Creating content that rocks

As part of a greater content strategy, video — as a means of providing content — is an essential tool for engaging an audience, and so we started our production journey with our own company video.

Why is video is an important part of content strategy?

Video provides a way to engage more directly with people, to tell a story, and to make information more accessible.

Individuality and personality: video is a great way to bring content to life
Engaging and creative: we live in a visual world and video provides a way to tell the story.
Accessible: video makes the people behind the business more approachable, which encourages more open conversation
Multi-sensory: video allows people to have different ways to engage online
Enriching: video gives the online experience a different rhythm; it shakes up the content
Shareable: video lends itself to being easily shared via online channels
Complementary: video works alongside written content and images to create a rich story.
