Why Every Business Needs a Signature Video: How One Brand Video Can Transform Your Marketing
If your business could only create one marketing asset this year, it should be a signature brand video.
A well-crafted brand video isn’t just a flashy piece of content—it’s a strategic tool that can increase visibility, build trust, and drive real results. When done right, it becomes the cornerstone of your marketing strategy, something that can be used across platforms, pitched to potential sponsors or investors, and repurposed for years to come.
We’ve seen firsthand how a single high-quality video can make a massive impact, and there’s no better example than our recent work with Somerville Youth Soccer. Their video didn’t just capture who they are—it directly contributed to securing major donations and sponsorships that continue to fuel their growth.
Let’s break down why a signature brand video is a game-changer, how businesses can leverage one high-quality video across multiple platforms, and what makes a truly effective brand video.
Your iPhone Won’t Cut It: Why Hiring a Boston Video Production Team is Worth It
These days, everyone has a camera in their pocket, and with smartphones boasting incredible video capabilities, it's easy to assume that DIY video is good enough for your brand.
But here’s the reality—when it comes to marketing, branding, and professional storytelling for your brand - an iPhone just won’t cut it.
Boston businesses need high-quality, strategic video content to stand out. A shaky, poorly lit, or unpolished video can make your brand look amateur, while a professionally produced video enhances credibility, engages your audience, and ultimately drives results.
So, is DIY video really saving you money? Or is it costing you customers?
Let’s break down the biggest DIY video mistakes, why professional videography matters, and a side-by-side comparison of DIY vs. professional video production.

Sony FX3 Rig vs. Sony FX6: Which One is Right for Your Production Needs?
When it comes to Sony’s cinema lineup, two cameras dominate the conversation for independent filmmakers, commercial videographers, and run-and-gun shooters: the Sony FX3 and the Sony FX6. Both cameras offer full-frame sensors, incredible low-light performance, and professional-grade video quality, but they serve different needs in the production world.
So, if you're debating between building out a Sony FX3 rig or investing in the Sony FX6, this guide breaks down the strengths, weaknesses, and which camera is better suited for different production types.
The Best Sony FX3 Rig Accessories for Filmmakers in 2025
The Sony FX3 is one of the most powerful compact cinema cameras available today, offering full-frame 4K recording, incredible low-light performance, and pro-level audio capabilities. However, to truly unlock its full potential, a well-built rig is what will really bring you to the next level.
While the FX3 is lightweight and portable straight out of the box, adding key accessories improves its usability, ergonomics, and production value. I don’t want to just rip into this blog saying that the only way to shoot with the FX3 professionally is to have a full rig built out. I’m never going to tell anyone that there is a right or a wrong way to shoot and honestly 50% of the time, we don’t have our full rig built out. This is why we LOVE the FX3. We find ourselves on a ton of shoots where we don’t have the full rig built out and we are using the FX3 in pretty much it’s out of box look - usually just with a smallrig cage slapped on. That’s right, no on board monitor, no v-mount; just the camera as is. It’s great for shoots where you need to be able to switch from horizontal to vertical (and if you are scoffing at this than you’re not building out serious ad sets for clients - if you know, you know) and sometimes you just need a lower profile.
