Video Advertising Campaigns Need More Than Lights, Camera, and Action
Hint: (They Need an Audience)

Video is no longer that thing you put on your social media or website wish list. The medium has become a driving force behind Facebook, Twitter, and the Internet at large. Video advertising campaigns should be central to your branding. And good news: thanks to the technological revolution, production is easier to achieve than ever before.

But here's the caveat: The core principles of video production remain the same. That means regardless of money or production value, if you don't understand your audience - your video campaign may as well be a flipbook.

Our latest blog offers a checklist  to help you determine if your ads have what it takes to get noticed in today's media environment.

INDUSTRY NEWS
Is the Actual Reality of Virtual Reality in Jeopardy? 

Google has reportedly canceled its plans to build a series of Virtual Reality (VR) cameras for motion picture filmmakers.

The project - which would have enabled audiences to take part in an immersive, 360 degree virtual video production - was a joint venture between Google and the IMAX Corporation, the latter of which recently closed two of its seven VR centers.

While feature film projects utilizing VR are still in the works - most notably director John Ogilvie's "Lone Wolf" and John Favreau's "The Lion King" - the news of the abandoned project does throw the future of VR filmmaking into question.

Will Virtual Reality overcome this setback and find its niche in cinematic history? Time will tell. Follow the link below to check out the entire story.

Employers: Don't Get Sidelined by a Social Security Switcheroo. 

Paying one's fair share of Social Security is a core component of any employer's federal tax responsibility. Both employers and employees pay a portion of Social Security and Medicare taxes, providing for both supplemental income and health coverage once an employee reaches an eligible age.

An employer's overall FICA expenses could potentially change in 2019, however, as a result of a projected hike in the Social Security wage cap.

Failure to comply with such changes could prove costly, or even elicit criminal charges.
Changes are on the Way - Are You Ready?

Maslow Media Group understands that tax laws are a moving target. Each year brings adjustments and amendments, and those not keeping a close eye on the ledger could ultimately face some severe penalties.

As your Employer of Record, MMG will help your company navigate compliance pitfalls, ranging from FICA obligations, to IRS guidelines regarding W2 and 1099 labor, ACA, mandated sick leave, and much more.
