The Future… is Video on the Web

Kelpie Films has been accepted on to the prestigious Eurodocs Workshop which runs throughout 2008 across Europe, and will allow Douglas Neilson and Stephen Anderson to work closely in developing their latest documentary project under the mentorship of some of the best commisioning editors from Europes top Broadcasters

Now that we have settled into our new office in The Mansion House, Greenock, we thought it was time we gave a little back. As of Oct 2007 all our projects have been Carbon Neutral. To offset the footprint created by one of our productions we will donate the equivalent in trees to the Woodland Trust here in the UK.

What’s more we’ve made it even easier to call us to commision one of those Carbon Neutral Projects with our new Freephone number. 0800 840 2815. We look forward to speaking to you.

“The DVD has been well recieved by both operatives and senior members of staff and we wish to use this style and quality of induction presentation on future projects of this size.”

Russel Rennie, Director, Balfour Beatty Civil Engineering

“The DVD’s really save time, bring a consistant level of training and improve staff awareness of safety”

Norman Stevenson, Member of the Board of Governors International Institute of Risk and Safety Managers

“We wanted a site specific Health and Safety DVD that could be regularly updated as the site developed to show to our staff, our operatives, and to any of our visitors. An induction DVD which suitably reflected how seriously we take the issue of safety on site.With Kelpie Media, that’s exactly what we got.”

George Mackie, Managing Director, Robertson Construction Central

Kelpie Media will be filming the Palestinian International Business Forum in Stockholm on the 14th and 15th of May. The conference will bring together leading businessmen and woman from all over the world to discuss potential opportunities for joint ventures within Israel and Palestine. Kelpie Media will be there to record the events as they unfold and interview the key players.

Robertson Construction has commissioned Kelpie Media to produce a series of Induction DVD’s for their seven school sites across Dundee. The work will include a site specific film for their flagship Grove Academy site as well as six other films for their Dundee primary schools projects. This DVD continues the relationship between Robertson’s and Kelpie which began with their £50 million Gartnavel Hospital project.

Kelpie Media continue their relationship with web developers Alchemedia on new web video project

Kelpie have just completed the first of a number of planned Golf instructional based DVD’s for a St Andrews Based training company. The training video featured tutorials from a PGA professional is to be distributed over the web in the US and UK.

In January of 2008, Managing Director, Stephen Anderson announced that Kelpie Media would provide Pro Bono Media services for one lucky Voluntary Sector or Academic Client each financial quarter.
The Application Process is simple. Just email your proposal to probono@kelpiemedia.com and at the end of the quarter a project will be chosen, to be completed within the subsequent 3 months.
One thing to keep in mind is whether or not the project is time specific as, for example, if a project is submitted on the 1st day of a new quarter it will not go into production until 3 months later if chosen. A small price to pay for a free webvideo, conference film, CEO interview…..

Kelpie Media have launched a new blog, to communicate not only their latest news about, corporate video and commercials to clients old and new, but also to, over the coming months, discuss all that’s new and interesting in the world of video for the web. If you haven’t heard (or read the title of this blog) Web Video is the future and Kelpie Media is right there at the point where the two converge.
