice in this article and keep learning more, you will master it in no time.

Create a marketing video to build your lead generation.

When it comes to developing a successful business over the long term, lead generation is essential. Learning how to build a network of contacts and potential future business prospects can give any business a new lease on life. Keep reading to gain some terrific insights on how the most successful entrepreneurs do just that.

Create engaging video content. Lead generation relies a lot on building trust with your product or service. Show and tell your products and services through video marketing. Smart targeted content does a lot to help get you there. Your target audience will be more likely to do business with you if they feel you are providing great service and that you legitimately care.

Ask your current customers to pass on word about your company to those they know. Your current loyal customers are the best lead generation asset you have. Their word of mouth can really mean a lot to generating new customers. Just them sharing your company information with video in social media can be surprisingly powerful.

Use videos and images to tell your brand’s story. Article writing is a powerful form of content marketing for leads, but videos and photos can be even more powerful. This is especially true for mobile screen visitors to your site. Reading content on mobile devices can be less than optimal, but a photo or video can tell the story really well.

Create an interesting video on Youtube for your business. If you have a product or service to sell, this is a great way to demonstrate it. Include a link that goes directly to your website to make it easy for viewers to find out more information about what you offer.

There can be little debate about the essential nature of lead generation in creating and sustaining a winning business. Sadly, not enough businesspeople have taken the time to learn new techniques when it comes to building these critical contacts. The information presented above should start to remedy that problem for many.
