Tallboy Talks – New video series
July 30th, 2010ITV HD blunder!
June 18th, 2010ITV has not helped the High Definition cause by missing England’s opening goal in the World Cup match against USA. I have been promoting HD as the future of television and video, and as I was watching the match on the ITV1 HD channel, suddenly a commercial appeared! The mistake was only 20 seconds long (seemed like a lifetime) in which Gerrard scored! I could not believe it! I shouted and swore at the TV and then switched channels to watch the rest of the match in Standard Definition. The timing of this mistake was unbelievable.
Interactive online magazines
May 12th, 2010Tallboy is always looking to find new ways to deliver video and we think we’ve found an excellent solution in the form of an online magazine!
Until recently, ‘online magazine’ meant one of two things. It was either a straightforward PDF with pages that turned. Or it was a flash creation with videos, music and lots of things to click. Extremely impressive, but extremely expensive!
Boosting British Businesses!
May 4th, 2010This year, the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) celebrates its 150th anniversary. Established in 1860, the BCC is a well renowned organisation supporting over 100,000 businesses across the UK, who between them employ over five million people.

Why you should have video on your website.
May 4th, 2010Video is the fastest growing phenomenon on the web. We all know that hours and hours of videos are uploaded to YouTube every minute (24 hours a minute to be precise) – and we think it’s usually something homemade and funny. But in 2009, the number of professionally produced videos on YouTube jumped by 20 percent. And there were 49 billion views of those videos! (read more…)
Educating the future…
April 20th, 2010Tallboy has seen the future – and it’s got nothing to do with technology. In fact, the future is as it has been in the past. The future isn’t iPads or HDTV. It’s a group of bright eight and nine year olds, as always, fascinated and excited by the magic of video.
“Be sincere; be brief; be seated” – and now, be on video.*
March 26th, 20102010 is the year of the tiger in the Chinese Zodiac – and the tiger is the sign of bravery. With a fragile economy, the number of unemployed nearing 3 million in the UK, this year we will need all our courage to survive, go forward and prosper.

Is it worth producing your next corporate video in High Definition?
February 8th, 2010Daniel Craig in those swimming trunks; the Dark Knight in all its gothic splendor – even YouTube are doing it. With High Definition, as the blurb goes, you’re not just at the movies; you’re in the movies.
But what exactly is High Definition (HD)? And should you be using it in your next Corporate video production? After all, if it’s good enough for Daniel Craig…
