Portraits

                  

When we do company-wide portraits, to create a uniform set of photos of everyone, they can be used in all online and offline media. We take the portraits on one more days, depending on availability of your people, but we record the lighting and background setup so the subsequent photos match the ones already taken. We can bring our equipment to your office in order to photograph as many people as possible at once. We can also duplicate the setup at our office if some people up photos need to be taken.

We immediately upload the photos the our online photo system, where you can view and access your portfolio of photographs. You have the ability to download the images in digital form at various sizes depending on what they will be used for. You can also order prints (with the ability to easily crop them to various sizes) right from the site with the printed photographs being delivered directly to you. If we are doing other marketing work for your company, we can access the photos for use in any of your online or offline media we create.

Types of Photo Shoots

Sports Photography
If your company is involved in sporting event, or sporting goods, capturing the photographs of the action (and writing the story for publication) can greatly enhance your visual image.

Stock Photo   Shoot 

We take a variety of photos around your company to create a set of images that can be used in a variety of marketing materials, web site, and social media campaigns.  Instead of going to a stock agency for ‘generic’ photos, we take photos of your products, people, building, etc., to create a stockpile of images that are unique to your company.  We strive to create a uniform ‘style’ that conveys your companies competitive advantage in the marketplace.  As ongoing marketing activities and campaigns are enacted, the photographs are available in your database for use.

Service Shoots
Describing a service that your company provides takes a bit more planning.  Usually it requires telling the story with a series of photographs that show the process and the positive outcomes of the service.

Event Photo Shoot
Creating some photographs (and video clips) of the events your company holds, or are involved in, creates excellent content for adding to your website and for making social and business media posts.

Marketing Campaign Shoot
Often, photographs are needed to be included in a specific online or offline marketing campaign.   These types of photographs are highly dependent on the goals of the campaign.  We can create the creative imagery to support the marketing campaigns goals for the online and/or offline medium the campaign will be based.  These photos may be highly produced or quickly shot depending on the needs.

Video Marketing Overview

Video & Photography have fueled the growth of  ‘New Media’.  With faster Internet connections, and digital video and photo cameras everywhere, the use of video and photography on the web has exploded. Now you can use the story telling power of video quickly, much less expensively, and more often to perform actual ‘selling’ on the web.

It is now possible to use video to accomplish steps in your selling process.

Social & Business media, blogs, and web sites, with their easy embedding capabilities, allow photos and videos to be shown to thousands of people on whatever device they are using.

At Broad Reach New Media we create several kinds of videos with different levels of filming and editing. Each type of video has it’s place depending on your needs, goals, and what information you need to convey to sell your product or service.  Video clips are often used today, instead of long videos, because of how easily they can be inserted onto web sites and online social media and business media sites.

  • Series of quick smaller videos with minimal editing that look great, communicate vast amounts of information quickly, and can be used in a variety of ways.
  • Videos & photos of your events, speaking engagements, etc., that can be used to show your involvement in your industry and improve your industry knowledge reputation.
  • Set up video shooting programs for your video blog
  • Informational and training videos that are more of a documentary style
  • Editing of your existing video into new works and media formats

We often look to shoot video in small segments, e.g., each speaker at an event, or a small clip for each product or service, so they can easily be ‘posted’ to web sites, or social media sites.

We have lots of examples we can show you. Call us and we can quickly discuss what your needs are, and then show you real life applications of video that can enhance your company image, communicate more information, and bring social media alive.
