Hello from Atlanta Business Video! It has been a great week here at the new ABV studio. Producer Roger Stix returned from his family vacation in Maine and we immediately got back to business! This week brought us 4 days of in-studio shooting- including a commercial that we are shooting today, featuring 6 actors. We have been in our new studio at 690 Miami Circle for just over 3 months now- and are loving the new location! If you haven’t had the opportunity to come by and see the new studio- call us, and we’d be happy to give you a tour.
We have several exciting projects coming in the next few weeks, and samples of the new work should be appearing in different areas on our website.

ABV Update- Filming 10,000 Graduates, Open House, Vacation, and Daniel Grissom’s Value Creation

Last Sunday, Erin, Megan and I videoed Victor Antoino, presenting the commencement address to 12,000 people at the University of Phoenix Graduation at Phillips Arena. Victor as hired us to produce a 15 minute documentary. This is our first time working together. The customers ability to communiacate what they want makes our job easier and Victor has been wonderful explaining what he wants.

On Tuesday we had the open house. The first guest arrived at 11:15. The last 8 of us left at 9:00. About 150 friends stopped by.

My close friend and client Daniel Grissom, spoke about how our products and services are being commoditized as buyers focus on price. “Selling is dead, value creation is alive”. Individually, we all need to create value for our customers in order for them to buy from us. This makes them buy you first, your product or service second and the brand third.

To create value for al my friends, prospects and clients, I’m trying to encourage Daniel to speak again about ways we can create value for our clients. If you enjoyed his presentation please let me know as I’m sure that will help me convince him that he is getting value from giving them as well.

We finished the initial edit of an excellent video for “Water for Life”, featuring our good friend Joyce Bone as talent. I’m very pleased with the messaging. Pete VanCleave, Ned Nimm and I went through several revisions before making every word just right.

Erin is on vacation all next week. Victor is coming in Monday morning to look at the initial edit. Megan is doing the editing. I reviewed the piece before leaving the studio Friday and it is fabulous. Megan got a wonder clip from one of the upper levels of the arena shooting down from behind the dais with Victor on Stage at the bottom, graduates in their gowns covering the floor and thousands of friends and families filling the stands and Victor’s image on the jumbotron at the top.

How to publish video to Facebook and tag people

Tagging people in videos (and photos) on Facebook is a great way to spark conversation amongst people with whom you are connected on. But for those new to the idea of tagging it may not be so intuitive.

This video effectively demonstrates how to tag friends in a video so that the video appears on their wall. Tagging essentially offers the ability to nudge someone on the shoulder without having to message them because Facebook notifies the person.

The first part of the video shows how to upload a video to your Facebook profile. This is done by going to the Photos are in your profile and then clicking on the Upload Video option. From here you may choose to upload the video from your computer, reference a URL, or record a video on the fly using your web cam. The video only explains how to upload.

Once uploaded you then can associate, or “tag” people with whom you are connected (these are your friends). By tagging people the video appears in their Wall feed which gives others the ability to see them in the video.
