Video is the most engaging way to share knowledge and communicate digitally. Here are 8 reasons why you should use the video platform, Veedmee.

Video enhances communication, in both personal and business contexts. For that reason, here’s a list of 8 reasons why you should use the video platform, Veedmee.

1) 1 minute of video is worth 1.8 million words

Video has the ability to transmit a large amount of information in a short period of time. A research conducted by Dr. James McQuivey of Forrester Research Inc., discovered that one minute of video equals 1.8 million words. 

2) Executives are video fans

Three-quarters (75%) of executives surveyed by Forbes said they watch work-related videos on business-related websites at least weekly.

3) Multifunction format

The video format can be shared on your website, through social media or on other online channels, such as Youtube. Videos can also be used in presentations and offline environments, such as e-mail marketing campaigns or waiting rooms. 

4) Video creates a strong, emotional bond with consumers

Video is the most engaging and interactive form of communication. Video offers emotional impact that no other medium can match and creates a personal connection with your audience.

5) Attention to the receiver

Video is the best format to grab the attention of the receiver. People are far more receptive to video than to another text e-mail.

6) Visual information

90% of information transmitted to the brain is visual and 40% of all nerve fibres connected to the brain are linked to the retina.

7) Quick acquisition

Visuals are processed 60,000X faster in the brain than text. Video helps clients turn information into knowledge faster.

8) 66% of the world’s data will be video

There is an interesting prediction that two-thirds of the world’s data will be video by 2017, which once again corroborates the idea that video is growing at a fast pace and that the trend has come to stay.

In the past couple of years, advertising has evolved at a tremendous rate. Here are 3 viral videos of 3 different decades.

Truth is Advertising has evolved at a rapid rate over the past few decades and much more since the appearance of Internet that has lead to new ways of communication.

In 2014, for instance, millions of dollars were spent in visual advertising. The use of video for businesses is not just a good idea, it’s becoming a must have for any business.

Today, with the power of the Internet and mobile technology, it is easier than ever before to make a video that appeals to everyone.

But in the good old days, brands and marketers had to catch the consumers’ attention exclusively through TV commercials.

Here are three TV commercials that got the attention of many fans, in three different decades: 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.

1) Very creepy doll commercial from the 60’s

This bizarre ad for kids, grabbed the attention of many consumers at the time being.  Thankfully, advertising has evolved a lot since then.

2) 1970 Dodge Charger 500 (vintage 70’s)

The Dodge Charger is one of the most storied American cars still on the market today. With its iconic design, the Dodge Charger became a legend as soon as it hit the street.

This ad tries to persuade consumers to think that buying this product enables them to raise their status in society.

3) 80’s Burger King Commercial

In the early 80’s Burger King was trying to keep sales growing so they had to keep changing their advertising. The fast food chain launched a provocative ad that challenged consumers to try their Burger King croissandwich.

Music videos have become an important marketing tool in recent years. Take a look at some of the most emblematic video clips of last year.

Video clips make the world – and the workplace – go round!

Everyone loves watching and listening to a good video clip, when you go through a tough day of work, a crisis or a difficult personal situation, they are right there with you helping you stay positive.

Video clips are great, especially during emotional times, because the lyrics to the songs usually let you know you’re not alone. That everyone, at some point or another, has “been there, through that”, which is both comforting and cheering at the same time.

As stated by the internationally acclaimed music magazine, Rolling Stone, music videos have become “increasingly prominent, not just on YouTube (where the most popular entry on our list has nearly 400 million views) and television (where a handful of networks keep them in rotation) but in the world at large, integrated into advertisements, social media and live events.”

Here’s a short-list of some of the best video-clips that have been released recently:

1) Sia, “Chandelier” – Directed by Sia and Daniel Askill – A mesmerizing video clip where each movement is repeated until it exaggerated, grotesque and threatening. What stands out? The choreography.

2) DJ Snake feat Lil Jon, “Turn Down for What” – Directed by Daniels – An outstandingly original video clip where the twerking, daggering and a Brazilian dance called “surra de bunda”, make everyone want to move.

3) Beyoncé, “Pretty Hurts” – Directed by Melina Matsoukas – An incredibly creative video clip is a sort of documentary in a video album of fantasy, the video displays of Beyoncé’s most appreciated gifts: “her ability to mine the deeply personal for mass appeal”.
