Who We Are

It has been our long-term belief that the Internet is rapidly evolving into the next generation of television. However the majority of web-based video content is generally of poor quality, and those that produce web-videos typically offer cookie-cutter solutions rather then the custom solutions clients need to engage their audience. What is missing is the television quality “sizzle” that grabs the viewer, tells her what she needs to know, and compels her to act. 18 Media was founded to take that television sizzle and use it to engage a new breed of consumer who is more web-centric.

While television production elements are crucial to raising the bar on quality, it’s clear that your audience has a different mind-set when viewing video on the web rather then sitting on the couch watching television. The web viewer is looking for instant gratification – there is less time to engage them. Powerful visuals, succinct story lines, slick graphics and music are critical to the success of a web video campaign.

The 18 Media team has a proven track record of bringing the sizzle. We know what resonates with viewers and we know how to translate that into compelling web-video content.
