Client Work
At Portal A Interactive, we help clients in areas as diverse as entertainment and education deliver a high-impact message directly to their target audience.
Our memorable shorts have helped companies increase brand exposure, promote customer engagement, and build communities around their product or service. We execute our strategy in two parts:
- We create compelling video content that speaks directly to a niche audience.
- We embed that content within the platforms (blogs, social networking sites, etc.) where the targeted viewers for the video already spend their time.
To hire us to make video for your company, please fill out a contact form, or email us at info<at>portal-a.com.
Here are some of the projects we’ve worked on in the past year:
BIG CHIMPIN’ - We helped Bonobos Pants get the word out about their summer line of swim trunks through a fun, playful short.
VOCAB VIDEOS – We were commissioned by Manhattan-based tutoring company A-List Education to create VocabVideos.com, a video site that offers a easy way for high school students to study SAT vocabulary. For the site, we created 500, 40-second videos, each of which illustrates the meaning of a different vocabulary word. Here’s the tutorial video we made to explain the product.
DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A BANKER – Hyperion Books hired us to produce a rap music video promoting the release of their 2008 title, Damn It Feels Good To Be A Banker, a parody of Wall Street culture. The video instantly became the talk of “The Street” and was picked up by nearly every major industry blog. It’s currently been viewed more than 500,000 times on Youtube.
THE ELEVATOR PITCH – When web startup Thumbtack.com asked us to come up with an elevator pitch to describe their product, we took the request literally. They ended up using this video as their entry into a business plan competition.
GOOGLE TV ADS INTRODUCTION – Google asked us to create a tutorial video to get new users acquainted with their innovative TV ad platform. To illustrate how user-friendly the product was, we crafted a memorable story around an eyebrow salesman.
BATTLEGROUND FOR YOUR HEART – We produced this boy band parody to support the “Vote For Change” effort during the 2008 presidential election season. The video was picked up by a number of political blogs, including Andrew Sullivan’s Daily Dish and has been viewed 125,000 times on Youtube alone.
