We had such a good year we hated to see it go, but the starting signs of 2017 look to be even better. We have been very pleased by the amount of enquiries we have received in the first half of January, showing that people have got straight back into the swing of things. It’s very exciting stuff!
The start of 2017 certainly saw us quick off the mark, sending quotes and proposals out. Our second day even saw us recording a voiceover for a Health and Safety themed Explainer Video. Our client was very happy with the outcome and we have now been commissioned to produce translated versions in German, French, Italian and Spanish. Similarly a product demonstration video we filmed (which saw our studio turned into a lab!) is now in its finishing stages and the client would like versions in German, Spanish, Portuguese and Mandarin.
One of our pitches that we are hoping is successful is the construction of an e-learning course using a program called Articulate. For those that don’t know what that is, it is a platform used to create online (and offline) courses, in which the results can be tracked. They are great for Health and Safety training, quizzes and student evaluations, among many other uses. We love this style of work because it is always interesting to see how mixed media projects can come together.
Including the ones previously mentioned, we’ve truly had an array of different projects in during the first few days of 2017, including a blast-from-the-past which saw us dusting off some old machines in order to convert U-matic, Beta SP, Digibeta, DVCAM and VHS tapes to DVD.
Other projects in the pipeline include a series of maternity videos for the NHS, our most complex Illustrated Push Video yet, a couple of teaser videos for a medical event and much more.
Finally we are waiting on dates for a shoot in a very hot, overseas location. This cannot come soon enough, as we need a good thawing out!
It’s only January and 2017 has all the makings of a great year.
