My name is Doug Wiggins and I’m a video producer. Our production studio, Video Innovations is near Windsor NSW. For many people, Video Producer brings up mental images of a huge hollywood style studio set and film crews worthy of feature films. Not to burst my own bubble, but with todays technology and some carefully honed skills, my operation runs quite nicely with nowhere near all those frills, bells and whistles. Exploring the other pages of this website http://www.film.com.au/ shows most of the services we offer.
Just like Hollywood, most big city production companies still have a seperate department for everything. Of course this makes your project expensive. After a camera crew and director have shot the video, the editing department do their bit on the video. Then the audio department, then the graphics department. It goes on and on. Who has the budget for that?
I do things a little differently at Video Innovations. In the beginning, it was a necessity that I be able to do all those jobs in house. I have never seen any good reason to change that. This means that in one pre-production meeting, I gather all the details of my client’s requirements, and because I will be taking care of every process, I can provide an accurate estimate more quickly. If my client requires still photography in the video production, I do that too. Likewise with any graphic design needed.
If your project does require more crew and equipment, we can take care of that too because of our strategic alliance with other industry professionals.
On any given day, I might be involved in a client meeting, shooting video in the form of a news story, conference, commercial, wedding or even a funeral. I might be on the ground or filming from an aircraft. In the same day, I am likely to be editing the video, audio and even the stills in Photoshop.
Each day is an empty canvas and never boring.
I am a video professional. I use my camera’s to bring pictures to life. I love my work. If you find my line of work interesting, drop me a line in the comments box.
Cheers
Doug
