Brand image and reputation must be perpetually promoted to remain in the public eye and in turn to generate sales. Social media platforms have transformed the manner in which content is viewed and generated, holding an audience with a limited attention span and one that scans through so much media. Brands have to focus on creating artful digital content in order to captivate their target market. Digital video content has a very captivating way of conveying information, but the content is just part of the story. Today’s audience is interested only in adaptable and crisp videos so here are some basic tips to help your organization make effective web video content.

Tips for Creating Engaging Video Content

Nurture that Creativity

Creative moments come from everywhere, keep yourself open and available to new ways to shoot a scene. Listen to suggestions from the people you work with as they might just have got a sense of what your story could use. Don’t be afraid to explore your own creative style because at the end of the day, that’s what makes your brand stand out from the hoard of content out there.

Remember to shoot more footage than you need, this may seem frustrating to follow all the time but goes a long way when you’re at the editing table and find a shot that hadn’t been planned but could definitely use.

Step by Step

Pace yourself while shooting a scene as this gives you the mental space and time to make decisions. Making a video can be very stressful as a million things have to work together but keeping yourself calm and taking your time to do things can make that process so much easier.

Gear

Always invest in equipment that your company can use in the long run because that’s some expensive stuff! Cameras are not your priority investments as they are always changing, instead, get yourself some good lights. They help you enhance almost any scene by creating depth and don’t even cost as much as cameras.

Lenses and filters are also a great investment as they are interchangeable as they can be used on different camera bodies.

Lights and Shadows

Lighting is the most significant thing in video production as it is essentially what helps create the mood and feel of the scene. Videos being primarily a visual medium makes what your audience can or cannot see very crucial and thus one should understand how to bring the correct exposure to the scenes.

Either play around with the big 3 of the camera settings; Aperture, ISO and shutter speed or just get some of those lights we talked about earlier. Discerning how and where to focus with the camera is also a big component of exposure as this helps sighting the important points of the frame as well as where the audience’s attention should divert to.

There’s always the option of using the natural light available as that is the most cost-effective as well as quite useful in many situations. Keep in mind to observe and analyze how the sunlight transforms at different points during the day and how it could influence the shot.

That Tasteful Cut

Editing is much more than being able to put different shots together and conveying a story, it’s about rhythm and flow and that could be achieved through various methods but most of all it’s about knowing what to keep and what to lose.

Fundamentally, to know where to cut you need to acquire a sense of what you have to work with. This can only be done if you go through your footage and familiarize yourself with the content and your company’s brand image.

Once you get a clear idea of your resources you need to start organizing the media. Clutter is an adversary to all editors if you’re always searching for what you need you will start to lose focus and eventually your mind!

While editing you want to keep it simple on some aspects, maintain the continuity at all times. Lose your continuity and get ready to lose your audience’s undivided attention as well. It’s fun to put on different filters and color grade your footage to make it more alluring but be mindful not to overdo it because that would just take the focus away from the content.

Here’s a rule that could save your life, always and perpetually back up your footage! Mysterious things happen all the time and sometimes that backed up footage on your hard drive comes so handy.

Music to My Ears

If the eyes take the lead in apprehending a video, the ears follow close behind. Sound is absolutely cardinal in a video as it helps your audience perceive the mood and emotion of the project and thereby the essence of your brand. Sound in way of background music or even just the volume or texture of a dialogue helps navigate the film from scene to scene and even emphasizes the emotions a scene holds.

Editing oftentimes goes along with the music used in the video as both share the rhythm that grabs the viewer’s attention. Although sound is an intrinsic factor in films, often silence speaks grand volumes in the right context.

Film and media have broken margins with the scale of technology that is made available in these times and one can gain insight and valuable knowledge through various online sources, it is just a matter of legitimacy and depth of the content. We should be able to differentiate between what is worthy of our consideration and filter out the rest.

Finally, nobody has made a good film in a day and that just means that it is alright if you’re not doing every little thing right straightaway. It is a matter of practice and passion and both require consistency. These tips are just a way to help you get to your goal a little faster and a lot more effectively.

Here are 3 simple tips to keep in mind when live streaming your event brought to you by Dubai’s best live streaming company Webmedia.

3 Simple Tips for Live Streaming

1) Plan Plan Plan!

Who are you live streaming to? It is so important to have your audience defined because you need to direct your strategy to market your event accordingly.

Ask yourselves questions like on which platforms they are present. Which times they are most active? is it going to be a local audience of potential clients, your employees, or a larger international audience? If so you have to consider time zones, holidays, etc.

After picking up the right platforms to stream to, event date, timings…etc. You will need to build up awareness by posting or sending out reminders starting at least a week before the live-stream event and most importantly, the day before.

At the end of the day, there is no point in live streaming an event when you have no audience to watch.

2) Quality is Key!

Quality is key because if you deliver online content with poor video quality, 62 percent of the viewers are likely to have a negative image of the brand. Whether it is a single-camera production or turnkey on-site multi-camera production, it is always necessary to have high-quality video and audio as a top priority.

Branded live stream content is also an added value to your brand image. Keeping all of your set graphics such as the logo, session name, speaker’s names…etc. will help people understand exactly what life is about even if they join midway. Always provide your graphics a couple of days prior to the event and prepare a running order for the graphics operator to ensure you have a smooth and professional broadcast with no last-minute surprises.

3) Keep the Heat Up!

