The Power of Video In Today’s Economy

Monday, July 27th, 2009

In today’s world, companies have more choices than ever as they look to effectively inform, educate, and persuade employees, customers, and other stakeholders. “The AVS Group has helped clients transition from traditional video communications on videotape or CD to Web and DVD-based media,” notes Rob Ramseier, the AVS Group’s video team leader and producer.

This article spotlights several ways that organizations have successfully used the power of Web-based video to drive revenue and communicate effectively. These benefits have been made possible by three key technology advancements, which are reviewed in this article. Lastly, we highlight the benefits of DVD and explain why DVD is leading the wave of the future for professional development and promotional applications.

Web-based video: business spotlights

There are seemingly endless ways for organizations to leverage the power of Web-based video as part of their overall marketing strategy. When the video content offered is high quality and in-demand, there is an opportunity to convert it into revenue. In 2004, Major League Baseball (MLB) earned an additional $135 million by offering streamed baseball games via MLB.com. In 2005, MLB streamed 2,300 games during the season.

Web-based video does not have to be sold in order for the content to create a positive affect on revenue. Organizations now use progressive downloading to launch on-camera customer testimonials or product and service demonstrations from their Web sites. These brief Web-based video segments can be used to strengthen an organization’s brand identity. A strong brand identity has been proven to increase revenue.

Web-based video can be more than a brief clip. Organizations are now offering their stakeholders streamed versions of comprehensive Web-based video presentations such as product introductions, product training and tutorials, executive announcements, etc. while still providing high-quality video.

The key to successful Web-based video is to understand how to properly utilize its power, then developing the right strategy to take advantage of the technology.

Web-based video: technology drivers

So, how has Web-based video become a realistic element to incorporate into a marketing strategy? Several technology advancements, including the growing adoption of broadband, market saturation of Macromedia Flash Player, and advancements in video compression have made the benefits of Web-based video possible.

A broadband Internet connection is a necessity for a good experience when viewing Web-based video. The good news is that the adoption rate of broadband has dramatically increased. As shown in Figure 1, only 4.8 million homes in the United States had adopted broadband as of 2000. However, the number of broadband households increased by a factor of nearly 10 to 42.4 million in 2005, and is expected to reach 83 million by 2010.

In addition to the growing adoption of broadband, Macromedia Flash Player is now installed on more than 97.7 percent of all internet-enabled PCs in the world. This is a staggering statistic and provides some level of assurance that if an organization produces Flash-based video content, its audience will be able to view it online as intended.

There have also been a number of advancements in the last few years regarding video compression, which have made Web-based video much more accessible to the viewer. Simply put, compression is the process of removing data from a video file. The key is to remove the right amount of data so that quality is not sacrificed. Multimedia developers can now make fewer compromises in quality by making less significant reductions in frame rate or frame size to reduce file size. The end result is a higher quality video that can be played effectively over the Web.

Just some brief words of caution. Producing video for the Web does present some challenges that one would not typically face if the delivery device were media like videotape or DVD. “Special care must be taken in all phases of the production process,” notes Ramseier. “The setting and background, camera moves, lighting, and sound all have to be optimized to ensure that the compressed video provides the highest quality content for the audience.”

DVD: The media of choice

DVD is leading the wave of future video communications because organizations can provide audiences with a comprehensive and rich experience. DVD is quickly becoming the media of choice for video-based training and promotional tools, although many producers currently do not take advantage of the full possibilities of the media.

With DVD, audiences can experience multiple camera angles, convenient fast forward/rewind features, multilingual versions of the content, and much more. DVDs also run approximately nine times faster and can store up to 25 times more content than a CD. Aside from the technical benefits, current estimates predict that 450 million households worldwide will have a DVD player by 2008.

According to DVD Demystified, “The low cost of hardware and discs, the widespread use of players, and the availability of authoring systems, make DVD ideal for industrial training, professional development, sales presentations, home education, and any other application where full-screen, full-motion video and audio are needed for effective instruction.” According to the National Training Labs Institute, multimedia computer training leads to a 70 percent retention rate.

