I just don’t get it. I know that our blackberries, iPhones and smart phones encroach upon our personal lives. People use their mobile devices anywhere and everywhere they go. It is not uncommon to see a man standing at the urinal holding his Blackberry checking his e-mail. (Yes, I have seen this.)

An exciting presentation at Great Legal Marketing superconference in Virginia
I was speaking to over 250 attorneys on June 11, 2010 at the Hyatt in Fairfax, Virginia. The room was packed. Ben Glass had just finished talking about ethics in attorney advertising. 5:00 pm arrived and I had my wireless microphone all set; my laptop was ready to go and my wireless pointer was plugged in.

Video Marketing for Lawyers-The ABC’s
PRODUCTION
This is it. The video shoot. A team of people come in and take over your office. They’re setting up lighting, setting up their video camera, plugging in electrical devices, setting up sound equipment and microphones.

The camera then adjusts all other colors accordingly. If you do not set your white balance, I guarantee your video will come out dark and the results will be poor.

Are You Being Judged by the Size of Your Equipment?
Today’s blog post is about VIDEO equipment. Notice the double entendre in the title?
Most people think that in order to create good looking video, you must have a “professional” video camera that costs over $5,000 and looks like it came from a video production studio. That type of thinking is so wrong, on so many different levels. But it’s a typical expectation.
