If you need a brand new, from the bottom up site designed, built and launched, Act One is your source. Do you need assistance with your existing site or need to add a video clip, then contact us and lets see what we can do for you.
 
 
MAKE YOUR WEBSITE STAND OUT…MAKE IT MOVE…ADD VIDEO!
In a world where everybody has a website, it’s important to make yours stand out.  In essence, this is your commercial. You can give a tour of your facility, demonstrate a product or service, show your staff in action and impress potential clients with testimonial from satisfied customers. Think about how much you spend printing and mailing marketing materials.  Imagine your savings if you could just refer your potential customers to your website.

You can have a 3 to 5 minute professionally-produced video made exclusively for your business that can be added to your existing website, and will run 24 hours a day, every day.  Any customer visiting your site will be able to quickly see what sets your business apart from others. You can do this by adding motion and sound video. Unlike video of the past, streaming video does not need to be downloaded.  The promotional streaming video of your business will play almost immediately, and at a much better quality than ever before possible.

Studies have shown (by people who study this kind of thing) that 97% of all visitors to a website that has streaming video will watch the entire video.  Imagine if 97% of all those who visit your site were to watch a promotional video about your company.  Most websites today have many pages of text to wade through.  Most customers view a few pages and soon give up.  Web developers waste much time and energy on pages and menus that may never be viewed at all.  A promotional streaming video can show your entire business in a few short minutes in a much more entertaining way.  Just as everyone is accustomed to watching a TV commercial, your customers will feel right at home watching a video.  Nobody would consider watching a TV commercial that consisted of text alone.  Why have a website that requires your customers to read and read and read all about your business when they can simply watch?

We can add a professionally-produced, low cost, promotional streaming video to your website that can open a whole new world of opportunities.  You owe it to the future growth and success of your business to consider adding video to your site now.
 

 
Turn your laptop into a theatre! Act One can create a dynamic PowerPoint presentation for your next meeting. We can add graphics, video, pictures, narration and even music if you like. We can also put PowerPoint presentations on a video DVD for easy viewing. Let Act One Pictures work with you to create a powerful, effective and efficient marketing tool. Just imagine if all of your salespeople had such tools which you designed.
 
 
MAC platform’s work best with “.mov” (Quicktime) files while PC’s like “.avi” files best. It really depends on the application you will be working and viewing in. We always try to work with un-compressed , high quality video then after all work has been done export to the file type, size, bit rate, and other compression factors later.  Most audio files are .aif during the editing and then converted to .wav or mp3 when exporting. For a complete updated list of files types and platforms, please contact our office.
 
 
Act One has the tools to download video, audio or image files off the internet. We can upload to YouTube, Facebook, Google, ftp sites or your own web site. Uploaded files can be compressed prior to sending and we can convert files to most formats. Main factors to consider before uploading would be screen size, maximum file size, and bit rate. All of these combine together to get the best quality possible while staying within the maximum file size.
