CAID PRODUCTIONS *** Viral Video and Independent Film Production

As the year is nearing a close, we wanted to share some of our highlights.

Understanding the needs and suffering of someone else is likely the most common experience we have faced in the past few years since our economy took a turn downward.  Most Americans, either rich or poor, celebrate purchases if they are compelled to give with a charitable contribution.  Befitting is our latest online Lands’ End campaign along with television commercial.  Its relatability stems from both touching moments and the music’s fluidity, yet through our work, Land’s Ends’ coat drive brought large crowds to its stores for its presence in standing for a cause and personalized touch points.   In demonstrating our interest in bringing the user closer to his or her own comfort level, we created apps on facebook and twitter to help spread the message with the individual choosing their choice medium. 

We hoped that by taking baby steps to improve the direction of the campaign with a user friendly experience, the collaboration would have proved successful, and it has. 

At Caid Productions, most of our integration has involved personalization, the essence of our popularity over the course of past few years come from Fortune 500 companies affording us the luxury to take risks all along meeting there demands.

On or off the field, they look fantastic. Like it or not, come next Saturday, the French team of COPA NYC will defiantly play against some of the World’s best athletes. Team Captain Frederick Lesort better be vigilant. As he led the team during Sunday’s friendly against Kojo Annan's Team Ghana ( son of Kofi Annan ), Frederick demonstrated their competitive edge. “Fred” seemed measured as he thought out his practice match against Ghana. And, although it was just a fun match, France's strength carried them to tie the game. Kojo, on the other hand, gave an initial pep talk to his team then allowed them to play as hard as if they planned to win every single friendly. Ghana perpetuated a considerable amount… Continue reading

Caid Productions has designed and helped promote Shustir.com's business by creating an animation presentation video to accompany the launch of thier website as well as currently developing a viral video… Continue reading