It is key to keep your online as well as the in-person audience engaged. If there are different segments or halls to your live stream, make sure you articulate the transition appropriately to keep your audience interested, and if this is successful they might even want to attend the event in person next time. Make sure you keep them in the live stream! If content gets repetitive, monotonous, and boring people are likely to leave so have an interactive Q&A session with people who are in person and engage your online viewers through email, social media, etc. It is also a good idea to involve sponsors and partners for the event to ensure a wider demographic and expand your audience base. It is a win-win situation because they help finance you, promote themselves, and make you more accessible to a larger demographic.

New CineAlta Full-Frame

Venice is Sony’s first dedicated full-frame digital motion picture camera system. The VENICE features a user-interchangeable sensor that is removed with only four screws, anamorphic capabilities, an eight-stage ND filter, and a new color management system.

The camera combines a newly developed 36x24mm full-frame sensor where user-selectable areas of the sensor can be used. Venice can capture images up to a maximum resolution of 6048 x 4032 in full-frame, you can use the full 6048-pixel width of the sensor for widescreen spherical 2.39:1 or Large Format Scope. By switching imager modes, VENICE can natively support Super35 24.9×18.7mm, 4096 x 3024 resolution (equivalent to 4-perforation motion picture film) and Super35 24.9×14.0mm 4096 x 2160 resolution (equivalent to 3-perforation motion picture film). Future firmware upgrades are planned to allow the camera to shoot in 36mm wide 6K resolution.

Dynamic Range

Sony claims that the new VENICE also has more than 15 stops of latitude to handle challenging lighting situations from low light to harsh sunlight. Unlike the Sony F65, the VENICE doesn’t have a mechanical shutter, but Sony claim that new fast image scan technology minimizes the so-called “Jello” effect.

The Sony VENICE CineAlta digital motion picture camera system is scheduled to be available in February 2018 for a retail price of $41,000US (body only). We will test when it will be available in Dubai.

Canon CN-E 18-80mm T4.4L EF Features

• Covers Super 35 & APS-C Sensors
• Native EF Mount
• T4.4 Constant Maximum Aperture
• 9-Blade Iris for pleasing bokeh
• Parfocal with Minimized Focus Breathing
• Compatible with Servo Lens Controllers
• Optional Control Grip
• 77mm filter thread
• Image Stabilization & Auto Focus Support
• 180° Rotation for Focus
• Lightweight at only 2.65 lb

We can’t wait to receive this lens in Dubai and tested, the good thing about the lens is it can be used with cameras like the Canon C100, C300 and with Sony FS7 with an EF to E mount converter.
The only downside is that the lens will exist only in EF mount and no PL, so it’s mostly intended for the low end cinema production, nontheless this is a very versatile lens for Canon cinema shooters even if the T rating on this lens is not so good (T 4.4) but with latest sensors technologies on the new cinema cameras it is not a big problem.

Dubai – UAE

YouTube, the ultimate litmus test for brands turns out to be a bane for the millionaires.
What is it in the YouTube kid stars that the millionaires owning millions of dollars cannot afford? Not having the essential knowledge in producing a video will definitely not give you the required hits, likes, or comments.

As said by YouTube Marketing Expert Brendon Gahan during a conference, ‘On YouTube you can’t buy your way to success.’ He stated that it only required four simple steps to change the way people look at the videos.

YouTube is a tricky platform, firstly YouTubers need to follow the need-of-the-hour online trending practices. Like for instance, placing notes at the end of the video asking viewers to subscribe as well as the YouTuber should make sure that he is emphasizing on it verbally too while concluding the video, the existence of strong video titles, etc.
Second, make sure there are no jargons that complicate your video descriptions leaving the viewer confused and making him shift to another channel to watch a video.
Even one like on a video can make a huge difference.
Thirdly, being a simple YouTuber and producing videos that will interest the public who belong to different levels but have a certain important thing in common.

Making videos on topics that will interest the viewers will automatically lead to a vast increase in views as well as likes. Lastly, increasing efforts and working on flaws with each video will enhance the videos, hence making them closer to perfection with the flow. Hence the quote ‘Money can’t buy happiness’, sits just perfectly for the millionaires who aren’t getting what they want in spite of having so much money in hand.

Everyone has a different way of doing things. A solution for one event may differ from a solution for another event. There are literally hundreds of ways of doing it.
The things to keep in mind are cost, quality and possibility of failure.

 2. Use a video switcher

To get an interesting and dynamic shown, the best practice is to use multiple cameras. there are tones of switcher options available, the best switcher for your event would be the one in your budget. More importantly the one you are comfortable using.

3. Get the video out.

The success for a live event is based on a good bandwidth and many rehearsals.
Always test the bandwidth, but testing it before the audience has come may be misleading if the audience will be sharing the bandwidth.

4. Pre-event testing is not optional.

There’s something every expert on production will agree on is  testing. Test, test and keep testing. while testing before hand can help you discover problems, testing onsite can help tremendously, and is your first priority once your gear is set up.

5. Start the webcast early.

Always start the webcast early, the time prior to the event isn’t just to set up your gear and to test. starting your webcast earlier than it actually starts. You could go live with a countdown or with some music or a shot of the venue.

6. Have a plan B

Always have a backup plan, incase your fails. the back up planning you do the less chances of failure and your recovery will be faster.
Don’t over look anything. More importantly power, backup everything starting with power. Because if your primary power fails, you’ll end up having nothing to work with.
