35 Exciting Ways Marketers Can Use Video
Organizations around the world are shifting to hybrid or even returning to in-person models. During this transition, teams are focusing on maintaining the workflows that were truly impactful last year. These workflows were developed out of necessity to simplify manual administrative tasks and create better collaboration for distributed workforces and their audiences.
End-to-end video tools are one such solution, allowing teams, whether distributed or in-person, to create more video. They do this by reducing the time it takes to create a video and the expense that goes into a single project.

Empower your team to be self-sufficient video marketers
While the use cases outlined above can absolutely be filmed on-site and in-person using equipment you already have on-hand to produce polished results, you can more easily and more quickly film them with a remote video creation solution. With tools like OpenReel, teams are empowered to produce low-lift content with less dependence on busy video production teams than ever before. As things normalize and more crews return to filming onsite, video teams are booked solid, but OpenReel customers haven’t missed a beat; they’re able to film when and where they need video in a self-sufficient way and remove some of the heavy lift from their video teams. Now is the time to think beyond the norm to experimenting with additional creative edge use cases that are no longer so out of reach.
