Greenville Manufacturing Video

Manufacturing companies today need to promote their products and or services, train their employees and market their brand.  There are many ways producing video.  In this Greenville Manufacturing Video we used the tracking effect to accent the titles.

According to wisegeek.com: “The basic idea behind motion tracking is that video frames can be analyzed in order to follow the position of an object through time. One common use of motion tracking is in video editing, where it can be used to capture the movements of a person or other object. These movements may then be mapped to a computer generated image, as is commonly seen in movies and television shows.”

Big Rapids Business Makes Fudge

The Old Pioneer Store and Kilwin Chocolate is a Big Rapids business that makes fudge.  Walking into the Old Pioneer Store is like stepping back in time… a bit.  According to their website, “You will step back in time to experience the nostalgia of an Old-fashioned soda fountain complete with vintage apothecary shelves that were salvaged from a local drug store operating in the 1800’s. The soda fountain has a marble serving counter and is flanked by porcelain base wooden stools that feature a 10-ft brass foot rail. We enjoy serving Old Fashioned sodas, Kilwins malts, shakes, and delicious hot fudge sundaes all served in real glass dishes. ”  http://www.theoldpioneerstore.com/

In this video Brian Rose shares his love of what he does… and it shows.  Not to mention I wish we had smell a vision.  This was a shoot that made us all hungry.

While shooting this segment the cutest thing happened.  Brian and I were done with the interview and b-roll of him making fudge.  We wanted to get people at the ice bar.  Up to that point the store was busy.  When we were ready however, tumbleweeds were found.  So, we went out on the street to find a family to be our customers.  We found mom, grandma and this adorable little girl.  Mom and grandma were not interested in being on video but gave permission for the little girl.  The shot when she saw the cone Brian had made was reveled… was a reaction so real – I knew it was the golden nugget shot we were looking for.  Real, not stage and yes she enjoyed her ice cream.  Check out the video above and you will see this awesome shot.

Deer Ranch St Ignace – Coolest Video Shoot

One of the coolest videos shoots I have been on was at the Deer Ranch St Ignace.  The Deer Ranch in St. Ignace, Michigan, is known as the oldest live whitetail exhibit in North America.  A great family experience where you can see Michigan Whitetail Deer and fawns including white deer all in a natural setting which you can photograph and feed while walking along a nature trail.

Getting an opportunity to pet this young buck I found his antlers to be very hot to touch.

Deer Ranch

He loved to be petted.

Now what made this so cool.  This young buck made his way to use to be our star.  Once the camera was off, I was able to pet this guy.  It was like petting a cat.  The more you scratched it behind the ears, the more it would rub against my body.  At times lifting me up – the whitetail deer is very strong.  This buck was in velvet.  Very soft to the touch and when you rubbed its antlers – it loved it.

 

Once tidbit I found interesting and I guess I knew this without knowing this (if that makes any sense) – their antler when in velvet are very hot to the touch.  Like a young child with a high temp.  This makes perfect sense as there is blood flowing under the velvet.  I guess until I touched it myself – that correlation never hit my brain waves.  Any ways – really cool.

 

According to the Deer Ranch St Ignace website, “The Deer Ranch in St. Ignace first opened in 1950. Since then, the Deer Ranch has grown to include: whitetails, white whitetails and albino deer.”  All I know is it was a blast and an experience I was able to share with my son. Priceless…. all in Pure Michigan!
