Promotional

I’ve created promotional videos for a wide variety of clients, including non-profits, academics, and individuals. Currently, I specialize in projects involving community and academic collaboration. In this realm, I’m skilled at translating complex ideas into easily digestible video content, and I excel at crafting videos that neatly integrate everyone’s desires.

 

I take a highly collaborative approach to client video production. Together, we agree on the target audience, focus, and key messages of the project. From there, I complete research, scripts, and storyboards (when applicable) in advance of filming, which we review and approve together. I then oversee the capture and first assembly of the video, with space for one round of revision by the client.

 

I am also available to support projects as a hired director, videographer, or editor.

Testimonials

Throughout our project, making videos with five different community organizations in five different locations, with five completely different contexts—background stories, role in the food system, target audience, even the goal of the video was different in every case— Nicole has been on top of it: setting a clear pathway without being prescriptive; understanding the objectives of our community partners; walking everyone through the storyboard and scripting process; explaining how to get the best visual to capture their meaning; and responding positively to suggestions and changes. And then producing impactful videos that somehow capture exactly what everyone hoped for when we started this process!

We were very pleased to work with Nicole on our promotional video. She was easy to work with and provided clear steps to walk us through a process that was new to us. Nicole also showed a lot of confidence in us doing what was right for us and was very amenable to our suggestions. She could see the bigger picture and helped us to develop our vision for the project. Overall we were very pleased with the process and the end product.

FarmWorks is very pleased with the video Nicole edited - she winnowed a huge amount of great content into an excellent overview of the benefits of investing in local businesses!

Nicole worked hard to tell our stories in ways that we didn’t even know were possible. She possesses a rare combination of technical and people skills, combined with profound community and scholarly insights. We have been so lucky to work with her!
Irena Knezevic
Nicole is a consummate professional. She worked patiently with community partners and academics to craft powerful narratives to effectively share our research findings. These short vignettes have provided engaging audio-visual content for use in the classroom and at conferences. They allow research to become more broadly disseminated through social media, for greater impact. And most importantly, they allow our community partners to share their stories to influence funding and policy decisions. I hope to work with Nicole again, to avail myself of her tremendous expertise in professional video production.

Nicole was a pleasure to work with and was so patient and helpful at our shoot. She really put my nerves at ease!
Hidden Harvest
Nicole was a pleasure to work with from the beginning of our project to its end. Working with limited time and resources, she took charge early, managing all aspects of the project and taking care to communicate about her progress and timelines, so we always knew what to expect. She was responsive to edits and suggestions, producing a video that 100% met our needs! Couldn't have hoped for a better experience.
Stephanie Hughes at ACORN
Nicole is fantastic! Always positive, always a problem solver. She is efficient, knowledgeable, kind and easily approachable. Our acting students learn so much from her about how to operate a camera and how to take direction.
Allison Graham Actor, Educator
We had the pleasure to work with Nicole Bedford on videos by faculty members for the Professional Accounting Research Group (PARG) at Sprott School of Business, Carleton University. In the five short videos, some Sprott accounting faculty members described their research. All the production was done by Nicole. They are similar in style, but at the same time different enough. When we will have other similar projects, I will call Nicole again

We were super excited to have found Nicole Bedford through our networks and were blown away by the detail and vision in her project proposal. The process and product were even better, with expert branding, advice and deliverables. She did her research and used her unique talents to deliver a really fantastic promotional product for our society's mentoring program. Awesome to the smallest detail.