DVD is also well suited for promotional tools. Web site visitors can view short Web-based video segments of a program, and then order the full DVD. A DVD can hold entire catalogs to inform, educate, and persuade an audience, as well as supplemental content like an interactive video tour, product demonstrations, and helpful on-screen menus to make the program simple for users to navigate effectively.

In closing, organizations should consider the variety of media options now available for distributing their video content. It can be leveraged on the Web to inform, educate, and persuade a global audience. In addition, DVD provides companies with many options for distributing video content for education and training applications as well as promotional tools.

Crime on the Rise as Recession Bites

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

The effects of recession are being seen across many aspects of life, but with such significant changes happening in the social sphere, who is winning and who is losing out?

The police are all set to have an extremely busy few years. There has already been a 25% increase in personal thefts and a 4% increase in burglaries since the recession took hold. The figures even suggest that knifepoint robberies increased by 5%, figures the metropolitan police certainly will try to underplay. The trend is clear, the recession has paved the way for a significant rise in robberies.

Car crime in the UK already happens at an astonishing level; there are 2 million car crime offences every year. Dwell on that number for a moment, 2 million car crime offences every year, that’s 5479 every single day. The police have already got a job on their hands keeping those figures down, but with an uncertain future and a recession looming overhead, those figures are surely set to rise.

It is indeed ironic to note, that during these times of economic turmoil, there are new companies thriving on the climate generated by the very recession itself. Capitalism has the uncanny ability to turn any increase or decrease in social trends into a market. So where does the opportunity lie? Tradesmen’s vehicles are the most targeted – as Inspector Steve Worron of Essex Police explains.

“There is a much stronger chance of tradesmen’s commercial vehicles being broken into as they usually contain the high value equipment such as power tools that thieves target.”

Constantly the target of the organised theft of their power-tools, they are now turning to the installation of a van vault to protect their precious cargo. The vault basically consists of a large impenetrable box which is bolted to the floor of your van, which means that if anyone does manage to get in the van, they will never break their way through to the booty. The company has recently seen a rise in sales, no doubt generated by the fear in the increased crime rates.

It’s not just the rise in crime that a zombie like profit driven system has turned into a market to gain from. Liquidation companies have never been busier; as companies fold into bankruptcy their assets are sold to the highest bidder, meaning the people running these auctions are having a bumper year.

“The amount of work we’re getting from liquidators has at least doubled over the last year,” said Ricky Wilson, general manager of Wilsons Auctions.

The profits don’t stop there, debt collectors, storage companies, fraud investigators, bailiffs, and recruitment companies specialising in outsourcing are all having a whale of a time whilst the world’s belt buckles.

Durom Recall Patients Are Suing Extremely Promptly

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

Many citizens of the US get joint replacements each year. It is a way for elderly people, and for those who have overused their joints, to get more years of activity and enjoyment out of their lives. Because this procedure has become so routine, many do not question their doctors, or the manufacturers of their joint replacements about the quality of the technology that they are using. This has tended to cause practices which could even produce damage to you or those you care about. If you are acquainted with anyone who has gotten a hip replaced, continue reading this crucial information on the maker, zimmer durum.

The modern hip replacement operation has been taking place since the 1970’s, which is why the idea may seem so commonplace to you. A hip replacement, such as those from Zimmer Durom, most commonly involves three separate pieces, designed to mimic how a natural knee joint would. The use a substitute part made of metal to replace a section of the femur bone. The device is held in place with screws and mimics the natual joint movement for the most part.

One of the most common issues with hip replacements is the need for revision, or a further surgery to correct issues with the implant. Unfortunately, this is something many elderly and even healthy young patients cannot tolerate. This is the special target of the zimmer hip lawyer. The Zimmer Durom device was used by doctors in younger patients that would normally need a hip replacement, as it was designed to be long lasting. However, almost 12 percent of these patients needed surgery again within two years, prompting an outcry.

