Inexpensive Video Production |
May 3 2023

Posted in: Video Production |
Video or Film? What is the difference and why is film making so much more expensive? In today's technology rich production environment there is literally no difference between making YouTube videos and Films. In the early days of video, just like the early days of film, only black and white was an option, editing was rare and as far as computers, you still used a dumb terminal that connected to a phone modem to use a centralized mainframe that had about as much processing power as a small calculator. Where as Film was just that, film that ran through ...read more

Paying Influencers to Pitch Your Product |
April 29 2023
|
Posted in: Social Media |
Companies have been getting lost in the realm of social media. In fact, many have given up their traditional advertising altogether in hopes that using social media influencers will be enough. Sure, I get it, Olivia Dunne or LIVVY as most know here, may have upwards of 7 million followers on TIKTOK stopping by daily to see he adorable, cute sexy outfits and dances but if she suddenly tries to sell those followers a product, will they listen? Will they actually be influenced? The answer is, NOT LIKELY! People, teens or any consumer is not that stupid, they now ...read more

Posted in: Content Creation |
How To Make YouTube Video Cheap Who ever told you that making videos was expensive? Who told you that you need a professional video company to make a simple YouTube video? If anyone did, they are wrong. People are making millions of videos every day and uploading them to YouTube, TikTok and Instagram from their phones. Did you know that the current iPhone is as good as most professional cameras? At least as for as quality, not necessarily functionality. More complex cameras can do much more and get better quality for particular shots. But an iPhone is just fine ...read more

Outsourcing Content on Fiverr |
November 26 2022
|
Posted in: Content Creation |
Social media has created a huge outsourcing market on sites like FIVERR. I see all these ads, people who are content experts, they can do this and that for $25, $35... bla bla bla. The truth is, if they were any good at creating viral video content to build traffic, they would be doing it for themselves. Why would someone create a video for you, if they could make more money creating a video for themselves? Simple, the $35 you are paying is more than they could earn from doing it themselves. And that does not speak well of ...read more

Why Do You Charge Flat Fees for Video Production? |
November 20 2022
|
Posted in: Videography Pricing |
We constantly have videographers quoting us flat rates for video production. I will charge you $500 for a 10 minute video they say. I don't get it and I don't want it! You are fired before you even have the job. Why? One, because you are an idiot, since you have no clue what is involved, how long I expect you to film, how many different scenes or what is involved in set up or editing. The only way you can make a stupid statement like "I charge a flat rate" is because you have zero experience, have no ...read more

Struggling with Actors and Actresses |
November 20 2022
|
Posted in: Talent |
One of the most difficult challenges we face as a small studio is getting talented actors and actresses for our videos. Everyone thinks they can do it, everyone believes the can be the next Will Smith or Nicolas Cage. Bad talent not only costs you a load of money, it is distracting, hurts crew moral and just tires out everyone who at some point just want to get the shoot over and leave it to the editor to fix. If we are making content for a client, they are paying for the wasted time and likely getting a crappy ...read more

The Importance of Props in Videos |
November 20 2022

Posted in: Video Props |
Mr Dog Poop Studios has invested heavily in props, particularly vintage props to support the main character in our Mr Dog Poop Unleashed series. And until you start making videos, you don't realize how important props are to elevate your video to the next level. As a content creator, I look for opportunities with the props available. What rooms do I have, what kind of interesting content can I create using what I already have. I see loads of videos that are just a complete mess because of the poorly planned set. Sure, they used their living room or ...read more
