We shoot Music Videos! Are you a musician? Give us a call and we’ll put you on the path to Music Video nirvana. For those budget-minded individuals, we can create a simple, yet stunning, video, like the one we recently shot for local musician R a e f:

For those with more budget, we can work on the more complicated projects that need the heavy-duty extras. We can shoot against a blue screen and replace the background – making it look like you’re playing at a large theater-style concert, in outer space, or on the Titanic. Your options are virtually limitless…

English & Spanish Videos

We want your videos and films to hit as wide of a market as possible. We can translate your video from English to a more neutral Spanish. What do we mean by “neutral spanish?” We work to create a Spanish that is understandable by the majority of spanish speakers around the world – from Spain to Mexico to Peru. Each accent is spoken differently, so special detail must be placed at certain key areas. For instance, in Madrid (Spain) they pronounce their “D” as the voiced dental fricative “TH” as in “this”, and their “C” as the voiceless dental fricative “TH” as in “thing”

The above video was made for Frey Agricultural Products in both English and Spanish. This is the Spanish version.

Need a Commercial for Comcast? NBC?

Adam Frey — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 15:51:37 +0000

Shooting commercials for Comcast, NBC and other television outlets can often be complicated when it comes to formats. This can cut into your commercial spot’s airing times, especially when you have a large campaign that needs to air from Tuesday through Friday for a large expo that weekend, and Comcast doesn’t have the proper setup to transfer your commercial spot. This means your commercial spot will not air on-time! But Crimson Chain Productions has been dealing with the format issues from the various stations for years.

It’s a complicated process, especially because many Comcast subsidiary cable stations don’t have setups that are the same as the next. One may want a submission on DVD; another may want a Quicktime file; and yet another may want it on Beta SP or MiniDV. Even more, a salesperson at a particular Comcast office may tell you that they allow a certain format, when they don’t. Most Comcast cable subsidiaries still don’t broadcast in High Definition, so they aren’t setup for High Definition ingests (even in 2010).

Recently (in the Fall of 2009), NBC decided to move all station ingests to a central hub in Georgia. This means that an original commercial format spec, as quoted by the NBC affiliate, may not be what the hub is actually allowing. They are accepting High Definition, but only certain formats.

Crimson Chain Productions knows how to deal with formats. We can walk you through the entire shooting process and create a commercial spot that will air on-time for your advertising campaign.

Interviews To Help Get The Word Out

Here’s a few from a series of interviews that we shot and edited together for the Maryland Ensemble Theatre’s play “Dusty and the big bad world”. They uploaded the interviews to Youtube, as well as posted the links on FaceBook and Twitter, which really helped to get the word out about this play. Needless to say, it greatly helped their marketing campaign:
