Video Marketing For Your Business Or Brand

Producing Quality Profile Pictures
Profile pictures, Icons, Avis, no matter what you call them they are very important to the first impression of your brand. This is normally what people remember you by whether it be a business logo or picture of yourself. It is important that you have a high-quality image to put a face with your business, brand or service. For those with a business or entity separate from yourself, the business logo will suffice. Just be sure that the image is clean simple and easy to identif


Editing Someone Else's Video Footage
In the world of video we often aren’t able to be present for every shoot. At first it wasn’t easy for me because I was editing all of my own footage. If not I was at least present when the footage was recorded. Then I came across some freelance projects to edit. It was confusing at first but I got it together. The first thing I did was gathered all the information I could about how the project is supposed to turn out. I got all of the pre-production information, any storyboar


Photographing Large Groups
Families these days are not as big as they used to be. A big family today is considered a dad mom and of three to four kids. So getting a good family photo I’m pretty sure is not as hard as it once was. When photographing large groups, there are a number of things that have to be taken into consideration. Some of these things are the amount of people, their eye direction, posture, hand placement and more. I recently photographed a family of ten: two adults and eight kids. The

Best DSLR Lens For The Best Price
In my first blog I talked about where to find equipment in the metro Detroit area. This time around I’m going to talk about a high quality lens for a low price. A 50mm prime lens for Canon or Nikon is a great starter lens that gives you a lot of versatility. This lens works well for photography or videography. The best thing about the 50mm prime is the ability to capture at f1.8. You won’t find a lens with that much depth of field at this price. When shooting photography you

It takes a real commitment because you may not see a quick turn around for some of the purchases you make. There aren’t many stores around the Detroit area but there are some. ProCam in Livonia is a good place to go to get equipment and ask questions about what to purchase. There is a studio for rent and there are many workshops that you