In the event that you or an acquaintance had an operation to replace a hip in the past few years, inquire of your physician whether it was a Zimmer Duron. In the event that it was, whether your hip replacement has failed or not at this point, you can participate in a legal class action. You will lose your rights if you sign a legal release by Zimmer Durom.

How to Groom Your Presentations for Your Job Interviews

KISS: Keep it short and simple

A few important concepts that are better explained will come across more clearly than a lot of text designed to impress the audience. Your interviewers do not have the time to analyse the information as you deliver it.

The rule of three

Most people cannot call up more than three items at a time. Many memorable quotes come in 3 parts: Veni, Vedi, Vici, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Education, Education, Education,
Ready, Steady, Go, etc.

If feasible, organise your presentation in 3 bigprincipalcentralfundamental themes (one per slide). On each slide, tryseekendeavorendeavourattempt to focuscentercentre on three3 keycentralprincipalimportantessentialfundamentalbigprimarymain ideas. If you have too many pointsaimsitemsdetails on one page, you may want to breakchunk them down in two2 different more focussedcentredconcentratedcenteredfocused themestopicsideasstemsstreamsconcepts to break upseparatesplit upfragmentbreak downsplit up the messagecontentsubject mattersubstance ininto more digestible chunks

Rule of three3 applied to a presentation on the critical appraisal of your career so far:

THEME 1 – Presentation of Experience
Career progression & Exams taken;
Important skills and expertise acquired;
Involvement in academic activities.

THEME 2 – Demonstration of commitment to speciality and self development
Cours es and conferences attended;
Special interests developed;
Initiative taken in developing services and improving standards.

THEME 3 – Areas where further development is needed
Great emphasis on teaching; want to enhance research portfolio;
Keen to enhance further teaching experience (Med Ed. Degree);
Solid experience of endoscopy; further training required for possible
subspecialisation.

Visual aids

In mostwell-nigh allnearly allvirtually allalmost all interviews, the nature of the visual aids will be imposed. This could include:

No visual aids at all
A4 white paper sheets
Acetates
Electronic (e.g. on USB chip or CD Rom)

Identify the requirements before you start as it may dictate the manner in which you organise your ideas.

EnsureDetermineAscertainCheckVerifySuss Out too that you have sufficientadequatedecentenough back-up. For example:

Maqui Berry

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

Maqui Berry, a revolutionary supplement in the fast-moving super food market! Maqui Berry liquid product has the greatest ORAC of any noted superfood based liquidsupplement; with an oxygen radical absorbance capacity value 400 – 3000 percent higher than the common Acai, Goji Berry, Pomegranate, Noni and Mangosteen dietary supplements.
Antioxidants remain the foundation of good health and longevity. As we age, our cells continue to be affected by free radicals; our organs begin to degenerate and aging accelerates, states Dr. Ward Bond, television host of Nutritional Living. The body has built-in defense mechanisms to protect itself from free radical damage, but eventually, aging depletes the bodys ability to keep oxidants at bay. Maqui Berry is packed with antioxidants called anthocyanins and contains the greatest antioxidant valuevalues ever found among all berries or fruit. Maqui Berry is best in class for antioxidant products, the best recognized strategy for healthy aging, inhibiting free radical cells, strengthening the immune system and is a natural COX-2 inhibitor.
Maqui Berry, whose antioxidant value value is certified by Brunswick Laboratories, is one of the most power-packed with anthocyanins of all the fruits and berries for supplemental consumption. Anthocyanins are produced by plants for self-protection against sun, irradiation, diseases and biological enemies; maqui thrives in the harsh climate of central and southern Chile, necessitating the plants abundant anthocyanin production.
The native Mapuche Indians of the Patagonia region in South America have for centuries benefited from the unique medicinal and healthy aging benefits of the Maqui Berry. Annie Eng spent months with the Mapuches researching and working with them to harvest Maqui, then worked with researchers to confirm its oxygen radical absorbance capacity content. After securing an exclusive distribution agreement in the United States, Eng initiated a socially responsible program that donates supplies and services for the education and healthcare of the Mapuche Indians, as well as programs to help protect the Mapuche native forest from further deforestation and industrialization.
