What We Do...
VIDEO PRODUCTION - Movie making with a purpose.

       At MAKING HISTORY our production experience includes video and film for commercial television and for a wide range of non broadcast applications.  Today we offer field and studio production on SONY BetaCamSP and digital DVCAM equipment.  We edit on a variety of systems including SONY BetaCam A/B roll tape, and non-linear computer based systems from Avid, Media 100, Apple Final Cut Pro and Ulead Media Studio Pro.  All editing systems meet professional broadcast standards.  We'll plan your production, research and write the script, edit the video and assist in distribution.  It's all part of the service.
ON-SITE EDITING - Ultimate option for busy clients. 
        At MAKING HISTORY we're dedicated to customer service and to making the production process as convenient as possible for our clients.  To that end we have perfected the concept of "on-site editing."  Give us a small office, conference room, even a corner in a storeroom and we'll be editing your project within 30 minutes of arrival.  We pre produce graphic elements and titles to further accelerate the process.  You'll be available to stop in, review progress, make suggestions and decisions while still attending to your main business responsibilities.  Best of all, there is no extra charge for our on-site editing services.  On-site editing is perfect for retreats, team building workshops, sports, and other events where you want video shot, edited and displayed on the same day.
AUDIO PRODUCTION - Sound makes all the difference.
        Our Years of commercial radio experience in production, programming and management insure that MAKING HISTORY can produce your audio presentation for tape and CD distribution, Internet streaming media, commercials, or film and video sound track to your high standards, efficiently and affordably.  WE offer tape, CD and computer based mastering on professional, multi-channel software production systems including DigiDesign ProTools by Avid.
NARRATION - The right voice, the right face to tell the story. 

       MAKING HISTORY can provide professional, experienced talent for on-camera and voice over presentations.  We are also affiliated with many other talented performers with national commercial announcer experience.  Voice narrations can be delivered to you as attached .wav files via email, Real Audio format, on CD-ROM, audio CD, professional cassette, reel-to-reel or DAT.  Click here to request a narration voice demo tape or CD.

STREAMING MEDIA - Movies and sound on the Internet.
        Many believe the real future of the Internet lies in streaming media, on-demand video and audio presented over the web and accessed via computer or various other "devices," coupling the convenience of television with the interactive capabilities of computers. Click here to see a Streaming Video sample of a recent production. 

       MAKING HISTORY has been working in this fledgling technology almost from its inception.  We can convert your video, audio or slide presentation into a web friendly format so anyone in the world with Internet service can access it at will.  Many factors affect quality of streaming presentations, including the quality of the original production, connection speeds, network congestion and the type of equipment people are using to access your presentation.  But even with these limitations, the selective use of streaming video and audio can be a significant enhancement to your web presence.

       MAKING HISTORY will convert your video, audio or slide (including Power Point) presentation to a universally used streaming format - Real Media, Quick Time, Windows Media or all three, place it on our optimized server and show you how to link to it from your web site.  We'll even create a custom designed launch page, if you prefer.  From a 30 second audio greeting to a half-hour keynote address video, we can put it on the web at an affordable price.
VIDEO NEWS RELEASES - Getting on the nightly news.
       Network and local television news operations are using more "hand-out" video than ever before.  This is footage, with scripts, provided by companies, organizations and government agencies, with hopes it will be used on the TV news.  NASA, Sea World, the Defense Department, Boeing and many others regularly distribute these Video News Releases (VNR's) with great success.  They are especially useful for product launches, medical and pharmaceutical announcements, entertainment and sports event advancers, and corporate media relations.
