Coming soon! Step by step to creating online video marketing tool!

Hi everyone and thank you for your feedback to the Youtube video I posted showcasing the Magic Mountain Toboggan ride.  I have been asked how specifically I created the film so I am currently editing together a 'step by step' video to show you how exactly I made the film.  I expect it to be online in the next day or so so keep an eye out.  in it I will be showing you how to add titles, music do some basic grading (changing the quality of the picture) all using i movie which is a standard install on Mac computers.  If you are using a PC do not worry, the processes are exactly the same, you just need to drive your software slightly differently.  Oh by the way, the way I do it may not be the perfect way to do it, it is the way I have taught myself by actually getting in there and experimenting.  The purpose of the film is to show you that it is all about taking action, experimenting and having fun.
Anyway I had better get back to it.
That's all for now...
That's a wrap!

Promote Your Business With video

 A quick and easy way to promote your business through video is by showing the customer what they can expect to experience.  This video was created using imovie and a very basic stills camera (Canon Ixus) in video mode.  By adding music and titles and doing some very basic grading, again using the tools in imovie the end result looks great and really gives the viewer a sense of what to expect at Magic Mountain.  This video took 5 minutes to shoot, and about 30 minutes to edit and upload - 35 minutes of time invested to create an online showcase that can be used in many areas of web promotion - website, blog, social media etc.  at very low cost.  One of the ways you can use online video in your business using the 500 Dollar Film Studio System

See behind the scenes!

I am excited to share the link to a bonus video I have created for you to show you how you can still make a great video without actually appearing on camera your self.  I made this in the Kodak Zi8 shot at 720p and edited it very simply with  imovie which was is installed in all Mac computers.  I hope you enjoy it.
