When a potential customer is faced with the decision to read a lengthy PDF with facts and statistics, or watch an engaging video that’s full of energy and excitement, which do you think he will choose? If you understand today’s consumer, then you’ll know that a concise, targeted video can be very effective. Decisions to buy your product or use your service happen much more quickly when the viewer sees how your product can be beneficial, or how your service can make life easier.

A well-produced video can be very convincing when telling your story. And today, videos can be played anywhere—from DVDs to tradeshows to websites. These highly-focused, marketing productions are quickly becoming a favorite medium among companies, big and small.

Creating a compelling, visual story that is different yet stimulating can be a challenge. We’ve all seen the videos that were painfully dull with poor production quality or just missed the message altogether. But, we’ve also seen a few that we remember like yesterday—timeless clips that made us laugh or cry, or both. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then moving pictures can be worth far more.

In the next few blog posts, I will be sharing secrets to producing a compelling marketing, tradeshow and corporate video.

Here’s the 60-second spot:

To make an advert for Doritos is a big deal. The tortilla chips have been produced since 1964 and are sold in many countries. At times it has been a best selling snack, beating everything from cookies, cakes and candies. It’s not really that surprising as they are a snack that can be enjoyed at all times, when watching TV with friends, playing games at http://www.casino.com or at a BBQ. So how could we resist the chance to make a commercial for such a popular snack, that would be aired as the legendary Super Bowl commercial and the chance to win $1 million?

This year, we jumped in and created our own 30 second spot for the contest. Here’s our entry into the Crash the Superbowl contest called “Where’s your Happy Place?”

The short film was selected as a semi-finalist at The Doorpost. You can watch it at the Doorpost. Join us on our Long Journey Home Facebook Group!
