Video Production and Post-Production

The MedIT has a full-service video production facility with a creative team that can help turn a client’s vision into reality. We will work with the client to develop a script for the video that will meet their needs and budget. The video footage will be shot with digital HD cameras, professional lighting and microphones and then undergo post production. Once the video is complete, it will be published to the required format. Hosting options are available if necessary.

Some of our tools include:

• HD cameras
• Professional microphones
• Professional lighting
• Green screen for changing backgrounds
• Recording studio
• Video switcher for multiple camera and computer inputs
• Teleprompter for reading a script while looking at the camera
