I consider this announcement as something huge in Online Marketing and every single online marketer should consider to actively produce videos in 2009 or they won’t do their job. It’s a no brainer investment…

1. Diffusing videos on the web has become a commodity through platforms like Youtube, Dailymotion, Seesmic, Mogulus (live)…
2. Demand for Professional videos/content is booming : corporate videos, informative videos, educational videos, PR videos, Marketing videos, Buzz videos… Every single company will need to produce at least one video for their own website.
3. Producing videos has clearly not yet become a commodity. THAT IS THE MISSING POINT IN THE ONLINE VIDEO BOOM

So here’s the customer pain we’re trying to figure out even if it’s not express because not already offered on the market.

Why are Videos still complicated and expensive to produce?

The video production market is over crowded, there’s no transparency about pricing/quality and, at the end, the costs are really high (Traditional production companies charge you for their inefficiency + margin on a freelance / Agencies charge you for their creativity on top of production companies…).

Those who need to produce videos need fast and reliable information about hiring the best profiles to produce their content at best cost.

On Youtube, Veoh and all these platforms, how do you find the good ones?

Imagine how great it would be to find a reliable filmmaker to get footage abroad without spending tons of money sending someone over. Imagine how amazing it would be to find the perfect creative guys to produce a viral video ad from their past experience. Imagine you’re a baker and want to find all the videographers in your area and, more specifically, the ones who create videos for bakeries…

At Videoagency we are clearly convinced that the video product market needs more transparency to help the online video production market explode in the coming years.

Commoditizing the video production market by creating transparency is our Vision. So that’s why we’re creating the biggest filmmaker network in the World with currently 4000+ filmmakers in 80 countries and more than 2000 cities and counting.

We want to become a central point between the ones who need to produce videos and the ones who produce videos.

I would love to get feedback from you about this?

In meantime we pursue our goal : Make video production a commodity. I really trust that diffuse is already a commodity but produce is still hard (who ? background ? pricing?)… So Videoagency will achieve his goal : Make video production a commodity.
Jimmy is now our unique developer but this guy really rocks and he is impressive about maturity and volunteer. Only 22 years old but so determined. Obviously we also rely on free lance we love to work with to boost development.

Flavio is always on top, efficient, productive and positive.

It’s so powerful to be a small and strong team.

We’ll soon have 4 000 filmmakers in our filmmaker network in over 1 800 cities worldwide. Impressive ? No, it’s just a beginning. We are really looking for people with talent and passion everywhere. The ones who show you the world with fresh and creative eyes.

In my next posts I will talk more and more about and to filmmakers.

At Videoagency the real stars at the end are the ones who produce, the ones with a camera…
