How to make GREAT Slide Shows
and Videos
Picture this:
You are a video hobbyist, so they've just given you the
assignment: Make a "show" or a "PowerPoint" that honors the
retiring VP of your department. Great. Its just your
reputation that's on the line-- in front of
hundreds.
Now what?
Or
your family wants
to honor 90-year old Aunt Winnie, and you've been
volunteered to make a
video slideshow-- you've collected the images,
the slides, the print, the video . . . but nothing much is
happening. Sure you can slap some pictures together-- but
she, and your family, want and deserve more.
Now what?
When you hit these
roadblocks, the answer is usually not found in the
camcorder or software or even the video or images: It is
found in the
BIGGER picture:
How Do I Tell This Story?
Digital storytelling is not just a technical
endeavor. Sure, you need a good camera, computer, scanner,
and editing software.
But it's much more than that.
It involves the same kind of
thinking employed by major motion
picture writers and directors.
Emotion, Logic,
Conflict, Resolution, Love, Hate, Challenge, Achievement.
All with a beginning, middle, and end.
It's what we call
the
"front end," or
creative side, of the business of
digital communications. It's also the part that most video
enthusiasts ignore. They know the right cameras, editing
packages, computers, lights, microphones . . . but they
don't know the fine art of really
MOVING an audience. Of creating a narrative and
telling the story.
I
can tell you from experience . . . when you know
how to tell
the story, the rest is easy. The technical parts. The
marketing parts. The new business parts.
Whether you're in video for love or money,
storytelling is what separates you from the pack, and
guarantees applause, and profit.
Applause
Audiences love and
need peaks and valleys, good times and bad times, and
ultimately, triumph. 99% of the people producing video
(even many pros) don't know how to achieve this.
But applause is the proof of the pudding.
Profit
This isn't
1995.
Thanks to
miniaturization and cheaper, more powerful computers and DV
/ HDV gear, video operators or companies today can run
high-efficiency, low-overhead enterprises that can mean
that every nearly
every dollar you charge can go into your pocket.
This too is often
ignored by the big boys (the dinosaurs).
Profit is the proof of the business
premise.
How do You Learn to Make Great Shows
and Make Money Doing it?
That's where
we
come in. For
thirty-five years, I have been producing
cutting-edge multimedia and video communications with the
emphasis on story.
Company
Histories.
Family
Histories & Celebrations.
Special Events.
Fund Raisers.
Rousing Meeting Openers.
Performance Motivators.
Retirement Tributes.
Documentaries.

Good stuff? Thanks. I won't
deny these had decent budgets, but the fact is that more
than a few were done on a shoestring, or even for free for
the family.
What all of them achieved was
applause, appreciation, warmth, love,
commitment.
How does he do
it? I
kept my competitors guessing for years.
And it's a question I wouldn't answer--for competitive
reasons--until
now.
The Secrets of the Man Behind the
Curtain
As
a professional producer, this has been my best year ever.
The challenges were great, the deadlines tight, the
expectation high. We achieved, exceeded, and profited. And,
as has been the case for so many projects in the past, the
crews working with me got an education. For me, it was a
pinnacle I may never be able to surpass. Which got me to
thinking:
Now What?
I decided I wanted to share my experience, luck, methods,
and creative instincts with others-- to create a legacy, so
to speak... so that I could share--
How to structure a story. How to shoot for that story. How
to create a soundtrack that thrills. How to pace and edit a
story. Even how to show it to large and small
crowds.
And
that's when I realized that the biggest secret was the most
important one, and one I knew well:
How do You Tell a Video Story?
Where
video producers get stumped is in the idea stage
. . . the structure
stage. What is the hook? What is the
story? Where
does it start? How do I end it?
I know the answers.
And whether you are producing family tributes or corporate
histories, I want to begin to share my knowledge with you.
If you learn and adopt these methods, you will be
earning
more applause, more money, and more cred
than you ever
thought possible.
I guarantee it.
Because
I know these methods work.
VideoStory and Slideshow Secrets-- All in One
Place!
The foundation for these secrets is my first book, being
offered now for the first time,
"Tribute Videos for Fun and Money."
Doesn't sound very intimidating, does it?
But behind this
friendly book jacket is a
tsunami of information, crisply presented, richly
illustrated, deeply annotated.
Click HERE for the Table of
Contents.
It's all there, from how to shape a show, to
how to make audiences cry. How to distribute your videos,
even how to start a company.
It's the first in a series, but if you were to get no other
product from me, I would advise getting this one, because
this is the one where I bare my creative soul.
Does it work?
- Ask the companies who had us produce anniversary tributes, like Underwriters Laboratories, Mercury Marine, and many others.
- Ask the companies that had us produce tributes to their retiring leaders.
- Ask the church that exceeded its substantial fundraising goals.
- Ask the theater company we helped put on the map.
- Ask the special needs school that wanted to recruit new students.
- Ask my family . . . (and these are the most cherished memories) . . .
- who sat down and cried for tributes to relatives for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, and memorials.
This book will help
you achieve
all of these things.
“You were a hit!
You charmed us with your wit and enlightened us with your
wisdom. …
