This creates a unique mixture of local talent, talent from other major cities, and production companies. That makes Washington, DC special when it comes to who is filming in the city, but also who’s doing the filming itself. By capitalizing on this unparalleled blend of talent and profession, you can ensure your business’ video project is hitting new heights in terms of both creativity and professionalism.
Fresh and unique:
By now we know that you shouldn't overlook DC when thinking about producing your next video, but lots of companies do — that’s actually a good thing for your business and its video project. DC is greatly underutilized when comparing it to other major production cities like New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, and even Albuquerque. That means your videos wont have the same overused aesthetic and routine techniques. By producing a video in Washington, DC, your video will take on an identity that stands out from the pack. It also means the creative minds behind your project are adding DC’s own special flair to your production with skills honed and crafted in the District. And while DC might not be Hollywood, 88Visual is rolling out the Emmy winning, red carpet treatment for video productions right here in the DMV!
