How Web Video Production Can Help Your Business

Web video production has become increasingly popular as embedding technologies and broadband internet speed gets ever better. Where your business or site warrants it, using an online web presenter can help get your message across – in tutorials and product guides, for example. And where a virtual tour is required, the web video really comes into its own.

The bottom line is, the Internet is now ready and able to support genuine multimedia presences for your company and your company website. In an age of file sharing and self broadcast, your customers and site users expect to see you making the best use of the technology at your disposal. Web video production allows you to make use of video files where they are the most appropriate way to get your message across.

In line with all website optimisation protocols, you should use a web video where a video file or moving image is genuinely the optimum way to deliver your information. Ask yourself the following question, of every part of your website: could it be understood better using another method? If the answer to that question is “no”, then a web video production can simplify your site and make its user experience much better.

Video works excellently for site guides, product descriptions and demonstrations of the services you provide. In many cases it is much easier to show a potential customer or service user something you do, in action, rather than trying to explain it with words and still images. Also, your web video satisfies the strongest of all customer urges – which is to see something they are about to buy, “in the flesh”.

The web video production on your site is ideal for making your site feel more interactive and as long as you have the rest of the page properly optimised the inclusion of a video file won’t confuse search engines. Unlike Flash menus, which look funky and do all kinds of flashy things when you scroll over them, but which prevent search engines from seeing the navigational structure of your site correctly, an embedded file can be optimised properly, even to the extent of directory submission.

The ultimate strength of the web video is in its ability to demonstrate the use and enjoyment of a product. One of the major objections to web shopping has always been the lack of knowledge about what exactly you are going to get. A photograph of an item you have never seen before never does it the same justice as a video showing you what it is and how it works.

Your web video production can bring your site to life, bring your products to life, and get your information across more clearly. Used properly, it makes your site user’s experience better.

YouTube and Google Video are two of the popular websites for video sharing, but there are also a slew of other sites where users can upload videos they create or videos they want to share, such as Metacafe and DailyMotion. Now, how do you go about adding music to the videos you upload to these sites? Read on to learn how you can do this in just several simple steps.

There is a plethora of software out there that can be used to add music to videos, such as Adobe Premiere and Final Cut Pro. But of course, not all users can afford to purchase programs like these, especially as they are geared more toward the professional user. But the regular or casual user need not despair! The good news is that there is a very useful tool that comes free with Windows, with no additional software purchases needed. Windows Movie Maker is a simple video editing application that is installed by default on Windows machines. This tool makes adding music and editing videos a breeze. Just run it and you're good to go!

So how exactly do you add music to a video clip? It's actually pretty simple. Here's a guide to help you get started with adding music to your videos.

Run Windows Movie Maker, and open a new project.
Click File, and then Import into Collections (alternatively, just press "Ctrl+I") to import the media files (videos, music, images).
Once the files are imported, you simply drag them onto the timeline utilized by Movie Maker (at the bottom part of the window).


Using the timeline, users can conveniently add visual effects (such as fade-in effects) to the video, which is located on the "Video" bar.
To add music to the current video, simple drag the appropriate music file to the "Audio/Music" bar. Using the timeline allows the user to adjust when the music will start, or synchronize it with video. You can also set the music fade in or fade out, in addition to setting volume levels (in case you want it to play more in the background)
Users also have the option to add narration to the video, if they have a microphone connected to their system.
Once the music has been added, you simply save the project (usually as a new video file) in the format of your choosing.


YouTube works with a lot of video formats, and some of the most common are .AVI files (which might be the same file type as your source video), although YouTube allows users to upload other popular video file types, such as .WMV, .MOV, MPEG, .MP4, DivX, .FLV, and .OGG files.

Once you have saved the project, you are now ready to upload your new video, with your own choice of music, to the video sharing site of your choice!

Adding music to your YouTube videos and videos for other sites is actually a whole lot simpler than you used to think. With a simple and easy-to-use tool, any Windows user can easily add music to their videos.
