Who is it for?
Anyone is welcome at this event, and it is open to both members and non-members.
Video is taking over, in fact by 2019 it is predicted 80% of all internet traffic will be video, so if you’re not already using it you’re in danger of getting left behind. In an age where everyone is capable of creating their own material, video content faces enormous competition to stand out from the crowd.
To shed some light on this powerful marketing tool, the Chamber is delighted to welcome Charlie Gauvain from Eye Film, to our Norwich Business Breakfast who will explain how to develop a bespoke and compelling video strategy that’s right for your business. Charlie will suggest how you can sharpen your own video production, or when the right time is to consult a professional, so that you can ensure your video content is engaging, exciting and generates a return on your investment.
More about Charlie:
Charlie is the MD at Eye Film, and has produced over 100 hours of television and online content. He was spotted by the founder of Eye film Frank Prendergast in 1998, having already established himself with production credentials on huge films such as Independence Day. Since then, Charlie has produced video content for C4, ITV, BBC and Animal Planet and has represented the East on The Producers Alliance of Cinema and Television’s Board (PACT). Since 2000, the company has been BAFTA nominated, won three creative industry awards and a Royal Television Society award and worked with the likes of David Attenborough.
Coming from the documentary industry, he knows how to produce the most beautifully shot, engaging content that can make the difference between having material that resonates with consumers and gets shared and talked about to being lost in the noisy world of digital media.
This breakfast event is perfect for businesses looking to broaden their network contacts. Come along to hear about how you can enhance your promotional video presence, whilst at the same time experience the ultimate networking experience at Caistor Hall. A full English breakfast will be provided (along with a continental option) and you can make those important connections with some of Norfolk’s biggest names in business.
