Underwater Videographer Podcasts

admin — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 14:48:56 +0000

The next best thing to diving is a diving video!

These days camcorders are affordable, easy to use and high quality. Anyone can make their own movies to astound non-diving friends and family, or just for your own enjoyment. Video is convenient. With video you don’t need to process the film, you can view your results straight after the dive and, if you don’t like your results, you can record over them! Video is ideally suited to capturing the intricacy of marine life behavior, and the awe of the diver’s environment.

These are just a few reasons why more and more divers are choosing video (over stills cameras) to share their dives with non divers. A good video is life without the boring bits. A good underwater video is the perfect dive. Creating the perfect video is a challenge requiring more skill and planning than a deep wreck dive- learn how to get past these challenges with The DV Show’s newest podcast – Underwater Videographer!

Gail asks: Some people in the image and design community make money selling there work as stock work. Tons of designers I know look for royalty-free stock images, and it is a great way for an artistic talent to make extra money.

How can a videographer do this? Are there sites out there that offer just video footage to purchase to and sell from?

Answer: Absolutely! Here’s our master list of websites that buy your video footage along with a podcast interview with alwayshd.com’s COO Carleton Wilkins who gives some insight and tips on how to break into the biz.

How to Produce Money Making Special Interest Videos

admin — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 04:01:45 +0000

As a videographer, you can expect to be approached by people with great ideas for a video. They are certain that Blockbuster will want to stock it and that their local PBS affiliates will want to air it. The video might take the form of a documentary, a travel video, or a how-to video. In a few cases, these folks have the capital to finance the venture, and they are ready to pay your fee for production and editing. But most of the time, these budding entrepreneurs want you to invest your time and your equipment purely on spec, with only the hope of sharing future profits.

What these people are suggesting isn’t necessarily as far-fetched as it sounds. With the right topic, a well-targeted audience, and an organized approach to marketing, your videos can sell very well.

SIV Producer, David Knarr tells us the strategy he developed to not only produce video titles that would sell, but to create a plan for promoting and selling them in this special podcast with included PDF booklet with all of the details.

Using appropriate music in your videos enhances the mood or captures the emotion of a particular scene, making it memorable and able to reinforce a particular message or brand. Using the right music is often very effective when used appropriately in promotional and corporate video productions.

If this is true, then why, as video professionals, do we just slap on any old music bed from our music library and call it a day? Whatever sounds good goes, right?

We pick the brain of Emmy Award winning composer Bruce Zimmerman about how music can actually ruin your video if not carefully thought through. We talk about how to choose the right music to convey the message or feeling you’re trying to put across to the audience.
