Their argument is that people will sit up and listen if they are being entertained and smiling. That’s the job of this video, as with any training video – to deliver your message and ensure it sinks in.

Lessons for all here.

From initial concepts, scripting right through to post production and providing your very own course membership site for internal or external use.

We’ve had plenty of experience of delivering the right results for clients over the last few years – whether it be

• training video production for your internal teams – streamed from our servers or yours…
• training video production for your customers – giving them best practice use of your software perhaps…
• training video production for you to sell to the public online – taking your IPR and getting it online in the right format…

We’ve done it all – get in touch to find out more.

The chances are you’ve taken hours, days or even weeks to prepare a seminar or conference. There might be a dozen speakers, there might be 100 people in the audience. Don’t lose sight of the fact there could be 10,000 people around the world who would benefit from seeing this content.

Sure film it, put it on DVD and send it the attendees. That’s one way. But guess what, it will never get looked out.

The 8.45 Club way is a better one. We’ll film it for you, break it into bite-sized chunks and put it online for your attendees to see it again, at their pace. We can then sell it to a global audience, piece by piece, or in its entirety. We call it sweating the asset. You might call it money for nothing…

Here’s a case study for you.

The approach

• We travelled to Manchester and Melbourne believe it or not to film Ed Dale’s Coming Home seminars.
• We broke it up on paper.
• We then wrote intro and outro scripts for 11 modules (ideally we’d do this in advance!).
• We then took the presenter onto the green screen and recorded the introductions and endings…
• Post production then completed the 11 module course, which is now a highly valued asset.
• 7’57″ the outro

The benefits:

• The valuable content is not just presented once and lost forever – it is captured.
• This content is not then supplied as a 2 hour thick wadge of ‘stuff’ which realistically is going to overwhelm most people… it is provided in digestible, bite-sized chunks.
• It turns such a seminar into a saleable asset.

Click the icon above to view the first module. Note that the introduction to this first module is twice as long as the rest of the modules, as Ed sets the scene for the whole course first…

Once it’s loaded, you can skip to the start of the seminar session at 1’15?. You’ll then see how we handle slideware and video on screen.

The outro appears about 30 seconds before the end of the movie.

What I am used to having is someone talking at me for half an hour. By the time you come to actually USE the thing you have forgotten everything and lost any bit of paper you wrote on or were given. This is the right way to learn!

Face to face training is a start – but often users need help after the initial introduction. We do it for Microsoft software – we can do it for yours!

RM is a London Stock Exchange listed IT provider in the Education sector. They came to us because they realised it would not be cost-effective or in teachers’ best interests to deliver one session of face to face training on their new Microsoft Office 2007 suite. We came up with a better way.

We produced a fully searchable. members only, video module course on Microsoft Office 2007, specifically designed for teachers. We brought in teacher training experts and devised several paths a user might want to take – “only got 15 minutes?”, “only need the essentials?” etc.

We scripted and produced 42 modules and nearly 5 hours of high quality teacher specific content talking through worked examples a teacher would come across during their working day.

You can see an example module by clicking play above.

• ICT Training should be a blend of face to face training and online video.
• ICT Training should teach people what they need to know, when they need to know it.
• ICT Training should get to the point and give practical, real life examples.

When you sit down to do something, you can go back and watch the video at a time to suit you… when you have actually done it yourself you will probably remember next time.

Like the look of our video work? That’s because most of it is filmed on screen screen, which means you can make it look pretty cool…

We’ve travelled to Sydney, Melbourne and New York with our suitcases before now. A green screen can enable you to superimpose any background you wish – and we’ve created quite a few in the last few years. It means for a fraction of the price of hiring a studio with a lighting engineer, sound man and camera crew you can get some amazing results.

• Green screen video looks highly professional
• Green screen video can be produced to suit your budget
• Green screen video can be produced wherever you are

There are examples of green screen videos all over the site. So take a look around!

Training video production is all well and good, but unless you have the membership site to go with it, your users will never be able to see your content!

We’ve spent the last few years perfecting the art of the membership site. A membership site is a place where your content can sit – where videos can stream, where modules can be released, where downloads and other introductions can be given. It should also be a place where users can search for the right information and where they can share information with other members.

In addition – you might be a subject matter expert or professional speaker – you might wish to sell your content online to an external audience – and so you need a payment mechanism, you might need to give coupon codes to trusted clients, you might want to charge a rolling monthly fee.

Anything’s possible.

• Membership site production caters for internal only audiences with secure logins. We can set one up for you without the need to bother your IT department – which we think you’ll find advantageous for many reasons.
• Membership site production caters for your customers and suppliers in an extranet format where you don’t want to give access to the general public.
• Membership site production also allows you to charge your users for access to your content.

The 8.45 Club suite of membership software does it all.
