video production

Major breakfast cereal manufacturer chooses VideoActive.
A world leading breakfast cereal manufacturer has chosen video producers VideoActive for their new Contractor Induction DVD, to be used interactively with a written test of understanding to be applied to every contractor before they are allowed on site.

Scene from a recent production in which we use a video producer's "trick" placing these iconic figures on the factory floor using green screen.

It will be produced in the style of a modern News Cast, with an on-screen presenter, extensive use of split screens and multiple images, and lots of visual interest, with spoken messages reinforced by text on-screen. A crawling sub title area will be reserved for second and third language translations if required.

VideoActive takes to the air.

Three recent video productions have been enhanced by the use of aerial views, either as still photography or as video footage. The technique was first used in our inland waterway documentary series. However we have also used aerial views in corporate productions - very impressive for large factory complexes. The video producer used a Cessna 172 in recent productions.

The resource is built around video elements. Some of these video productions are programme-length in-depth documentaries looking at real case studies, while others are acted out scenarios. Altogether, 15 actors and over 60 other people were involved in the video production.
Watching Paint Dry.
When a new client asked us to make a dvd which involved watching paint dry, we thought it was a wind-up! However, one of the UK's leading painting contractors specialises in the application of high performance paint systems. Each of these has been developed for a specific purpose. Some resist grafitti, others actively destroy odours using a light activated catalyst, while others have a self-cleaning action.

New DVD promotes holidays on the French Waterways.

When a leading provider of continental cruising holidays wanted a video producer for a promotional dvd, they chose VideoActive.
