TheO is a fusion of physical play and mobile device technology.
It was recently listed as one of the cool new toys of 2012 by
Parents Magazine and Good Housekeeping.

The founders of the company asked us to help them create a media campaign to launch their product in the toy world.

Below is one part of the whole – a 30 second loop that showcased the product at a trade show in which they garnered the title “Best Toy of 2012″ by Popular Mechanics.

Check it out. Pretty cool concept – and the video is nice, too:)

Note, too, that the “hero shot” above was taken in-house by the skilled media professionals we have on-staff, whose talents apply to imaging – still and moving.

As ever, the commitment to high quality imagery in service of the stories that help you forward your brilliant ideas and products – we believe this is what separates us from our media production peers and provides you with the greatest ROI.

Respectfully,

Whit Wales – Executive Director – DigiNovations

What is one to do?

You have so many choices and decisions before you.

Perhaps you are tethered to the notion that you have to decide…DIY – do it yourself – or the “Hollywood corporate” production. Either way, you feel that you are paying a cost you cannot afford.

In DIY, you run the risk of creating such poor quality that you will turn clients away, or the process will be so time consuming that you were better off turning to a professional. Your fear in shopping for a qualified and trusted professional production company is that you will not be able to afford more than one video – and you know that you want more than a single statement. In marketing and sales it is about the campaign.

We understand and appreciate these concerns. Beyond producing exceptional videos, we think it important to be recognized as trusted partners as you create a video marketing strategy.

We are not threatened by DIY productions. We think it should be one of the many video arrows in your marketing quiver. In fact, we think it important to help guide you and your company  to improve your in-house production skills.

Moreover, we understand that not every presentation need be epic in nature. Sometimes, you simply need a “CEO-Think” piece whose video imagery and graphics help to elevate the quality of the dialogue. The example below is a short film we created for the Clean Energy Council of New England upon the occasion of their annual Green Tie Gala in Boston.

The organization wanted to acknowledge current sponsors and encourage new ones while celebrating the vitality and articulate nature of the alternative energy community. We also filmed for them the keynote address and awards ceremony for internal purposes. In essence, for very little investment, we created a short marketing piece while providing them with content which they may re-purpose or use as an evaluative tool in creating next year’s program.

All this, of course, involves planning and collaboration to determine when you will want to produce a signature film that will live upon your home page for two years and influence all who view it. There are the “workhorse” videos that support the seasonal and seminal events for your company; and then there are the down-to-earth educational video blogs that will fill in the gaps and identify your organization as on that is both technically savvy and current with trends in your industry. And, of course, it goes without saying that you will want to partner with a production company that understands how to make all of your work not only web-savvy but mobile device savvy as well.

The analyses regarding the effectiveness of video on the web is compelling. It is no longer a question of “If” but “When” And in the case of “How” it is no longer “Either/Or” but “Yes – And…”

As ever, if you like our work and would like to talk, we always welcome and enjoy the opportunity.
