Serving the Big Rapids Area with Video Production

by | May 22, 2014 | blog

Since 1984 when Duane Weed first started in business he has been serving the Big Rapids area with video production services.  Fast forward to 2014 – thirty years later… he is still at it.

According to Owner/Producer/Director Duane Weed, “I laugh to think that the first number one compatible media was VHS videotape.  It would play in every machine.  Today, Quicktime and Windows Media Video for the most part do not like each other”, Duane continues.  “Players like VLC play them both.  I laugh when I think bout with all this technology, VHS tape had its advantages.”

The road to technology has changed.  The need however to tell a businesses story, capture those memories from 8mm film or videotape to DVD is still here.   The number of times the DW Video team has been across the Mackinaw Bridge on film and videotape…. they lost count.

Luke Wyckoff from Social Media Energy, Denver CO, discusses how important video is for business.

Video Story – Michigan Video Production

Telling a video story is what Producer-Director Duane Weed is all about – your story.

Telling your video story does not have to be complicated.  In this example I took an audio recording and pick certain segments to tell that story.  For video used the GoPro time lapse function – then the edit using Sony Vegas.   After picking out the audio segments enhanced the video story with title graphics to bring home the message – this is not easy.  It took an hour or two to find just the right segments to use.  It is a soft sell approach, not in your face advertising.  Connecting with an emotion, a thought, a message.  The video story is that – a story…. your story.  For years we have preached that everyone has a story and we are telling it.  Yes that is true – it is our job.  However, it is also our passion… our purpose in life.

A video story has a message that inspires.  The story is what moves people into a call to action.  Is that call to action to call you?  Is it to visit a web page set up for the viewer?  Is it to make them pause and think.  Video does all that – DW Video does all that.  Contact Duane today to discuss your story.

Everyone has a story to tell – that story can be told in a varitey of ways.  What we do at DW Video is work with you to meet your goals, focus on your audience and promote the benefits you and your business offers.
