Legal Video
Juries and decision makers are bombarded each and every day with an inordinate
amount of audial and visual stimuli. They have come to expect it. So deliver it.
93% of communication is non-verbal.
Why leave all of that behind at an interview, deposition, or site?
Memories are faulty, the court reporters transcript is a great source of information, but it lacks context, and pictures/video is worth 1000+ words.
Legal video helps capture that human element, the context that gives the words different meanings.
Here’s an example. Read this phrase and put emphasis on each word separately to see how the meaning changes: I didn’t say you stole my car.
It’s a good fact on paper, but it could have seven different meanings based on the emphasis that the witness places on each word.
Without legal video, you lose context. Is it really worth the risk to not have it?
100% Digital Workflow.
Have you ever played telephone? Most attorneys have nightmares about situations like that. A lot of legal videographers use technology that acts much the same way. Multiple devices, lots of cables, matrix switches, computers, DVD recorders, on and on and on. There is a lot of potential for degradation of quality.
Now, think about the crisp, clear contracts that help people sleep securely at night. Everything is written down and clearly communicated no matter how many copies you print. That’s how Opveon’s post-production process works.
Our legal video gets recorded directly onto an SD card – similar to the one you have in your digital camera, but professional quality – then they get transferred directly to a computer and converted to the correct final video format. No cables, no separate devices, no weak links in the chain. Our video never hits the air. It is 100% digital.
Garbage In. Garbage Out.
We shoot all of our legal video in high-definition, because every step of our workflow is affected by the quality of the source material.
It’s just like making copies of documents. Having the original and making a copy from it is so much better than a copy of a copy of a faxed copy of the original.
Don’t settle for good-enough. It’s hard to make bad video better, but it is easy to keep good video good.
Future Proof.
We shoot all of our legal video in HD for another reason: we want to future proof your case.
Right now, litigation presentation technology isn’t quite advanced enough to handle high-definition video.
But trial might not happen for many more years, and by that time, HD playback might be possible.
Opveon will be ready with your legal video archived in HD.
