It then takes these short videos, puts them together and loops them into one 6 second video.<\/p>\n<p>Short and sweet are these videos but can I just say they are some of the most creative videos I&#8217;ve seen.

So, if as a company you are able to use a 6 second video to help someone with a problem they are having then you will be come superman in their eyes.

Make sure you define your story and the end goal before you start your mini production. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, and it&#8217;s still okay to be spontaneous and have your only goal set to just having fun. As a consumer I love to see brands just being real and having fun.
