VIDEO ADVERTISEMENTS
Short video advertisements, also known as product/service trailers, are promotional videos (commercials!), usually not more then one minute long, featuring videos, graphics, and music. They are intended to catch the immediate attention of potential customers, engage their emotions, and compel them to buy your product or service. Video advertising is far more effective than text or even graphic stand-alone ads!
DESCRIPTION OF VIDEO AD SERVICES
COMPANY DIRECTED
We have found that allowing us to choose the videos and photos for your video ad is a fast process, and the business or individual who ordered the video is usually thrilled with the results. You will provide the text for each frame of the video. Company-directed videos provide the fastest turn-around. You’ll have one opportunity to request changes to text and graphics. Additional change requests are $25 per round of changes. Once a video is finalized and approved, it can’t be changed. If you want a new video in the future, one will need to be ordered. If you provide a graphic of your product or service for us to include (for example, a photo of your product or of you, it will need to be 300 dpi.
CUSTOMER DIRECTED
You will provide photos or video(s). We are happy to incorporate stock photos and stock videos along with ones you provide! Photos and videos must be 300 dpi and square. Square video ads are more viewer-friendly, and work across all platforms, while landscape videos do not, particularly on Instagram.
We are flexible, of course, but videos should not be longer than one minute. In the fast-paced world of the Internet, viewers get frustrated if they have to wait too long for information.
Whichever service you choose, you’ll be able to upload it on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other websites and social media platforms. In addition, you can, of course, post it to your own website, and give other people permission to post it as well.
