Client Testimonial

Chrysalis Dental Centres

Dear Emotion Picture Studios,

We are writing to thank you for your excellent work on our projects, including our corporate information video, and our new television commercials. Both projects were delivered on time, and even better - under budget. Best of all, the response to the video and TV spots has been excellent. We have received numerous compliments on the general quality of the work, and many have commented that they can't believe what was accomplished on such limited budgets.

Your team is by far the best group we have worked with in the business - inspiring, creative and very professional. From concept development to execution, they never fail to keep the client's best interest front and centre. Their ability to multi-task and complete different components of the same project, from filming to editing to animation, with equal levels of quality, is an enormous benefit to the client and the overall process.

It is clear that you have a very special advantage over the competition, and we look forward to working with Emotion again in the near future.

Best regards,

Danny Joseph

Upcoming Event: SEO for the CEO™

Top-level strategies for winning the War of the Web
Tuesday, March 6, 8.30 am. – 12 noon
Theatre Room, Mississauga Living Arts Centre
4141 Living Arts Dr., Mississauga, ON, L5B 4B8

As a senior executive, you need to know about SEO so you can make sound business decisions regarding your company’s internet presence and digital marketing. This seminar will teach you what you need to know to manage this area. The key technology is Search Engine Optimization. When SEO is correctly employed, it puts your company at or near the top of search engine results. This should happen for every keyword or cluster of words about your products and services that people type into a search engine. SEO is the most important tool used to bring potential customers to your website.

SEO is a young science and many firms claiming to perform SEO have only imperfect knowledge. Scott Wilson discovered this the hard way by wasting considerable money on a large SEO company to promote his firm. His team developed SEO strategies, based on scientific research, that truly work. eMotion was so successful with our SEO strategies that we created a new company, eMotion Digital Marketing.  Requests for quotes started coming in from companies around the world. Now eMotion performs digital marketing and digital training services for many Fortune 500 companies.  You too can benefit from Scott’s findings.

Who should attend:  CEOs, Presidents, Vice Presidents Sales and Marketing, CFOs and IT.

Cost:  $190 for one, $99 for each additional person from your company.

Deliverables:  You will learn how to:

• Ensure that your company’s products or services are listed in the top 10 in a Google search, increasing targeted website traffic.
• Keep potential clients on your website for longer periods of time, moving them to the next step in your sales process.
• Distinguish a good SEO investment from a bad one; make educated decisions on SEO based on return on investment within a fiscal time frame.

Takeaways: Booklet on the six secrets of SEO and an instructional SEO CD.

Our Promise: You will achieve an immediate return on your investment in time and money by applying any of the principles of SEO presented in the seminar.

eMotionpicturestudios Goes International! November 2006

“Guten Ta”! eMotionpicturestudios goes international…in Germany. We have been developing our SEO (search engine optimization) for eMotionpicturestudios and it’s really working for us. We’re receiving many requests for our video production services from around the world and throughout North America. SmartHealth, located in Phoenix, Arizona, is a recent example that our SEO is working for us. Kim Sullivan of SmartHealth discovered us online and liked what she saw. eMotionpicturestudios beat out two other U.S. companies getting the job. Based on conversations with eMotion partner Scott Wilson, she felt very confident in contracting our services. First order of business was traveling to Germany to film a new allergen product soon to be released in the U.S. and Canada, manufactured by Brial in Grevin, Germany. Partnering with Brial, SmartHealth required a marketing video in order to introduce this new product to the North American market. We spent four days in historic Munster, Germany and saw lots of great sights. I want to say thanks to the people at Brial for their help and hospitality. I had a great shoot and we look forward to phase 2 of this project, which will be completed at Smarthealth’s head office in Phoenix, Arizona.

