Portland Based Video Production House Pivots to Destination Marketing

November 21 14:40 2018

The video production landscape is constantly changing. When Morrisey Productions started producing videos the cameras used Mini DV Tapes. In the last 10 years, a lot has changed for filmmakers. One huge change is the rapid development of new technology has allowed videographers to take to the sky with high-definition drone footage. Cameras have gotten smaller and the video quality has improved dramatically. Technology has lowered the barriers of entry for many but producing timeless video still requires years of experience and an eye for composition.

Seth Morrisey the Co-Owner of a Portland based video production company Morrisey Productions says, “Over the last 10 years we’ve had the chance to work on more than 100 different video projects in all different niches. These videos have ranged from drone flights for Oregon Public Broadcasting to sit down interviews for local clients. At the end of the day we’ve come to realize that in order to keep enjoying the process, we needed to focus in. After years of working on destination marketing videos for cities like Newport, Cannon Beach, and Seaside Oregon we’ve realized that’s where our passion resides.”

Moving forward, Morrisey Video Production will devote a large portion of our resources to providing the highest-quality destination marketing videos focusing on promoting tourism and outdoor adventure. Seth says, “The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place to live and work, and it’s our goal to showcase our wonderful region and promote sustainable tourism.” Seth continues “My favorite part about living in Oregon is the beauty of the natural environment that’s all around us! In fact, that’s the primary reason I became a filmmaker. I’d much rather spend a day on a remote mountain then be stuck in an office. Furthermore, producing videos in a studio has never appealed to us and that’s why we’ve moved into destination marketing. This pivot allows us to do what were passionate about while serving our customer base.”

One of the hottest trends in the video production world is adventure tourism. Researchers have attributed this spike in interest in the outdoors to the advent of smart phone technology and photo sharing sites like Instagram. Seth commented on this growing trend “I think we really have two big factors at play here. When the internet was first becoming mainstream people were hooked, but because they could only access the internet from a clunky PC in their house they were stuck inside. Smart phones have evolved and allowed people to have access to information anywhere, and I think this plays a big roll in uptick of people looking for outdoor adventure. I also believe another big factor is sites like Instagram have a large user base that focuses on adventure photography and videography. This user base likes to share photos that show they’re adventurous! In turn, this pushes people to participate in many outdoor actives in order to capture the perfect shot! I firmly believe the combination of these two factors is a huge contributor to the adventure tourism trend which we’re excited to embrace.”
