The DVDs
Promotional DVDs are an average of 3-5 minutes long, depending on the length of the song and the quality of the footage. If you would like a longer DVD, please contact us for a quote.
The DVD will give viewers several options after it loads. The first, of course, allows you to play the video. The second enables you to select a scene. The third, if you provide it, gives a brief description of the horse in writing and provides your contact information, so that potential clients can get in touch with you.
Each DVD has a label customized to marketing your horse, and comes in a slim transparent jewel case.
Preparation
In order to highlight your horse’s best attributes, we need some help from you.
Please be ready to provide:
- Your footage, if you are providing any
- A CD with the music you would like to use in the video, if you would like the DVD set to music
- A short piece of writing describing your horse, if you wish to include that on the DVD (we may edit this)
- The contact information that you would like displayed on the DVD
We strongly recommend using music to “set the mood” for prospective clients. If you would like some help choosing a song, please let us know! We’d be happy to help.
Preparing for the shoot
Consider where you want to showcase your horse. To get the most out of a promotional session, it is best to shoot in several locations and with the horse and handler/riding wearing different clothes or equipment. This gives the impression of different days, providing more variety to the DVD and making it more interesting for prospective clients.
