Promoting Your Work
Promotion is just as important (if not more so) than your work. Give as much thought to the title, thumbnail, and description as you do to filming or editing. You may have a great video but who will view it if it doesn't’t have an appealing teaser abstract? A good teaser abstract is your lure. The teaser abstract may be the only part of your video that ever gets seen by the public so make it attractive and put your best image forward.

The SHOOT Video Publicity Release Features:

Create "Micro-Moments" to win new clients over time
Motion picture producers have access to digital information like never before at anytime and anywhere. This 24/7/365 access leads to sudden realizations (i.e.. epiphanies) for “next moves” toward improving production quality, process, and reducing costs. They want to immediately search and find constructive information that will form strategies and develop contacts to build on these realizations. These "Micro Moments" can happen at anytime of the day or night. The information found in these "micro-moments" can be the genesis that leads to changes in their workflow processes, purchasing, vendor and talent relationships. If you don’t cater to these "micro-moments," then you're losing out on perfect marketing opportunities to be a part of your rapidly changing clients and prospects mind set. Companies and artisans that prepare, wait, and position themselves to be found in these “micro moments” become the genesis of change for their clients and prospects instead of the victim of change. The SPW Video Release is a simple, fast, means to create a “mircro-moment."

Artisans This Is Your Wake up Call.... “Market Yourself! Subtly ”
There are artisans. And, then there are best selling artisans. Are you a talented artisan hoping that someone else sells your talents for an upcoming motion picture project? You may have a long wait in today's highly competitive digital environment. Getting noticed by production and postproduction decision-makers is no easy feat. An SPW Video Release is a smart move because your potential clients engage with the SHOOT platform every day to stay connected with what's new in the industry and to learn about new methods and resources important to their success and future growth.
