Project Spotlight – May 2021 Posted by John Assalian on June 8, 2021 VIDEO Lexus Collision Assistance Lexus wanted an ultra-modern video to show off the collision assistance feature in its new app. Viewstream created a semi-futuristic 3D environment and made a complete 3D model of a Lexus vehicle to show viewers how the collision assistance feature works. “The middle section of this video features an interactive sequence where the phone user is performing a number of tasks in the workflow. To make this human-phone interaction sequence look true to life, Viewstream filmed a hand model in our production studio to make sure we get each swipe, each tap, and each gesture. In post-production, we accurately sync the hand movements to the pre-recorded app workflow.” Andrew AssalianSVP Accountsaassalian@viewstream.com WEBSITE Prosimo.io Launch Package Prosimo has come up with a radical new way to empower a true multi-cloud infrastructure strategy that allows users to deliver apps that are fast, secure and cost-optimized. As part of the full launch package production, and in addition to being tapped to design and develop the Prosimo.io website , Viewstream was tasked with distilling their technical offering into infographics that could transmit their value proposition cleanly, quickly, and beautifully. Deliverables: Infographic strategy and design, diagram design, presentation deck design, eBook design, website information architecture, design and development, video and motion graphic production, interactive infographic design and development, interactive assessment design and development, banner ad design. “It’s always a thrill to work with early-stage technology companies, but the Prosimo launch was particularly engaging. Conceiving of visuals and interactive experiences that communicate complex concepts such as “Application Experience Infrastructure”, was certainly a challenge, but we are incredibly proud of the end result. This project touched almost everyone at Viewstream at one stage or another. It was a full team affair and is a great example of the wide production skillset we offer.” Aiden FishbeinAccount Directorafishbein@viewstream.com Best regards,The Team @ Viewstream
Project Spotlight – March 2021 Posted by John Assalian on April 8, 2021 VIDEO Verimatrix App Shield Viewstream partnered with Verimatrix to rename and re-brand their popular app security offering now known as App Shield. Changing the name from ProtectMyApp to App Shield provided the opportunity to create an explainer video for this SaaS product and assist to re-brand and modernize the brand identity and messaging. Verimatrix App Shield is doing something that no other company in the world is doing — offering professional-grade mobile app protection in a SaaS model. The App Shield video by Viewstream tells this story. “Communicating about cybersecurity offerings and data obfuscation in a succinct and attention sustaining video required advanced storytelling abilities. The Viewstream creative approach blended 2D and 3D animation, motion-graphics and iconography to reflect concepts like protecting devices across the stack and making available the highest level cryptographic shielding to everyday app developers. Nuanced VoiceOver and a custom audio backing tracks set the mood and kept the pace lively.” Andrew AssalianSVP Accountsaassalian@viewstream.com MOTION GRAPHICS Scholastic Pre K Scholastic has created a complete educational program that is suitable for both the traditional and the virtual classroom.

Project Spotlight – December 2020 Posted by John Assalian on December 22, 2020 VIDEO Adobe Connect When Adobe Connect came to Viewstream to tell the story of Las Vegas EMS Training center, we were very excited. But with COVID-19 shutting down education all over the country, the Las Vegas EMT training center was faced with a new challenge: How to educate first responders when classes cannot be held in a traditional way? Viewstream interviewed all of the stakeholders to develop a story that would both relate the urgency of the need for classes, as well as demonstrating the power of adobe connect. Once we knew the full story, we sent the stakeholders the Viewstream Virtual Studio (VVS). The VVS allowed us to record the subject’s on-camera interviews remotely without the need to send a crew. For the subjects, the experience is similar to a zoom meeting, with very little setup required. “It was an honor to create a documentary about the training of front-line workers in the midst of a global pandemic. And when a client has a great success story to tell about their product, it makes our job a lot easier! We are not working the front line, but at Viewstream we are trying to do our part by empowering brands to create content in the safest way possible.” Tom JaggerVP of Onsite & Virtual Productiontjagger@viewstream.com WEB & BRAND Framed & Matted Back in 2013, Framed & Matted pioneered the online custom farming category and they continue to make it better every day.

