8 Apps to That Will Make Your iPhone and iPad Videos Look Professional

(Disclaimer: We think that taking photos and video with an iPad looks silly, though we do use an iPad for a video production monitor.)

While many of the iOS apps covered in this article do “double duty,” these iPad and iPhone apps generally excel in just one or two primary functions:

Apps that improve the built-in video camera and add in-camera effects
Editing captured video footage
Creating videos from pictures saved to your iPhone or iPad
Adding Video effects and enhancements to edited video
Apps for adding music to your videos
Social sharing apps for mobile video

The Best No-Bullshit Bounty Hunter Job Description You Will EVER Read

The Best No-Bullshit Bounty Hunter Job Description You Will EVER Read

I did not write the following bounty hunter job description, I wish like hell I could remember who did… I do remember that I copied it from a Facebook post several months ago intending to publish it with the author’s blessing. If you wrote it, please let me know and I’ll gladly give you full credit for what arguably had me laughing so hard I was crying and barely able to breathe.

You, sir, are a fucking genius.

How to Promote Your Freelance Service Business Website

You've slogged through the many design and technical challenges of building a website and finally managed to publish it to the World Wide Web. You have a solid website that answers a potential customer's questions and overcomes initial objections and, most importantly, compels them to take action:

Call
Email
Fill out a contact form
Buy a product
Whatever.

Your website visitors should always be told what you expect them to do and given instructions about what to do next.

Its not enough to optimize your site for search. You have to optimize your site for action.

Next, you've written your first super-helpful blog article (something that solves a problem or educates your customers), chosen a catchy image, maybe even made an introductory or explainer video and posted it to the Interwebs.

Quite frankly, getting your website up and posting your first article is the easy part; now, you've got to use that tool to ATTRACT the clients you want. You have to build traffic to your website and you will always have to continue to create compelling content.

There's a fine line between driving traffic to your website and driving people crazy if you market your content incorrectly or too aggressively. Make no mistake, there is also a difference between being helpful by sharing your content and being spammy by foisting it upon them.

So, what can you do to get your blog noticed and help it find a bigger audience?

Here are 10 ways you can promote your freelance services and business website...

What Type of Microphone is Best for My Video Production?

Recording crystal clear, quality sound is essential to any good film or video production – especially when your client’s reputation or appearance is at stake. Sound is one of the most important parts of film production, maybe even more so than the picture. Think about how many times you’ve watched something with a good picture but terrible sound and turned it off. In order to get the best sound quality for your production, you will need to first understand the different types of microphones out there and the basics of how they work.

Inside you will find a short summary and an excellent video from FilmmakerIQ.com  about the types of microphones that are available, how each works and which will best suit your specific needs.

Using Adobe Voice to Make Animated Explainer Videos is Easy


Using Adobe Voice to Make Animated Explainer Videos is Easy

http://vtrep.com/using-adobe-voice-make-explainer-videos/

I’ve been using Adobe Voice for a few months now to make videos quickly and with zero overhead expense. I recently made this light-hearted video using the app:

The Real Value of Money in Government Stimulus Spending

My only real gripe is that Adobe gives you no easy way to download or keep your own video. In order to get this video onto my YouTube channel, I had to screencapture it first (I use ScreenFlow) render, then upload the video.
