You know that, as a business owner, you need to create relationships in order to grow your business and that sometimes it’s hard to find the money to do everything that you want to do. I’ve found that video is one of the best relationship building tools for businesses, next to face to face meetings. The problem for alot of businesses, though, is that video can be very expensive and sometimes it can be hard to know what you should spend your marketing dollars on. Some business owners have heard the benefits of using video to promote their business online, but are stumped on where to start. Orange County video production company, Miller Farm Media, has a new solution to help your advertising dollar go further. We are now offering a video workshop for businesses. Learn how to create a video to promote your business. You will need a camera to get started and the best camera to use is the camera that you own.
For this specific class, we are going to use [amazon_link id="B002HOPUPC" target="_blank" ]the Kodak Zi8 Pocket Video Camera (Black)[/amazon_link] or the [amazon_link id="B003VTZE4Y" target="_blank" ]Kodak PlayTouch Video Camera (Black)[/amazon_link] these are not the best cameras out there, but for around $100 it creates a great picture. More important than good video is good audio and for this we recommend [amazon_link id="B002HJ9PTO" target="_blank" ] the Audio Technica ATR-3350 Lavalier Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone[/amazon_link] You will also need to have a Windows laptop. Your laptop must be running Windows Vista or better. Attendees will learn how to plan their video shoot, record it, edit it, and how to upload it to YouTube. Each attendee will leave the workshop with a completed business video. Contact us for the date of our next work shop. For more details or to enroll visit http://millerfarmmedia.eventbrite.com/
