Will Luers’s Summary

I create and publish videos for online social networks. As a solo video producer and publisher, I offer an affordable and effective way to market products, services and ideas on the web.

I approach projects as a video journalist. I listen closely for the client’s essential marketing story and then craft informative and engaging videos that communicate that story visually and authentically with real people in real contexts.

Distribution on social network platforms is part of an overall strategy of reaching communities of common interest. I integrate video production and post-production with writing, web design and social networking so that messages easily and quickly reach their intended communities.

- ONLINE VIDEO EXPERTISE
- SOUP-TO-NUTS CONCEPT THRU DISTRIBUTION
- EFFECTIVE VISUAL STORYTELLING
- PERSONABLE AND RESPONSIVE APPROACH

I have over twenty years experience making short video documentaries. An early adopter of social media, I was named a pioneer in videoblogging in Forbes.com’s Top Technology Trends (2004) and in The New York Times (2006).
