With more and more content going online and in social media, there's no more engaging medium for connecting with your audience than video. With the growing needs of video content production for web and social media, the PUREi video production team understands the unique requirements, both from a budgetary and creative standpoint, for producing content specifically catered to this medium. We understand social. It's a different medium that requires a different approach. Whatever your overall web and social media marketing goals may be - extending your brand presence, creating awareness and buzz, building an online community, engaging with your prospects or target market, interacting and building relationships with existing customers - we can get you there with videos that stand out. Some of the approaches we utilize include reality style video content, micro-content, webisodes, YouTube specific content, news-style shows, educational style videos, product demo videos, promotional videos and web demos.

Training Video Production

Imagine taking your best training presentation, making it even better, and guaranteeing its effectiveness every time. We produce professionally crafted training videos or instructional videos that incorporates a live instructor with dynamic motion graphics, 3D models and animation, animated charts and graphs, and video clips that clearly demonstrate a particular topic or concept. A training video is a great way to supplement or even completely replace printed training materials or manuals, or to supplement online training courework. It's a highly effective medium to achieve the task of training your target audience and can significantly contribute to a reduced demand for technical support, greater customer satisfaction and product acceptance.

Depending on your particular needs, we can create a training video for you as well as an entire training program. Training videos can be incorporated into a web based learning management solution that combines video segments with online testing and evaluation at each step. No matter how simple or complex your training needs may be, we can provide a solution that is both effective and cost effective.

Trade Show Videos

Live video elements or video presentations are great ways to draw crowds and promote your products and brand at your next trade show or event. At trade shows, environmental motion graphics are a great way to accent your booth and attract attention to your booth. You can also use video in the form of self-playing kiosks or stations at your booth to serve a variety or purposes such as to educate, inform, promote or sell. Another powerful and effective approach is a live video presentation with a presenter. This tactic combines the use of a professional human presenter with a video wall or large screen presentation timed to the live presenter to deliver a powerful, compelling and attention grabbing message. Typically, this approach requires a suitable seating or stage area set up in your booth to accommodate both the presenter and presentation as well as seating or standing room for people to view the presentation.

Whatever the tactic and approach may be, we can help you with either just the video production portion or assist you in your entire booth layout and trade show marketing strategy for your next show or event. Give us a call to discuss your next show in more detail, and we can show you examples of how we've integrated video into trade show booths. If you're interested, we can also show you examples of complete trade show marketing strategies we've put together for clients and the results we've achieved.

The videos we create can take on a traditional serious tone or they can take a light-hearted and entertaining style to education depending on the age of the audience, the curriculum and the approach.

We have the creative and technical capability to incorporate any type of element into educational videos while at the same time creating a format that is visually appealing as well and highly effective at educating students on the particular subject.
