Video and Internet Stuff, LLC

Yes. We can be hired for contract videography work. We’ve done work for all kinds of TV stations, websites, companies, production houses, celebrities, and others. Contact us and let us know your needs and gear requirements.

Think about the purpose of your video production. What are your goals? Where will your video be seen? Who do you want to watch your video? What do you want your viewers to do after watching your video? What is your video production budget? When must the video be finished? Write those things down. Then contact us. We will listen to you, think about an approach, and then get you a written estimate for our services.

iPhones and other modern phones that record video are getting increasingly better at recording video. We can accept almost all types of video recorded on a phone. However, we prefer that you contact us before recording anything. We can share our best practices for recording quality video and how to send us once it’s recorded. During the time of COVID-19, lockdowns, and working from home, phone video popularity has increased exponentially. Part of our COVID pivot was to show our clients how to.

We can record your video conference from Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WebEx, or a variety of other videoconferencing solutions. We have developed a process that will provide you with the best-looking video that you can get from your participants. We will also help coach your participants on how to look good and sound good on a video conference or video call. We can also take your raw recordings and edit out any awkward mistakes or pauses to leave you with a more polished and professional video.

Most people will view your video online on a site like Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, or other social media sites. We can help you upload your video or even upload it for you. If you have proprietary information to share, we can suggest password-protected sharing options or even host a video on a temporary basis. If you have a special case where internet access is an issue, we can create DVDs, BluRay Discs, CDs, or thumb drives for you.

The length of your video depends on the purpose of the video, the demographic of your audience, and where people are viewing the video. If you simply need eyeballs, clicks, or phone calls, concise videos around one to two minutes work well. If you need to explore something that has a medium to complicated explanation to it, that will take a few minutes. If you’re documenting your organization’s response to COVID-19, or something that involved a lot of people, that may take 10 minutes or more. If you are selling a product or service to a corporation and appealing to executives in charge of the purchase decisions, you may need a much longer video. We can suggest what might work for you once we have a conversation.

The time it takes to make your video is very dependent on your needs, the scope of your project, and your timeline. 90% of our projects are recorded and completed within two weeks to 90 days, not including the planning process. Other, large projects have taken six months to more than a year to complete. A small number of projects have been recorded and completed within 24-48 hours. These projects usually involve the recording and light editing of a live event, meeting, or live stream. The best way to have this question answered for you is to drop us an email or fill out the contact form on this site. Once we talk about your needs, we can give you a realistic answer.

The best answer we can give you is… it depends. It depends on the scale and scope of your project. It depends on the number of videography sessions and locations needed to capture your footage. It depends on the equipment necessary to capture what’s required to fulfill your vision for your video. There are three variables with regards to video production: Equipment, people, and time. The more you have of any one of those variables, the more things cost. We can work with most budgets and custom-design the right fit for your video production.
