LinkedIn Privacy Policy

When LinkedIn updated their privacy policy they enlisted the help of Beyond Pix to create a video that explains how the new policy impacts their customers. The result was a stop-motion video with a friendly tone and clear message that premiered on their blog post announcing the changes. Check out the video and take a look at some of the behind-the-scenes photos of the production.

NorCal Toyota Squaw Valley Campaign

Beyond Pix packed up the crew and traveled to Squaw Valley to help Toyota show off their Tundra, Highlander, Tacoma and 2013 Rav4 models. While ad agency Hoffman/Lewis took care of creative development and post production, they recruited Beyond Pix to help execute the shoot - including an RC Copter Cam for aerial shots.

If you live in the Bay Area, you might even recognize one of these commercials from the Super Bowl. If you missed the spots during the big game, you can check them out here.

Project Management

Our project management offering is what many of our clients celebrate the most.  We know that getting your video production through the pipeline is just one of the many tasks you have on your to-do list, so we put customer service at the top of our to-do list.  We can take on as little, or as much, of the producing tasks as you need to keep the project moving forward as quickly and efficiently as possible.  Working this way, we develop rewarding and long-term relationships with our clients.

Lorelle Strange

Creative Services Producer

Years ago a promising young talent began with us as an intern and then rose to become an Assistant Editor.  That was a “pull yourself up by the bootstrap” feat in itself, but the promise of Lorelle continues.
