Alastair Cartwright of Enhance Media has recently talked about their Online Employment Video offering.
They have partnered with a US video production company to "help employers breath life into their employment messages and recruitment marketing plans with short recruitment videos and targeted distribution campaigns".
Apparently the cost to create and host a 3 minute video (plus three x 45 second interviews) is less than £7,500 and it takes around four weeks from commission to production.
I think that employer video's will become a very mainstream way of attracting and selling to candidates over the next few years. With video CVs, and the controversy around them, naturally following.
What is really great about the Enhance Media offering is that they have created their own employment video so you can see the sort of video you can create. Despite all the "trendy" wonky camera work and "funky" background music I really like it. I especially like the fact that it looks like Tim's had his hair professionally styled for the vid!
I'll be sure to pass your compliments on to my stylist - he toiled for hours to acheive that look ;-)

I noted the cost of 7500 GBP which is really high. We produce work for companies like Xerox, RSA, AVG, SMC and more but never hit these prices. Why? Because we are trying to make video affordable. Give us a call...
