What’s Your Video Production Reputation?
No matter where you upload and distribute your video or film content to, perhaps the most important reason why you are motivated to take that action is to build your up your profile, and to say to the world “I’m here and look at the talent I have”.
Video sharing sites can be great for the ego if you see lots of viewers consuming your content, but nobody knows the story behind how that video came to be through the lenses of each team member involved with the project.
Each production project is an opportunity to build your reputation as well as helping your team members build up their own as well. The reason why eBay works so well is because it’s a community built on trust, and whoever can’t earn the trust of the community will ultimately fail. Mostly on the seller side, but I’ve heard stories of these individuals getting a new eBay account giving them a second chance to gain the trust needed to become successful.
With each product and in Spidvid’s case each production project, a reputation is either enhanced or it gets hurt. It’s up to each individual to either commit and earn positive feedback, or not commit and earn negative feedback.
The Internet was long an anonymous medium in which nobody had a real name, or even a picture for others to connect to. That’s how many of us wanted it because fear was driven into us that we could be abducted, rapped, or even killed by the creepy strangers and predators lurking out there online.
There still are many bad people out there looking to hurt innocent and naive people, but for the most part many of us are looking to build social profiles which establish our credibility and to let others know that we are good, and don’t want to remain anonymous anymore.
You might be saying to yourself right now that you have references who would back you, which I have no doubt that they would do, but imagine having everyone you have worked with in the past endorsing you for each and every project you were part of. Now that’s a digital trail of reputation which is pretty valuable, and an on-demand solution for showing anyone who wants to you know about you, exactly what type of individual you are. Having your team members tell stories about who you are as a person, and reasons why others should want to work with you also is like reputation gold for your personal brand.
Our goal is to connect the right combination of individuals to undertake projects that translate into remarkable video and film entertainment, but we also want to provide a platform where a profile can be shared and leveraged on important things like resumes and media kits.
