Excellent work assembling these videos, although I guess I should be thanking Steve, Laura, Philip, Whilt, Stephanie, Barry, Jerry, Peney, Jerome, Mike, and of course Mike's daughter, Kelly!

I think there is great value in repurposing this style of video for clients to give them an office tour and look behind the scenes of video production. Far too often I find clients have no idea how videos are made, including the process, the specialized equipment required, and especially the skill.

Hi Shawn,

These clips were part of a feature I did, in this month's EventDV, that profiled these talented videographers in an article called "Cash Cows in a Changing Economy.

The magazine hits the stands September 1 and the web version should be up this weekend.

Shawn, I enjoyed your review of WEVA that was posted, this week. Good work!

Thanks

Hal

Thanks Hal - I look forward to reading your feature. Sorry you had to take a "pass" on Expo this year. We'll have to make up for it next time around.

I think my WEVA piece is slated for the October edition.

Haha! Loved it! Wife and I watched it together. She thinks you are a big dork though. Unsure

It was nice to see your home.

But where were you hiding all of the immigrant workers who do your bidding while you spend all your time on the 47 boards you are a member of?

Your wife just loves dorks, she married the biggest dork in the world. Smile

Glad you liked my home, I like it too - it's paid off Cool

They were out in the fields, I'm training them to edit. Tongue

47 boards!! Look in the mirror, Dude, that would be you. Shocked

Leave me alone I have to edit 24 weddings. Unsure

Hi Anthony,

The full feature, with added text, profiles four additional companies with more great ideas. This should be up on EventDV.net by Monday and in the mail by the end of next week.

Thanks

Thank you Mr. Williams, it was a long climb up, but could be a fast fall down. Wink

I wished Laura & I could have spend more time with you at WEVA. I think you were in re-hab or something, never saw much of you. Wished I hadn't missed the GPVA party, I had to work early the next day. Unsure

Hi Dave,

As of today I have gotten requests from another 8 videographers to interview them and have them add video clips of their companies. This is something that EventDV may expand upon, in the future.

Thanks

Thank you Arber, a correction - it's not a FTP file transfer system, that requires a much bigger dog. It's simply a Flash drive transport system. They are available at your local dog shelters for a low price, simple training is needed. Our poodle, trained with this system is available for sale. We are asking $800 - shipping included. We have a back-up dog and I hate having too much equipment laying around. Give us a call with any questions about building your business. Smile

Thanks again Arber.

Re: [Laura Moses] You Need To See This Video !!! [In reply to]	Can't Post

Hi Laura,

Thanks for adding the link to the Cash Cow article.

Quite a few videographers have asked me about your FTP File Transfer Program and what breed of dogs work best when using that system. Maybe your next column can address that formula.

Thanks

Hal