Project Spotlight – November 2020 Posted by John Assalian on November 30, 2020 VIDEO Intel Geospatial Explainer Video AI-powered visualizations. Geospatial data. Game-changing insights. Welcome to Intel Geospatial! Now, create a video that communicates a complex platform in a simple and eye-catching way. Hello Viewstream. We created a simple, engaging and eye-candy like video that shows how Intel Geospatial changes the Geospatial game. “Collaborating with the Intel Geospatial team was a creative joy as they combine both art and science to tackle real-world problems like fire risks and other visual inspections. Check out the video to see how we merged high tech with human touch.” Rob McLayVP of Creativermclay@viewstream.com DIGITAL MARKETING Deloitte Digital + Adobe This marketing initiative was a cobranded campaign (Deloitte Digital + Adobe) around the Experience Management as a Service offering, using an account-based marketing approach. We employed TAL (Target Account List) based on awareness of both Deloitte Digital’s customers and potential prospects targeted to industry later. We set up tests, observed results, and made decisions based on data to optimize conversion rates. Using this methodology allowed maximum agility to adjust the campaign cadence as needed. “The Nat Geo campaign by Deloitte Digital and Adobe took a lot of collaboration on the back end from setting up the event’s webpage and linking to the lead collection and follow-up. By working alongside the client’s media and development team we were able to create a seamless experience for guests who registered for the virtual event.” Kaelyn TanakaOperationsktanaka@viewstream.com VIDEO Viewstream 2021 Reel In the world of video storytelling, a “reel” is a visual statement of who you are and what you do. For us, it is an expression of the quality Viewstream is known for and what prospective clients can expect when working with us. It is not only a way to showcase our work to the world, but it is also for US; a team-wide celebration of recent accomplishments and a visual shout-out to and spotlight on our amazing artists we work with every day. A proud scorecard of past work and how we’ve grown over the years, a powerful snapshot of where we are today, and a glimpse of how we plan to leap in the future. We hope you enjoy the piece! We sure enjoyed making it 😉 “Finding the right clips that highlight our best work, recrafting our story using only on-screen text elements from our client’s videos…always a creative challenge, but we’re always excited to take it on. The key was also to find the right music track! We really wanted to bring out the high end/modern feel of our works, and showcase the variety of industries we serve.” Ben LopataDirector of Productionblopata@viewstream.com DID YOU KNOW?

It empowers reps with a simple platform to generate personalized videos and tools to distribute across social and direct channels to extend visibility, reach, and recruitment. “Your reps need tools that help them stand out in a human way and sell more efficiently.

Take a peek under the hood today.” Aiden FishbeinProduct Owner, NPDafishbein@viewstream.com WEBSITE PRODUCT PAGES Boston Dynamics A spin-off from MIT, Boston Dynamics creates mobile robots, like the popular Spot.

Viewstream simplified and upgraded the creative and editorial for the product pages, as well as created a GTM e-Book and media promotion campaign. “Boston Dynamics is the most recognized brand in robotics. Viewstream partnered with our clients to help them win in the market through content marketing and expanded media.” John AssalianCEOjohn@viewstream.com VIDEO COX Business The COX IPC Explainer video was a great example of a high tech concept being communicated quickly and compellingly. The goal of the video was to arm the client’s sales force with a tool that could explain, in under 3 minutes, the benefits of the IPC offering and effectively prime the sales conversation. This video is now being duplicated and personalized with each reps contact information to further empower them to sell better. “Telling the story of high-tech solutions is always a challenge, but this explainer is a great example of when good writing, design, and post-production come together to achieve that goal. It was a pleasure to work on and I’m always happy when our work makes it easier for our clients to bring in business.” Travis DixonCreative Directortdixon@viewstream.com Best regards,The Team @ Viewstream
