We Make Videos that People Share

Too many organisations have commissioned high quality videos and then been disappointed with the number of views they get. We use cutting-edge research to inform a strategic approach to YouTube. This means taking the time to understand your audience and what motivates them to share, optimising the name and description of videos and developing seeding strategies to ensure the videos are seen.

This doesn’t mean multi-million view viral success, but it does mean consistently increasing the number of views for videos we produce. Watch Richard Roaf’s presentation on “Winning YouTube: What the Research Says” (right) for more on our approach and get in touch to find out how we could apply this approach to your organisation.

WDM Climate Santas Action

The Brief

Alter Eco were brought in to film an action involving a group of climate Santa’s delivering coal to an HSBC branch in London. We ensured the target audience of WDM supporters were put at the heart of the narrative and edited the video to be short, snappy and positive. The video was widely shared and was viewed over 4,900 times becoming WDM’s 2nd most watched YouTube video (out of 157.)
 

 

‘Ask the eCampaigning Forum’ Videos

The Brief

Alter Eco were asked to produce a series of videos capturing the activity of the eCampaigning Forum 2013. We conducted 16 interviews which were then edited into seven short videos each of which addressed a different question in a rapid fire style. Using the Youtube links function, the videos are linked video so after watching one you are able to click to immediately watch another.

Here is what Duane Raymond of FairSay said about working with us:

“Richard provided excellent leadership and production expertise right from starting the project and proposing viable ways forward through to managing the video team and turning the idea into reality. I will work with Richard again when the opportunities arises as it was a pleasure and a learning experience.”
