Why Professional Video? - 3 Reasons Your Company Should Pay for Professional Production — March 9th, 2010
In the past 15 years, the availability of inexpensive recording formats for video has continued to improve, from hand-held MiniDV cameras of the late 1990s to current High Definition cameras available at the local BestBuy. While everyone now has access to HD quality cameras, the gap between professional video work and amateur work is still just as wide as it was decades ago. Everyone can go buy a hammer and nails at Home Depot, but you wouldn’t hire just anyone to build your house, so why would your standards for crafting an effective marketing video be any different? In both cases, a weak foundation will lead to disastrous results. Professionals train and practice for years to acquire the skills to produce the best-looking images, they use more advanced support equipment, and professional corporate video production companies understand more about your marketing and intended results than a mere amateur or hobbyist videographer.

Online Video For Business – 3 Reasons Your Company Should Implement in 2010 — January 20th, 2010
The Internet started as a text-only medium of communication with largely bulletin boards and eventually e-mail. It progressed to be a more interactive experience and expanded into millions of homes, beyond college campuses and technology institutes. Websites started including pictures, navigation, music, and other enhancements to appeal to viewers. By the end of the 1990s, Internet sites still relied mostly on pictures and sleek navigation to appeal to users. As YouTube skyrocketed in popularity, the integration of online video to professional Websites started to become more common place. Now, offering a Website with only pictures is like running a rental store with only silent movies; Web users and customers expect a more interactive experience, complete with videos of products, services, or people. Websites that include videos offer users more detailed information about products and services, give businesses an opportunity to control the way information is delivered, and increase the conversion rate of visitors to customers.

Having started in music videos primarily, Bowen has a flair for strong visuals and energetic cuts with rich colors and textures. Additionally, he believes that the best music videos can also incorporate significant themes and stories, even without having much time with which to work to convey meaning.
A training video can help your company standardize its operations and bring new employees into the fold quickly, without needing to spend as much time individually training each new hire. Training videos are especially useful for companies with operations in many locations, where consistency across the company’s facilities is of the utmost importance.
Bowen’s goal with narrative work is to develop a strong portfolio of short films, touring the festival circuit, before launching into feature filmmaking with several concepts and scripts he has in development. He is available for collaboration on narrative projects or for hire as a director or producer on any variety of narrative projects in any genre. As with all of his work, he has an eye for detail and an understanding of proper narrative structure, what makes films work, and the specifics of storytelling from both a position of experience as a filmmaker and as a film critic and historian.
JLB Media Productions is interested in doing commercial work for small or large companies, whether the desired market is local, regional, or national. Bowen can combine his professional filmmaking abilities with his creativity to make a successful commercial campaign for any company, regardless of the product or style desired.
For independent filmmakers, equipment can be one of the major limiting factors to accomplishing your goals for personal projects or your own paid projects. Equipment rental companies always charge too much for their equipment unless you are renting in large quantities or for long periods of time, which is largely because they have higher overhead and must recoup their costs quicker. JLB Media Productions has a variety of professional gear available for rental to independent filmmakers at reasonable prices.
