“How To...” Videos for 2012

If you're anything like me instruction manuals usually get thrown out with the rest of the packaging and the first place you turn to find out how something works, how to fix something or how to learn a new skill or technique is to get online and head to YouTube.

With this in mind we launched our “How To...” series on Labyrinth Studios TV. Working with local companies, these films are designed to be practical demonstrations rather than just 'talking heads'. Showing real professionals (doing what they do best) using the products they make and demonstrating the services they provide. And not only are our “How To...” videos a great way for businesses in Cornwall to get exposure on the worlds second biggest search engine (and improve their Google ranking in the process) but they are also a great way for Cornish companies to get low cost video content for their web & social media sites. Our “How To..” videos can cost as little as £60 each.

(Prices for an equivalent corporate video shoot start at approx. £350.)




In 2012 we aim to produce a series of “How To...” videos each month designed with a particular theme in mind and, as it's Valentine's Day in a few weeks time, Love is in the Air during February.

We're looking to produce “How To...” guides for -

  • Preparing a romantic meal

  • Creating a sexy hair/make-up look

  • Mixing intoxicating cocktails and making sinful desserts

  • What to wear for your big date

  • and many more...

Anything with a romantic, indulgent or slightly sexy feel to it - if you have an idea for a romantic “How To...” video get in touch. Especially as all our romantic “How To...” videos produced/released in February will receive a 25% Discount.

Prices:

  • 1 Video – Normal Price £100 / with Discount £75

  • 2 Videos – Normal Price £75ea. / with Discount £56.25 each

  • 3+ Videos – Normal Price £60ea. / with Discount £45 each

We're interested in hearing from any fashion & beauty companies, bars & retaurants or any businesses in Cornwall looking to help spread the love.
