More University Success

Posted by Admin at 10:48 pm

One year after our first commission, LookoutMedia has completed it’s 10th video for the University of Southampton. Our latest production was for the Faculty of Health Sciences promoting its pioneering work designing technologies to improve arm and hand function.

This was a complex story that required many script re-writes and a tight shooting schedule to get it all filmed in one day using a Video Journalist. The result was shown at a major education conference and is also featuring on the department’s website.

One Million Viewers Make Client Very Happy!

Why spend tens of thousand of pounds on TV and Radio advertising when a well thought out promotional campaign can do the job for you with much more credibility and at a fraction of the cost?

On the 27th of September a combined audience of more than one million people on BBC South, ITV Meridian and BBC Radio Solent viewed/listened to our news item about Southampton’s Spire Hospital. The commission was for a Feature Video and Broadcast News Clip Reel to promote a new technique to repair damaged knee cartilage.

The resulting widespread coverage of the story was due to our extensive contacts within the BBC and ITV.

LookoutMedia has just completed five videos for av8jet – a multi-million pound company that specialises in the acquisition, management and sale of high end corporate jets.

This has been a long-term project where each video promotes a different aspect of the business: About Us, Consult, Acquire, Manage, and Sell.

The client was very ‘hands on’ and is delighted with the HD results which will feature on his website and on presentation DVDs.

We’re now in the process of producing Presenter-led sales films for the company and have recently completed filming on location at Cannes in the south of France.

Following the success of the corporate video we recently produced for Bennington Green, the company asked us to record its refurbishment of the Grove Hotel in Bournemouth for their clients Macmillan Caring Locally.

Part of the brief was also to produce a short video for Macmillan tracking the progress of the refurbishment of the hotel from acquisition to opening.

The hotel is now offering holiday accommodation for people with terminal illness. The video highlighting the part Bennington Green played in the project is now on their website.

LookoutMedia has produced a promotional video for the Maricuda Atlantic Challenge – a new attempt to break the record for the fastest sea crossing of the Atlantic Ocean.

The video comes four months after we first started working with the Maricuda team and it will play a significant part in raising interest and sponsorship for the project which promises to be one of the maritime and media highlights of 2013.

Last month we also helped launch the Challenge with a press release which resulted in a significant number of TV and Radio interviews in the National and local media.

Bennington Green is delighted with it’s new video produced by LookoutMedia. The fast-growing building surveying and design company wanted a film to feature on it’s new website.

The brief was simple – ‘put a human face on our services’. We’re now working on a second video with the aim of showing benningtongreen’s clients how the firm can manage their projects – a sort of ‘before, during and after’ case study.

LookoutMedia has just completed 9 videos for Southampton University.

The commission, for the School of Humanities, was to cover an Alumni event where 8 speakers gave presentations to current students about how their Humanities degree had helped their careers.

The ninth video was a 2 minute promotion including the talks and the social event that followed. The videos are for use on the School of Humanities website.

LookoutMedia is now working on a series of promotional videos for the Communications and Marketing department at the university.

What We Did On Our Holidays

It’s not all work and no play here at LookoutMedia! Take a look at a video we filmed over the summer holidays and have just recently shown at Christchurch Sailing Club. We think fans of cult 60s and 70s TV themes will love it.

Southampton University Testimonial Video

Posted by Admin at 12:39 pm

LookoutMedia has produced it’s first video for Southampton University. The commission, for Student Services, was for a two to three minute video featuring testimonials from last years student placement programme.

The aim was to encourage students to get involved in the programme for 2010-11 and the video will be shown on various websites and be used in presentations. A clip-reel of all the interviews was also provided for future projects.

This was a low-key start to the University contract where creative input was limited due to time and budget constraints. However, we have also been commissioned to produce two videos for the Faculty of Humanities to be delivered in November.
