As a professional Video Producer, I have created hundreds of DVDs, web video ads, video commercials and corporate videos over the years, and on this site I will share with you all my 'insider' trade secrets, video tips and techniques, recommended equipment and software and lots more.

I will explain everything about how to make a web video in plain English using plenty of video tutorials, so even a complete newbie to video production will be able to make a start and join the online video revolution.

My goal here is a simple one. I aim to provide you with free, easy-to-follow articles and video tutorials that will help you create better looking (and sounding) video and DVDs.

You will find everything you need here from choosing a camcorder and buying a camcorder, shooting and video lighting techniques, learning how to add video to your website, video hosting and how to make a DVD you can sell for a 2000% profit! (2000%! Not a misprint).

So why is creating web video so important?

Here's some facts from independent industry watchdog, eMarketer, that clearly show why you need to be getting serious about using web video on your website;

• 52% of all web traffic is video - 60% on mobile devices - expected to be 90% in 3 years



• 72% of online surfers watch at least one video on the Internet every week (65% of the viewers are between 35 and 64 and earn middle to high incomes)



• The average YouTube visitor spends 27 minutes watching video per day



• Because video is so popular, video links and clips often show up before other content on search engine results.



• Over 50% of viewers will take action after watching a video advertisement. 12% of those will make a purchase (Compared to 1% reading traditional text advertising copy)



• 65% of viewers will watch a video ad to the end (Compared to less than 20% who finish an online sales page)

You will be left behind if you don't use video on your website today, so don't you think it's time you got serious about web video?

And what about learning how to make a DVD with an interactive menu, just like the one's you rent from Blockbuster? Surely, that's only for the likes of big Hollywood production companies?

Maybe a few years back that was the case, but not any more. Low cost digital high definition camcorders and high-powered computers running fully featured video editing software means you can now easily produce high quality videos and DVDs without the $100,000+ price tag it would have cost you only a few years ago.

Making your own DVDs for your website niche is easier than ever, and you are going to love the BIG profits you can make selling them ;-)

I'll show you how to get cheap DVD duplication, printed, wrapped and shipped to anywhere in the World from just ONE dollar...with no minimum order! - And when you consider the average sale price for a How-To DVD is $40, you can how profitable this business can be :-)
