All Video – All The Time is not in the future, it is happening now. What had been a web news group is now a video production unit. What had been a print publication with a website becomes an indie television network. What had been a blog becomes a vlog. The consumer is expecting to see all-video all the time and all companies, big and small, from an in-house corporate communications team to a giant magazine conglomerate; from a school newspapaer to a TV network are going to have to think in terms of multi-platform video 24/7 if they wish to break through the crowd and serve their customer base. All-video all the time is a challenge but it may also be the most exciting hurdle the technology industry has created yet.
