Preserve videotape memories by transferring-to DVD.
Preserve videotape memories by transferring to DVD and making copies to share with family and friends.
Preserve videotape memories by transferring to DVD is an ideal way to share those memories with family and friends. What a great birthday, anniversary and Christmas gift. This is one gift you can not find in a store. Heck, it is right there in your closet, under the TV or stored in a box somewhere.
At DW Video we can get up to 2 hours onto a DVD.
Unlike some box stores we can combine multiple tapes onto one DVD. The key is as long as the time does not exceed two hours in length. We know people do not always fill up the videotape. For example, one time I had a lady bring in well over one hundred videotapes – VHS, VHS-C and Mini-DV. There was anywhere from 2 minutes to 4 hours on each tape. NOTE: Four hours meant it was not recorded in the 2-hour mode. These had to be put on two separate DVDs. Remember, only two hours per DVD. Back to the story…. She had every tape numbered in the order she wanted. Each tape was put on as to maximize the two hour DVD. Meaning some tapes had three, four sometimes up to six tapes on one DVD. The first two tapes are at $25.00. The base price for our Video to DVD Transfer. Then $5 per additional tape. The project of over 100 DVD’s made 30-40 DVD’s.
Preserve videotape memories by transferring to DVD with our in-house transfer service. We can transfer the following videotape formats to DVD: Betacam, BetaCamSP, VHS (NTSC, PAL, or SECAM), SVHS, VHS-C, 8mm, Hi-8, Digital8, miniDV, DVCam, 3/4″ (U-Matic).

Keeping Employees safe with a training safety video produced by DW Video,

At DW Video we not only work in the communities mentioned, we cover the great state of Michigan. Have camera… will travel. Our job is to tell your story. From promotion to training and safety videos that is our job and we do it well.
According to Greg Schuetz, “I am the Human Resources Director at Steeltech Ltd. Steeltech is a foundry that produces stainless steel castings. It is my responsible for the safety of our employees.”
People today learn by watching. They learn by observing the right way to do a task and then with practice master the job. At DW Video we tell your story.
“Duane produced safety videos for our facility. They highlighted equipment that can be hazardous if not operated correctly”, states Greg. “So far, we have made 3 videos and are planning on producing other ones for our company.”
[youtube_sc url=”http://youtu.be/rWO1IOr6uOY” title=”Safety%20Video” rel=”0″]
It all begins with a script that provides the content and provides a shot list when it comes time to pull out the cameras. When capturing digital video it includes a series of long shots to establish where we are and close ups to highlight the detail of what is being demonstrated.
According to Greg, “I like working with Duane, because he is flexible on scheduling and working with us during production. He learns the process of the equipment that we are highlighting and understands the nature of what we’re doing and the safety features that are important to highlight for our people. He is also very responsive. Recently, I had to make a dvd for a doctor regarding a workers compensation issue. I had the video on my cell phone. The doctor needed it right away and Duane was able to do it the same day and he down-loaded off my phone and loaded it on to the dvd while I waited.”

Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords is part of our next 30 day challenge.
The ongoing need to feed the beast I call the Google Monster with Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. As mentioned earlier the results of my 90 Day Blog/SEO challenge was successful. It showed my site beginning to reach key market areas. For what my business does we could be hired and work anywhere. At times we travel. Realistically my business shines in Michigan. In general terms a number of communities within that area.
For the next 30 days or so my new challenge is building Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. Consider using location-based searches if your main market is in one region. When searching for a business in your area, search engine users will usually include their location in the search. Otherwise it gives you results from other states, not helpful if you need a roofer now. So, “home roofing contractor” becomes “home roofing contractor in Howard City Michigan. The more detail you put in your search, the better your results if finding what you need.
So that is what I am doing with each major keyword and location in my market area. NOTE: Been told by SEO programmers that Google frowns on using the same content on multiple pages with minor changes. Going back to our ‘home roofing contractor’ we would not place the same info on: ‘home roofing contractor big rapids’ – ‘home roofing contractor reed city’ and ‘home roofing contractor cadillac’ for example. The Google beast loves content, new and fresh content. This is where your time will be spent. Hours and hours working your Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords. Plus do not forget you still need to be blogging as well. Feed the BEAST.
As we journey through the wonderful world of SEO remember there are numerous ways to work our site organically. Please do not get discouraged. This is a marathon. A never-ending marathon. This 30 day challenge of building Landing Pages by Location Based Keywords is only one technique we decided on based on our 90 day analytic report. When will I know if this is a good use of time… 30 – 90 days from now.
My goal is to help you. You first have to begin with a website that has a great foundation. Then and only then can we move forward. This journey is one I am happy to share with you. Learn from my success and failures. Need help on your site? Contact me at 231-937-5420. We can design and build your site, your foundation and then help you along the path. Thank you!
