Digital Video Production Company Preston, Lancashire, Northwest.
Graham Baldwin
Coming from a background in advertising, marketing and publishing, I have spent many years working with designers, copywriters and photographers in the production of press advertising, direct mail and off-the-page selling.
As a Master Member of the Institute of Videography with twelve years experience as a cameraman and editor behind me, I believe that I have a well developed understanding of what is required to make an effective piece of video communication.
As a producer, I am personally involved in the filming all our work either as a cameraman or director and we bring in additional cameramen, sound and lighting crews as required.
I have also worked for many years as a semi-pro musician, so have a good understanding of performance, music presentation, sound recording and all things aesthetic!
Currently a member of various creative and business groups in Manchester and Preston I strive to keep abreast of our rapidly developing digital video world.
How It's Done
Commissioning a video can be a little daunting if you haven't done it before as the video production process can appear to be a little bit of a mystery. However here at VISIONFOURVIDEO we will make sure that the process is made as transparent as possible for you so as to relieve you of any necessary concerns. You can also send for our FREE GUIDE to help you understand and prepare for the process.
We will sit down with you and explain the basic stages of production and discuss all the major aspects of your video - its objective, the target audience, style, format, running time, how and where it will be used, budget and time scales etc . We will then write a script, which when approved, will be linked to a shot list so that you can see clearly what is going to be included in your video.
We will also produce a basic video production schedule showing the critical dates throughout the production process along with your involvement and responsibilities. Finally, a draft edit complete with music and narration will be presented to you for your approval.
If the video is for use on your website, then we will relieve you of any hassle by negotiating directly with your web master and send a file type of their choice directly to them.

Maureen Harrison Central Lancashire NHS
"We used VISIONFOURVIDEO for the video production of our latest training film. Their creative input was invaluable and they produced a video which was an innovative way of communicating a rather controversial message to our staff. They made a difficult exercise seem relatively easy and I am more than happy to recommend their video production services."

Whilst producing the Mellors promotional video, Graham from VISIONFOURVIDEO met these challenges with a no fuss, professional approach and produced a web video that captured exactly the tone and feel we wanted for our customers and went well beyond our expectations.
