Fresh out the studio, new website just launched! rosalindcrone.com 🔥

Yesterday’s shoot at the Cardiff Harbour Authority building - with an incredible view over the barrage, this office also comes with its own delightful wind tunnel balcony. Makers of Pantene TV commercials will be thrilled; content makers in the corporate and professional arena, less so. Still, great shooting with our fab client as always - videos out soon. 📽️ Have a great long weekend everyone! #explainervideo #videocontent

🔥 August community round-up 🔥 --- Halfway through the month and we've shifted a huge amount of 'things' out of our studio / homes / storage unit and passed to the right people who need them - it's been a busy few weeks! ➡️ A boot-load for Baby Basics This week we're donating a pile of baby essentials to Baby Basics UK, a charity supporting new mothers who might struggle to afford what they need. Our pile includes a Moses basket, stairgate, nappies, high chair and 3 biiig bags of baby clothes and toys taken to the Vale branch. ➡️ Local playgroup donation A long time ago a client gifted us a giant pink parachute - it was awesome, but not a lot of call for it over the years! Happily we've now donated it to a local Cylch Meithrin playgroup in Penarth who are super excited for parachute games and making shelters. ➡️ Litter-pick to keep Penarth tidy We've got a litter-pick and team breakfast scheduled for Fri 22nd August, excited to see how much we can collect Keep Wales Tidy - any local businesses who want to join us and double our efforts, just shout! 😁 #studionews #penarth

Miro - not a tool we use every day by any stretch, but it's such a powerful way to visualise and create plans, schedules and video storyboards. Clients love the collaborative functionality while we think it's easily the most visual way to put creative outputs against a tangible plan and get instant approval. Really easy to use, with a free version too - a great creative weapon in the arsenal of any creative team planning videos, social calendars, customer personas... the list goes on! http://miro.com #marketingtool #tooloftheweek

Every content strategy should start with the end. Where will your content take people - and will they take the actions you want them to when they get there? 👩💻 We find it helpful to begin with 'getting your house in order' - there are *always* opportunities and improvements that can be made to how you've structured your pages or organised your content. One recent project we loved working on involved a shedload of great content hidden away in PDFs - our first port of call was to extract it all and put it natively into the website, so a much better experience for visitors, keeping them on-platform and engaged. We brought 86% more people to the website from social, and that's why it's important to do the work before you start shouting - because for 86% more people, the website was now a better platform that had a higher chance of converting new leads. Result! #uxdesign #contentstrategy

Experimentation is a critical part of social campaigns - that's why we used a recent Meta ads campaign for a client to test whether 'glossy' higher production quality was what got the views and clicks in social videos - or if something simpler was better. Were we serving caviar when a cheeseburger was what the people wanted? 🍔 We put out two versions of one video. One was higher production; the other we shot on iPhone and was made to feel more 'real'. Apart from that difference, both ads had: ✅ Same on-screen text, graphics & messaging ✍️ Same ad caption, headline and call-to-action 💰 Same initial budget behind both ads 🙋♂️🙋♀️ Same audiences, same platforms And the big drastic difference in results? Well... nothing. 🤯 Both ads were neck-and-neck at points, and audiences responded really well to all ads. So what does this tell us? 👉 Get your strategy and messaging right, and you have flexibility and freedom with the actual content you pair it with 👉 Audiences don't need fancy production to resonate with your ads - phone-level video can work brilliantly and get the same results #digitalmarketing #socialcampaign #digitalagency

Very pleased to share that Sherman Theatre / Theatr y Sherman's latest production, The Wife of Cyncoed, has been a runaway, sold-out smash hit! 🔥 We had a great time shooting with Vivien for the show poster and e-trailer - and great to see the show's had all the accolades and praise it deserves 👏 Check it out: https://lnkd.in/e8FkEhex #thewifeofcyncoed #theatreadvertising
