We’re so happy to announce our very first video for an iPhone app! We were really excited to work on it…we love iPhones and all the apps and we knew it would give us the opportunity to be even MORE creative and bold than usual. iPhone apps are designed for people with iPhones…and people with iPhones are generally labeled “fun!”
So yes…this video is fun. It’s for an app called iSnap.it.
And what is iSnap.it? iSnap.it is the only app that allows you to personalize your photos before you’ve even taken them.
We recently completed a project for Ovational, a site that enables you to create an online tribute to a loved one.
They describe it like this:
An Ovation is a permanent, public, and customized online tribute to a special person who has significantly touched your life. It’s the way to surprise a grandmother, boyfriend, teacher, colleague or even a favorite blogger by telling them — and the world — how much you admire, respect or truly love them and why. When’s the last time you did that?
We expanded their description like this…
It’s like…a personalized e-card that stays online forever. Kinda cool, right? In this day and age…when everything on the interwebs is all about ME ME ME…it was a breath of fresh air to see a site revolving around someone else for a change.
The good news is that they’re running a special introductory promotion allowing you to create your very own Ovation for FREE until December 5, 2010. Give it a try…once the offer ends, they’ll charge a small fee…but nothing beats free!
Go on…applaud your algebra teacher, cheer for your cello tutor, sing praises to your parents, give kudos to your kids and pay homage to your housekeeper! We’ve all got someone to thank…so what are you waiting for?
We had the best time working on our latest portfolio addition…Coachya. They offer an online application to help endurance coaches manage their teams and athletes. We had the opportunity to get really creative with imagery and try some different techniques with the screen shots and screen captures.
What do you think?
Pretty cool, eh? Does it make you want to train for a marathon now? ;)
Another one of our favorite portfolio highlights is the clip we did for a company called FunPix. It’s a portable photobooth service for parties and tradeshows…really cute idea and a ton of creative imagery possibilities.
One of our very first videos was for a company called fring. It’s a classic example of the RapidFire Video philosophy and one of our all-time favorite clips. When new potential clients contact us, *most* of them mention how much they love “the fring one.” Yeah…it’s just that good.
See for yourself…
It’s fun…funky…a little quirky…and 100% RapidFire Video.
How much do you LOVE the “friends in your pocket” image around 00:30?
It’s exactly what you need to see to pique your interest so you’ll want to know more…all wrapped up in a one minute and twenty second, informative and entertaining clip.
I know we posted a portfolio video yesterday…and we try and spread ‘em out for you…but we’re just so excited about this one that we had to share it TODAY!
A while back…we created an introduction video for an extremely important organization called Gift of Life, an international bone marrow registry with more than 170,000 potential donors already in their database. The original video can be viewed here.
And this week…we produced another video for them! Their founder, Jay Feinberg, is up against other amazing Jewish community heroes….competing for a generous $25,000 donation. If Gift of Life gets the most votes…the money will help cover the cost of adding hundreds more potential donors to their database…expanding the opportunity for them to match bone marrow donors and recipients.
Once you’ve watched the video…please take a moment and vote here for this very worthy cause. Do it for yourself. Do it for the community…
Do it for Jay’s mom! She’ll be so proud :)
Good luck, Jay and Gift of Life! We’re so honored to be a part of this endeavor.
Our latest portfolio addition is a project we completed for dealigee — an online marketplace to buy and resell GroupOn, LivingSocial, Tippr, DealOn vouchers and more.
We enjoyed this project because it took us back to our roots…a classic example of what RapidFire Video is all about — it’s concise, engaging, upbeat, and fun…with a dash of humor to keep you on your toes…
We're the team behind RapidFire, and we help make your product into a story. That may be through a RapidFire video or other marketing tools.
This is where we get to rant and rave about great examples of online video, what we've been up to, and of course, entertainingly terrible examples of online video.
