One of the reasons is for all new employees to hear the same unified messages regarding company policies and expectations. Other rea-sons include limiting liability issues by having a video in place and verifying it was shown; to meet prime contractor requirements; and to greatly reduce the time needed for company training people to conduct individual or small group orientations.

6. Why produce videos for new hires?

If we are shooting on your company’s job site you should supply the trained personnel, uniforms, safety garb, necessary equipment, tech-nical advisement, and prepare the shooting environment so it meets your industry’s requirements.

5. For location shoots, what should we supply?

There are pro’s and con’s of shooting in a studio versus shooting on site. We shoot in a studio to control lighting and sound. It’s that simple. And if we shoot in our studio, everything can be set up in advance. Location shooting often disrupts the normal flow of business. However, there are many scenarios in which you will want your executive to appear if the ambience and “place” is important to the video.

4. If we want to shoot a message from one of our executives should we shoot it in our office or come to your studio?

Generally it is. Professionals in the industry choose cuts of music to enhance and support the visuals on screen. Music used under a nar-ration is carefully selected so it does not interfere with the spoken word.

3. Is a music bed needed?

Proper lighting and good audio is the basis for a technically well-produced video. When these elements are handled correctly the viewer is able to focus on the con-tent of the video.

2. Why is lighting and audio so important in a video?

It depends on the sophistication of the project. Videos can be relatively inexpensive but can also be a fairly costly investment. Generally, videos tend to range from $1,000 to $2,000 per minute but that figure can vary greatly depending on the requirements. Videos with research-based script writing, professional talent, complicated shooting, 3D effects and animation naturally cost more than a video with one person speaking on camera. Whatever your needs or budget, The Editing Company will go the extra mile to deliver a top quality product.
