Video Adventures’ Spotlight: IVBCF

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

Groucho Marx used to say he wouldn’t join a club that would have him as a member. I used to think the same way. But that all changed back in 1998. Now I belong to several clubs, networking associations, like ABC, WEVA, BNI and local Chambers. One such group is the IVBCF; Inland Valley Business and Community Foundation.

The Inland Valley Business and Community Foundation, a non-profit organization, is dedicated to serving the community by providing a valuable service. Their members enjoy all the perks of the organization. The organization has been widely-recognized as the best of its kind. The membership is growing at a steady pace. With this growth, they have been able to accomplish more, and have a larger impact upon the community. They put on several fund raising events each year. And speaking from experience, they will welcome you with open arms. Inquire about how you can become a part of their growing membership. They are always looking for community-based volunteers as well. Volunteers aid the community in various ways.

Video Adventures’ Spotlight: Braja Mandala

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. So, this week we are Spotlighting one of our favorite wedding photographers, Braja Mandala. brajaIf you are a bride, she wants to give you your 15 minutes of fame. Well, actually your entire Wedding Day!  For that one day, you will be photographed like a movie star. She would love the opportunity to document every special person in your life and the connects you have. Braja says, “I have a passion for wedding photography. You’re in love and full of life. So getting the shot will be easy. After all, the two of you just click!”. She loves to take walks on the beach in her high heels. (I’m not sure how that works). But more important, she’d love to hear about your wedding day and possibly become your wedding photographer.

It’s always nice to shoot Wedding Video’s with great wedding photographers like Braja. When the bride hires both a professional Wedding Videographer and Wedding Photographer who work together, she’s going to receive the absolute best Wedding Video and Photos of her wedding day. And these are the two treasures that she and her husband will cherish forever!

Video Blogs 2

Wednesday, March 31st, 2010

In a recent survey, 400 corporations were asked about Digital Marketing Campaigns for their companies. The results showed 67% were already starting online video campaigns and 42% said they also planned to include Social Media. 77% said online video would be very important in growing their businesses. Here at Video Adventures, we are producing more and more Video Blogs for local businesses. Video Blogs are the same as your normal blogs, except they are a growing series of short videos on a blog page. These same videos are also being posted on YouTube, Facebook and the like, as well as websites. This is one of the most powerful tools to get your message out, promote your products and services, and educate your clients and prospects. The creative Video Blogs we are currently producing are just that, plus they are entertaining.

So, it’s my goal to capture your viewing audience’s attention within the first 5 seconds and then keep them interested while you present your message to them.

Anybody can set up a camera and make a video for YouTube and their website. I’ve seen plenty of these types of videos and many of them leave a less than impressive image of the company presented. So what does that say about their business? On the other hand, a professionally produced video for your Video Blog, that is creative and entertaining, draws your viewer into your message and shows you as the expert in your field. That’s very powerful. That’s where we come in. We want to make you look and sound as professional as you and your business are. We want to produce Video Blogs that work for you!

Here is the latest Video Blog we just posted for one of our clients, Wine and Jazz Magazine.
