Want To Start A Video Production Business?

By Matt Hawthorn


Beginning a video production business is a lot easier than it used to be. This article thinks you have a working knowledge of video cameras, marketing, and intenet SEO marketing and advertising. No good having the abilities if you do not know how to promote your business.

The very first thing to consider is whether you've got the appropriate gear to call yourself a full scale production company. If you don't already have them, the Canon D5 SLR photography cameras are a dream for shooting full quality, wonderful looking HD video pictures. You'll need transportable sound equipment, plus glide arms and a mini steadi-cam rig.

Get a couple of these with some lightweight sound provide and you're in business. You will need to budget for separate lenses but you'll get lots of camera and lenses for almost $10 000. This is tiny in professional video production.

You can always hire things like mini jib arms and cranes after you've got a job for a business. You're going to need an edit suite. Final Cut pro is a fantastic professional option but the latest copy of Adobe Premiere is a dream for editing HD images. Make sure you have a fast PC with solid state drives (SSD's) that don't cause no lag, and a very high spec graphic card.

Next up you need to find some work. Build an internet site or blog which is a free and cheap option, you will also be well placed to buy a pro blog theme which will make your website look the Shiz nit. Now it's to the marketing bit. You have 2 options. Adwords or S.E.O. Or both. Dependent on your market and town or neighborhood, you may be ready to rise up to the pinnacle of Google pretty fast with just a bit bit of back linking and directory submission work.

If this area isn't your forte run 1 or 2 advertisements on Adwords. Before you do that head to You Tube for some Adwords training. Try not to get to concerned with the company who's running the videos or you can finish up paying them money to do a simple job you can do, if you only carry out as little as 30 mins of video coaching.

Your ad should mention professional video production. Or if you want a lucrative side job you could perform marriage videography. Your ad should display wedding videos, or professional wedding videograpy Arlington (or whatever city you are in). Bid on the keywords suitable to your ad, and then choose your city or area only as the selected area for your advert.