Armor Tile Product Information Trade Show Video: October 2006

I have just completed a trade show video for ENG Plastics, manufacturers of Armor Tile detectable warning system products. This trade show video will be shown in Las Vegas, at the World of Concrete trade exhibition in January 2007. Armor Tile representatives will be on-hand to demonstrate their products that can be cast in to concrete at time of pour or surface applied to existing concrete constructs. The trade show video we have produced promotes Armor Tile products, features, benefits and applications. Armor Tile is a detectable warning surface product for curb ramps, pedestrian walkways, rail transportation platforms, and various other installations. Detectable warning systems are a mandatory part of new construction in the United States and Armor Tile’s goal is to be the leader providing products for all detectable warning system construction needs. ENG plastics recognizes that marketing is key to becoming the leader in their industry and has worked closely with eMotionpicturestudios to produce several videos to promote Armor Tile’a corporate vision, sales and customer service capabilities, and product installation support. The trade show video is to be used to capture the attention of an unreached audience generating real interest in Armor Tile products that will lead to sales.

Canadian Tire Video Production: September 7/2006

I have had the opportunity to work with Canadian Tire/CTTV several times in my video production career. CTTV is Canadian Tire’s in-house production services that produce corporate level communications for the corporation. CTTV producer Mark Fremeau hired eMotionPictureStudios to shoot video for a presentation Canadian Tire is producing for their annual dealers conference. Canadian Tire dealers from across Canada attend this conference to recognize their peers in retail achievement and to recognize community service work that Canadian Tire is involved with. I traveled to the East Coast to shoot community service projects involving retail dealers in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia. This video production recognizes Canadian Tire dealers who have contributed financially and through material donations to organizations like shelters for women and treatment centres for cancer patients. To support the valuable services these organizations are providing in their local communities. Mark and I logged over 1000km driving in three days, traveling from New Brunswick, to PEI, and finishing in Halifax Nova Scotia. It was a whirlwind tour of the Maritime provinces! Canadian Tire is a very professional organization, and it was a pleasure to be involved in this project supporting important community service works. Thank you Canadian Tire for trusting me and eMotionPictureStudios to handle the shooting for this video production.

Current Projects August 28/2006

On Monday August 28th I had the honour to film the Mayor of Mississauga, Hazel McCallion. She was first elected Mayor of Mississauga in November, 1978, and is the longest serving Mayor in the city's history.  Hoffmann-La Roche Limited, also known as Roche, one of the world¹s leading health care companies is celebrating a significant anniversary this year and has a Canadian operation in Mississauga.  Freelance producers John Luna and Cheryl Kitts have been hired by Roche to produce a documentary celebrating this significant milestone in business.  John and Cheryl have worked closely with eMotion in the past and contracted me to perform some of the shooting for this documentary.  Mayor of Mississauga, Hazel McCallion, was asked to provide a 'congratulatory sound bite' on video.  She was fantastic.  She was very accommodating, providing us the needed time to set all of our video gear up, then delivered a thoughtful, encouraging, and whimsical message that is sure to boost the celebratory mood at Roche.  It was a real pleasure to meet Mayor Hazel...and to work with John and Cheryl again.

Current Projects August 1-25/2006

eMotion Picture Studios is starting a new project for www.mobile-knowledge.com They produce software for the taxi industry. Our team will be completing two videos, one on the videos will cover features and benefits of the software and a second video will use testimonials to introduce and sell the company. The finished videos will be used on the web and at trade shows to help generate leads. eMotion expects to complete both videos by mid August. Shooting should start in Ottawa early next week.

We are putting the finishing touches on a testimonial video for Apple Canada. Apple hired eMotion for a shoot in back April before the school year ended. Blair went on location at an elementary school and shot some great footage of how apple laptops are being used in the classroom. The administrators, teachers and students were all very enthusiastic about the Apple program. Blair is completing the post production and DVD authoring this week. The process has been really easy for Apple, we mailed them a DVD back in April, the DVD contained all the testimonials with timecode. They just picked the clips they really liked and then emailed us indicating the timecode. From there Blair puts the story together and adds the B-Roll. It’s nice when we are able to off load the work from customers and make there jobs easy.

Last week we completed the shooting phase of a testimonial video for Seradex. We received some incredible customer testimonials. Seradex’s customers are really big fans of the software. We will move into the post production phase of the project next week.
