Take a look at the demos we have created for you, using streaming video and audio technology:

What is Streaming Video?

Streaming media is video and audio that can be accessed and viewed in real-time over the internet. These files are not actually downloaded, but sent in “streams” from a server via the web.

Streaming Video and Audio Technology is used for online broadcasting where compelling and visually stimulating content is an intended goal.

Enhance Your Website by Adding YouTube Videos

You can enhance your website by adding YouTube videos to communicate with your visitors. This offers a trendy alternative to just text, and depending on your video content, can be a great sales and marketing tool, or convey a particular message you want your site visitors to see and hear.

Advantages of Streaming Video

Streaming video works automatically with your customers’ browsers so does not require any download software or anything else. Load times are reduced, while maintaining the impact of video. You can develop and create video and Flash from the same content; and create a new look in developed websites to help win clients and keep visitors coming back.

Streaming video is not just for websites. From the most simple, basic materials, digital video, sounds, animation and text can be integrated into a product created for CDROM, DVD, email or local hard disk use as well.

Streaming Audio

Streaming audio uses the same technology, except that the ‘voice’ quality and presentation is very important if your customers are to listen to your message.

To help build your list of subscribers and increase your cash flow, you could use audio streaming for welcome messages, emails, audio postcards and much more.

Learn more and experience our audio voiceover demo on our Music and Movement page, and learn more about how you can use audio streaming on our Video and Audio Conversions page.

Increase your Return on Investment (ROI)

Using multimedia products, such as streaming video and streaming audio, will give you a high return on investment. Once a project is completed and implemented, expenditure virtually ceases.

Using bespoke 3D and video within a presentation is sometimes the magic ingredient. It can be the difference between a highly effective presentation and a presentation which blows the audience away. Your presentation can be delivered on CDROM, DVD, the internet, or for your own network. To learn more, visit these pages:

Virtual Tours

Streaming video is a creative tool for presenting virtual tours, namely video pan and zoom movies of products, people, landscapes, real-estate, sports, news travel brochures, and many more subjects - and all created from still images in standard formats.

Creating a virtual tour can make a huge difference to sales for many business owners. Customers can ‘walk through’ your offline store, watch a fashion show, look around the boat you want to sell, watch your product in use, or anything you want to showcase.

Virtual House Tours are becoming more popular by the day, and real estate agents are recognising the benefits of being able to show prospective buyers in and around a property, before taking them to visit.

Virtual Tour for Property Sales
An example of a virtual house tour has been created here, for you to experience. This tour was created from several still images, turned into streaming video with ‘fade’ and zoom’ techniques, then music added.

Take a look – you may well feel you want to visit the real thing!

Product Demos

Answer your customers’ question ‘how does it work?’ with a product demonstration blended from a sequence of still digital photographs. Add voice and music to give you a facility to load into a portable device anywhere you wish. Seeing how something works is far more impressive than reading advertisements or sales materials, and greatly increases the likelihood of closing a sale.

Product Demo for Car Sales Company – Dream Car
An example of a product demo has been created here, for you to experience. See some ‘dream’ cars from the outside; view the interior; see the engine working; and watch the performance.

Created from still images, turned into streaming video (flash) with ‘fade’ and zoom’ techniques, animation added, and music.

Take a look – you may well feel you want to test drive the real thing!

We can produce product demos of anything you want. Just contact us or ask for a free quotation

TV Commercials

TV Commercials can be produced which conform to meet the technical requirements for television transmission, which are different than internet and local media, such as Video, CDROMs and DVDs.

If you want to advertise locally, you can increase awareness and attract many new customers to your website and local outlet. Even national and international companies are moving towards localised TV advertising, to promote their branches or sponsor local businesses.

Brand Product for Retail Stores – Harvest to Home
An example of a TV commercial has been created here, for you to experience. It is to advertise a fictitious national organic vegetable and fruit producing company called ‘Harvest to Home’, with local farms in every area supplying fresh produce on a daily basis to local stores.

Very juicy and tempting images of food blend; fade or zoom into each other to flow into streaming video (flash), which will make your mouth water and want to lick the screen!

Take a look – you may want to rush out and buy the produce!
