A Vicarious Valentine Video

We’re a twelfth of the way into 2007 and just a week away from Valentine’s Day. Because we specialize in memorials and tributes – rarely do we get the privilege of expressing the emotion of love between a couple in the building of their relationship. This year we were grateful to get the opportunity to do exactly that.

A young man stopped by the studio with a hand full of pictures and gobs of video! He practically had the work done for us - or so we thought. Generally most of what we do relies on creating the illusion of motion with static images, while in this case we had to do the exact opposite. The outcome of this video was amazing.

For the first time we had to reverse the process of motion and had the chance to give a totally unique illusion and effect that we’ve never done before. The feelings that overwhelm you while seeing this montage could never be put into words – I’m so proud of what we do.

With St. Patrick’s Day just around the corner, give us a call! Help us make video-graphic history and a memory preserved in time for you.


From all of us here at JumbleStudios –
Happy Valentines Day!

Our 2007 Competitive Advantage

I was reading an article about an author who interviewed a lot of CEO’s about their competitive advantage’s and how most CEO’s couldn’t list them all for their companies. In the service industry a competitive advantage is very important. It’s what brings the customers and keeps them coming back.

Luckily, as CEO of Jumble Studios, I can list our advantages and explain why you, as the customer, would want to do business with us.

Our….

• Caring attitude that we put into each montage we create evokes emotion that shows in our work.
  
• Ability to work with the families is a key component to making a montage that fits you. Most of our montages are memorial specific – a tribute of someone’s past. And working with families is a key to bringing the lost back to life and expressing what you’ll never forget.
  
• Cutting edge technology sets us apart from the competition ten fold. Our creative designers are highly trained and have many years with hands on work with the industry standard software we use. We don’t use cookie-cut software that does the work for us and cuts out any creative control. We make the motion and emotion with every frame.
  
• Professional creativity drastically sets us apart. Setting everything aside, our know-how, our professionalism, our industry expertise… there’s nothing that says more about our competitive advantage than our unparalleled creativity. Several of us at Jumble Studios are amateur photographers and work with professional photographers on a regular basis. We see the little things that make the big picture and respect every pixel of your memories.
  
• Turn around time can make the difference. Memorial specific orders come with our “Priority Wake Option” which gives you a temporary package to view at the wake/funeral ceremony while your final montage is created. This takes the waiting time out and still gives us plenty of time to make your memorial perfect.

For us to simply list what sets us apart is really useless, as our preview demonstrations show what could never be put into words. Because of this I ask you to take a challenge, test our advantages and make them your own.

And to our competitors… What are yours?

The great break!

Hello and welcome,

I hope everyone is enjoying their break, perhaps the greatest break of the year!
While most of you get paid for the time off- we, however, do not... But we enjoyed every minute of it :)

First off Merry Christmas to all and I'm sure everyone had a wonderful time and put smiles on everyone’s faces this year. I had the privilege to give my grandma a hand made DVD of their life in motion. The video starts off as a though it’s been produced for the big screen - it has the look of serenity and happiness while evoking childhood emotions with the movements and tempo. Although the movie is a memorial and technically should be sad and/or depressing... It's far from!

I'm sure the majority of anybody reading this has no idea who Maybelle & Jack Oney are nor would sincerely feel about them how I feel. With that said, by watching our video you will feel as though you've known them your whole life and if you could see yourself watching it, you'd have big smile on your face. I guarantee it!

The movie, titled "Jack and Maybelle Oney - The Movie", is just under seven minutes long and close to a hundred pictures total. Each picture was re-mastered and drastically brought back to life. Most of the images were scanned poorly by family members in a rush - and still we were able to overcome. With such little time and small amount of resources, the emotion, feeling, style, and energy that is conjured while watching is unparalleled to anything I've ever seen. This video, perhaps, may be the best we've ever made.
Granted the movie is under eight minutes long, you can view the first three minutes on the website on the *Preview* http://www.jumblestudios.com/preview.aspx section labeled memorial video.
Please, I urge you to check it out and smile with the rest of us.

Again I hope everyone's Christmas was a good one and we'll see you next year!

Happy New Years to all!
From: JumbleStudios Team

Welcome to our new site and look!

I can't express how much I appreciate you taking the time to read what I, the CEO and owner of JumbleStudios, have to say - as this business started out as a favor.

It all started when...
I was approached by a co-worker one day asking me if I have video to DVD experience. She wanted merely for me to take a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation and put it on a DVD so she could view it on her TV. The presentation was of her husband, whom had recently passed away. Heartbroken, I insisted I take it one step further and put a smile on her face and a tear of joy on her cheek.

What turned out as a favor to a sweet old cleaning lady flourished into a thriving business that I love to do. Everything we put into the video's we create is second to none. My team is highly creative and originality goes into every montage we develop. The ideas and creativity are endless which leaves the competition in the dust.

I really don't mean to degrade my competitors... But honestly - show me one video, JUST ONE, that compares and I'll backpedal with apologies.
It really bothers me that someone can call their work professional, with the same type of animation and effects you would expect from a 1980's music video.

Please take a look at a few short, for web, examples we have in our preview section of the website - http://www.jumblestudios.com/preview.aspx
I can guarantee you'll be left breathless :)

Come back for more blogging! This is just the beginning.
Love goes out to all,
-Mathew E. Komyanek
