Hall Media was featured in the July 2008 issue of Markee Magazine.
Thirteen-year old Hall Media Productions (HMP), also in Philadelphia, focuses on corporate and web work with the occasional commercial mixed in, says President Maureen Hall, citing a three-spot campaign for Wills Eye Hospital in the city.
Most of HMP’s clients emanated from the corporate world. Recent productions include a facility tour for Arkema, an international chemical company; a patient education web site for Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia; and a sales training video for Merk Inc., the pharmaceutical giant.
About 75 percent of the workload comes from the Delaware/New Jersey/New York City region, with the rest originating further up and down the coast. “We’ve been doing plenty of greenscreen work during the past two years,” says Hall, “for clients who come from as far north as Boston and as far south as South Carolina.”
She’s happy to report solid growth for HMP. “We’ve seen as incredible spurt in the past year,” which she attributes to concentrating on target markets “as well as the public having discovered the benefits of using video on the internet.”
HMP’s shooters have been lensing more HD in the past year, renting cameras “until we find the right flavor for our needs,” she says. HMP already owns a Panasonic SDX900 and cuts on Avid Adrenaline and Final Cut Pro HD systems.
The company also has a webcast-ready 500-square-foot soundstage, which hooks into an all-digital control room and the Internet through the HMP server.
