Amaze, a prominent Australian service provider specialising in cloud, data, and managed IT services, identified the need to articulate their unique value proposition to potential clients visiting their website. To address this, they set out to create a compelling video for their homepage, intended to elucidate the essence of Amaze and instil trust among their audience.
With an eye on catering to a market seeking reliability and a local touch, Amaze strategically chose to showcase their Sydney office, local technology infrastructure, and dedicated staff in the video. This approach not only underscored their commitment to being a dependable local company but also provided clients with a tangible connection to the inner workings of Amaze.
The video production unfolded during a half-day session at Amaze’s Waterloo office and the surrounding area. The footage featured Amaze’s founder and director articulating the company’s culture and services, adding a personal dimension to the narrative. Complementing this, the production team captured engaging b-roll footage, showcasing the seamless execution of Amaze’s operations and offering a comprehensive view of their capabilities.
