V03 – It takes courage to be honest, and humanity to do it well
I found that the last version seemed to have two ideas; honesty and doing honest feedback well. I’ve gone for the latter angle. Love to hear what your thoughts are. https://vimeo.com/122059995
V02 – would I lie to you?
The video is out of focus because I was standing away from the camera a bit too much. A nice visual reminder for where I’m at; the shapes are there but it’s still a bit fuzzy. Sorry about the swearing, lost most of it except the RTFM bit because I think that may be necessary. https://vimeo.com/121853623

Still writing, so this is not about delivery but content. Would love to hear what your thoughts are on this! https://vimeo.com/121001501

Version 02 of the intro video
Still a lot of work to be done on the pacing, titles and audio but it’ll give you an idea on where we’re heading. Love to hear what your thoughts are! https://vimeo.com/120449762

What do you do?
This is a draft cut of your video, so we’re still working on colour, audio and refinement of the cut. Love the way you come across! I think these will really help to make the penny drop with your audience. https://vimeo.com/119926336

Trust is about what the notes we don’t play
Miles Davis once said that jazz is about the notes you don’t play. Communication around building trust is not about more information: that will just overwhelm our audience.
How we decide who to trust
The people we want to connect with make decisions about who they trust based on what seems to be very little information: a short story, a few non verbal and visual cues. How does that work?
Thin Slicing
Thin slicing is the ability to find patterns in events based only on “thin slices,” or narrow windows, of experience. Studies have shown that brief observations can be used to assess outcomes, at levels higher than expected by chance. 
How this applies to video
An interesting aspect of visual content is that we are surprisingly good at assessing someone’s skill level and intelligence. The research is mind boggling; humans can fairly accurately assess someone’s intelligence and personality just by looking at someone’s photo. We’re not describing prejudice here; this is measurable and the experiments have been repeated with similar results.
People behind the brand
We can use thin slicing and our ability to assess personality by communicating around the people behind brands. Staff profile videos are a great application of this; a 20-30 second video will give our viewers enough information to assess whether they’re a good fit with your culture and values. https://vimeo.com/99794385
Authenticity – you can’t control the outcome
To stick with the jazz analogy; if you write out the whole composition, it stops being jazz. Staff profiles can backfire if they’re overly scripted and contrived. If you do profile videos, you have to allow for variation and deviation. As long as you everyone on board on values and your brand essence, diversity of delivery and opinion will only further strengthen your brand and the communication of purpose. https://vimeo.com/102607249
LinkedIn profile videos
Once you have the staff profile videos in place, you can greatly improve the impact you have by adding them to everyone’s LinkedIn profile. Here’s a tutorial on how to add a video to your LinkedIn profile.

True love is a rental car
Nothing says ‘I love you’ more than a rented Mercedes, and event that is followed by Jill’s sudden headache and a calendar event that reads ‘Intake appointment relationship counselling 9.00 Monday’.
