How do you want people to feel?  That is the key to good video.

People rarely make decisions based on knowledge. People make decisions based on feeling. The limbic system in our brain is responsible for all of our feelings. It’s where trust and loyalty are grown. It has no capacity for language or reasoning. But it's the part of the brain where decisions are made!

So for all of us marketers, it’s not enough to impart knowledge to our audience. We have to impart feeling. People make decisions because they see something... that makes them feel something... that then gives them the fuel to change.

That is why video is such an important part of any marketing strategy. Video is the most effective way to get your audience to feel something, which then drives them to act.

Hyndsight Productions specializes in understanding your message and getting your audience to feel something. Anyone can create a video for you. But it’s the art of crafting a story, the art of stirring emotion that makes video so effective.

And it's what Hyndsight Productions does best.
