With the world headed toward cross-platform advertising (i.e., digital + print + broadcast + digital + digital), any investment in marketing artwork will soon require both still images and motion pieces from the same production.
Clients will be doing fewer and fewer still-only photo shoots, or just shooting 30 second spots on their own. Now they will need a range of creative material for the increasing range of marketing channels.
Increasingly these distribution channels for the artwork will be digital. And digital channels crave both still and moving images, often together, but certainly each in various contexts.
The most valuable resource on a shoot is time. There’s never enough of it. And now doing two things (stills and motion) in the production, time just got even more scarce.
