How’s it going? It’s Derek Lau with the January 2020 AideM Media Minute. Thank you for subscribing and thank you for tuning in, we’ve go a lot of cool videos for you this month. The one thing I definitely wanted to talk to you about, I touched on a little bit last year, was our company values.

Last year we told you about our first two company values which are Generosity and Passion. The third one is Elevation. Altogether it’s GPETS –Generosity, Passion, Elevation, Tenacity and Shine.

And for Elevation the two things I wanted to show you was one: I’m very excited to share with you our 2020 demo reel. It’s hot off the press. It’s all our best stuff for 2019, so I hope you enjoy it.

The other thing I want to share with you about our company elevating and going to the next level is some of our video marketing capabilities. And one of our best sources for video marketing is YouTube advertising. There’s not a lot of people that do it and we are very, very good at it.

I have another video here where I show some results we’ve had for different markets, from attorneys to car dealerships to real estate agents and insurance companies and mortgage brokers.

And of course, what’s an aideM Media Minute without us showing you some of our favorite work? Recently we wrapped up another commercial for the Rutter’s Dairy and it’s all about chocolate milk. And one of my favorite actresses and family members, Nan Lau, has a cameo in this one too, so I hope you like that.

We’ve just had our first snow of 2020, so just to keep it in season I wanted to share with you a video that we did last year. We got some aerial drone footage of last year’s last snow. So I hope you enjoy that and I hope you’re enjoying the snow.

Again, thank you so much for subscribing and reading this Aidem Media Minute. If you know somebody that would enjoy these videos, please share this with them and share it on your social media. I’ll see you February — have a great 2020! 

How’s it going? It’s Derek Lau with the August 2019 aideM Media Minute.

I hope you’re doing well, hope you’re staying cool with all these heatwaves we’ve been having this summer. I hope you got to take some vacations, hope you got to take a couple trips, travel a little bit, but most of all, just hope you’re enjoying your summer.

Maybe you got to see a baseball game or taking your kids to some traveling tournaments or something like that. Speaking of baseball games, one of the videos I wanted to share with you this month was one that we did for the Lancaster Barnstormers, for the whole Rock the L campaign. If you want to check that video out, you can check it below.

And of course one of my other favorite parts of summer is getting farm fresh vegetables, Lancaster County produce, things like that. So another video that I really had a fun time making and I’m really proud of, was one we partnered on with Stetler Dodge. It’s kind of a spoof, kind of a little parody-style video, where we’re having a little fun poking at your artisan maker-style videos and also letting people know how much they care about their customers with their farm fresh video. So check that one out, too. I hope you like it.

And as we roll into August, or what some people call the dog days of summer, I wanted to share with you another commercial that we did with our friends at Rutter’s, that we got to work with some furry friends and some new type of talent. So check out the Summer of Freedom commercial that we did, and the Dog Days of Summer spot that we did with the Rutter’s farm stores and convenience stores. It’s a really fun spot, and we had a lot of good time making it.

And even though it’s hot, hot, hot, I wanted to give a little throwback to a video that will remind you of some cooler days. It wasn’t too long ago. It was the last snowstorm that we had of 2019. We got some really fun drone footage, some really interesting looking drone footage in the middle of the snowfall, and things like that. We got some woods. We got some Lancaster County scenery and Lancaster County businesses. So if you want to think cool thoughts and cool off a little bit, check out our winter snow drone footage.

And as I enjoy my time here on the beach in beautiful, sunny South Carolina at Myrtle Beach, I just wanted to let you know I’m thankful for everyone who subscribes to this email newsletter, and our YouTube channel, and things like that. So I wanted to ask you to do one thing for me, if you don’t mind. If you know somebody that might be interested in this email newsletter, forward this email to them and ask them to sign up for it, or if you’re watching this video on YouTube, just hit that subscribe button down below and subscribe to our channel, and we’ll keep you updated with what other video projects we’re working on and what other things we’re doing with video marketing to help companies grow their business with video. Over and out, I’ll catch you in September.

PASSION:
Check out the video about our company values – this month we are covering our #PASSION. Find out what drives the team at aideM Media to make great videos!

This year with the Philadelphia Eagles representing Pennsylvania at the Super Bowl, we were prouder than ever to be a part of local Super Bowl ad for Rutter’s. Not only do we support the great food, fuel and drink (best chocolate milk EVER) that Rutter’s has to offer, they are one of our most enjoyable clients to work with every year for the Super Bowl, and we are so happy they bring us back each year. Rutter’s has an amazing staff of fun, hardworking people who are always opened to our creative and edgy ideas from beginning to end.

Rutter’s Farm stores officially changed and simplified their name to “Rutter’s” upon the launch of their 50 year celebration campaign. We were proud to serve as their video crew to help them tell their story, by reusing some “best of” footage from previous commercials. We shot a few new clips featuring some new menu items like their asian WOK, beer and wine. We also had the pleasure of working with Morgan Rutter, who is currently pursuing and acting degree in California and came back to good ol’ York PA to help act in the family business’ commercial. She appears in the last two shots of the ad!

This year whether you were supporting Pennsylvania by cheering for the Eagles, or just watching the game for the creative ads, we hope you caught ours during the third quarter, but if not, here it is!

This was actually the fourth year we had the pleasure of making a Super Bowl commercial for Rutter’s. Here is a look back to the past few years of productions we helped create with their team…. Which one do you like best? We will start off with the first one we ever made for them a few years ago…..

We were under the gun on this one with less than a week to come up with a concept, write a script, plan logistics, hire talent, shoot and edit the video. We pulled it off, and it started a great chain reaction of creating more super bowl spots in the future for Rutter’s.

Below is a behind the scenes shot of the second attempt at making an awesome big game ad – check it out – it was a lot of fun !

This was a funny spot that included football themes for the SB and also showcased some of their newest food items, sprinkled with comedy and adrenaline.

Last year we wanted to talk a bit about the history of the brand……This one was a great story on how the c-store has evolved through the generations.
