Who is Avenstar?

Avenstar Productions is a Colorado Interactive Media Company. Simply put, we use dynamic media such as film and video to bring our clients highly-increased visibility and, ultimately, bigger revenues. The current online climate is quickly moving towards high-speed video content, very much like television. Avenstar develops that content and helps you market more effectively than other marketing companies.

Our approach to marketing involves getting to know who the customer is and then reaching out to that customer so a communication can be initiated and maintained. From there trust is established and a long-term relationship is built.

Although our homebase is Boulder, Colorado we have customers all around the world - from California to Australia.

Read on to find out all the interactive services that Avenstar Productions provides.

Film-like videos, anyone?

It all starts with a great story. At Avenstar we understand this and work with some of the best writers in the business.

If you don't instill an emotional (or other) response from your viewer/customer, you will have a much tougher time converting a sale. So we take the story-telling aspect very seriously.

We also produce beautiful HD video... but with a big difference than most other media producers... we utilize special 35mm adapters and cameras that create a visually beautiful picture - very much like film. The results are incredible.

That's right, we produce videos that look like film! The next time you watch your favorite TV show look at how it's filmed. Let's say you're watching The Closer, and Kyra Sedgewick is studying the crime scene. If Kyra is talking, the camera is focusing in on her and the background is slightly out of focus so that attention is on Kyra, not the background... and the viewer is not distracted. That (along with the music and the editing, etc.) is what pulls us in. And that's why it's good news for you that we at Avenstar Productions can give you that same film-like production quality.

Shamshara - An Avenstar Productions 90-Minute Feature Film!

shamsharaYep, we are producing our own full-length feature film due out October of 2010. Enjoy the trailer - Shamshara is an independent film that has been called The Secret meets What the Bleep with a dash of The Way of the Peaceful Warrior.

This docudrama (part interviews / part real stories reenacted) was directed by Mark McGinnis and produced by Mark and Kim McGinnis of Avenstar Productions and Andy Feld of Simple Happy, LLC.

And the film was made possible by hundreds of talented and like-minded individuals with a collective consciousness, one of hope and possibilities, not just for the future, but for NOW.

Note that the film was shot all across the western United States. This 90-minute docudrama feature film is still in production and the final scenes are anticipated to be finished by August of 2010. All primary photography was shot on the Canon 5D Mark II.

Why promote your business with video?

Traditional marketing used to be enough, but the world has changed.

Business owners and customers are becoming more sophisticated - they not only want to be informed, they want to be entertained.

5 reasons why video marketing works:

  1. SEO is now available for videos. Videos can now be optimized with keywords so they appear higher in the search engines than many content pages on the same subject.

  2. Videos capture the senses. Videos provide a moving picture with spoken words and music. When these elements are blended in a pleasing way the audience is touched on an emotional level. More sales are generated by tapping into emotion than by supplying simple facts.

  3. Videos expand your market. Many that used to go directly to Google for information now go to video-sharing sites like Vimeo and YouTube. If your videos aren't there you are missing out on a huge share of the market.

  4. Videos are the newest trend. It takes the average person a long time to change. The majority of marketers still use articles to promote their business- so if you use video you are way ahead of the competition.

  5. People like to watch more than read. Most people are too busy to read an article for the information they want. A well-produced video is much more enjoyable and can be much easier to understand.

What kind of video should I have made?

No matter what kind of video you decide to have produced keep in mind that you are telling a story. Why? Because people love stories. And if you tell it well you are 90 % closer to making the sale. And it just so happens that Avenstar Productions specializes in story-telling.

Here are some other tips to having a successful video produced to increase your business' bottom line...

video and marketing services

  1. Get help. Unless you are a professional video producer, hire a professional. If you attempt to make a video yourself to save a few dollars, you will probably do more harm than good. Many companies use sophisticated camera equipment (like Avenstar) so that your video has a film-like, professional-quality to it. We highly recommend having your video produced this way.

  2. Become a part of the process. Work with the producers of your videos so that the video has the branding and personality of "you" and your business.

  3. Don't settle. If something doesn't seem quite right express your concerns and rework all the weak points until you are left with a product that you love and feel represents you and your business in the best way possible.

  4. Educate yourself. If you are working with the right video production company they will explain the steps they took to get your video noticed. They will explain how to find and implement keywords, use the video-sharing sites, link strategies, take advantage of the social networking and blogging communities, and how to use press releases.

  5. Get referrals. Legitimate, successful production companies have raving fans. Check references and testimonials - this will shorten your list of prospective companies to work with - but it's well worth the effort.
