YouTube?
Anyone use Youtube? I have only incorporated still pictures to this point but plan on some more elaborate stuff this summer.
Any suggestions for improvements? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSWIRdSebZw

Re: YouTube?
two suggestions: lose that song; songs with words distract from the message. use instrumental music as background.
also, you need more examples of your work - looks like just one deck in that clip. very nice start though. |

Re: YouTube?
I don't have speakers for my computer at the office so I can't offer an opinion of the song but VERY interesting idea...
Were the photographs taken by a professional photographer?

Re: YouTube?
Very interesting idea! I think I might have to try this strategy once our new site is launched!

Re: YouTube?
I love this idea, have you gotten any calls from this? How do you market to get people to go there?
Constructive critisim: I like the song, but it is distracting. If you have more photos, I would add them. Do you have a website and can you incorporate this into it? Thanks for the idea!! |

Yes, I have a website and may include some of the videos in my blog. Bury the Youtube videos with keywords and they will rank just as high as any blog posts.

Re: YouTube?
I like it - the idea but you have to be very aware of using copywrited music, especially for commercial/monetary gains. Maybe use summer sounds like birds singing and such.

Re: YouTube?
Great Pictorial
On each slide / at bottom 1) Your Company Name 2)website across bottom of each slide - It shows too little time and hard to react 3)phone number on each slide Gives Viewer a chance to write down your info Terry |

Re: YouTube?
Nice video. I have just made my first video and placed it on youtube. I plan on making a bunch more and using them on my website. I think anything that gets your name in front of people is going to help.
