The hottest month of the year also marks the wind down of summer: August. After a long day in the sun, remember that Peppershock can add a little energy and life to your business.
We would like to wish the best of luck to our two summer interns, John Brassey, and Allison Roberts. They were an enormous asset over the summer months, and thier talents will be greatly missed. Any future employer will be very lucky to have either John or Allison as part of their team!
On that note, we are currently searching for new interns. This is a great opportunity for any student seeking real life experience. Please contact us at 208-461-5070!
The Peppershock Advantage
We employ our own in-house design and production staff, which means lower costs, faster turn around time, and better quality control. Lower costs means more money for other aspects of the advertising/marketing initiative, i.e. media buys etc…
At Peppershock we pride ourselves on customer service. Part of that service is that we won’t let you haphazardly throw money at a problem. Let us use our industry expertise to deliver a professional, cost-effective solution that satisfies all parties involved.

SWITCH to HD VIDEO
If you aren’t already aware, by February 2009 all television transmission signals will be digital. Although you will still be able to shootyour commercials in standard definition, you may want to consider switching to HD video.
As opposed to standard definition,high definition video has more longevity as standard definition phases out, and, because HD video contains five to ten times more data than standard definition, your image will be significantly sharper. Peppershock has the tools and capabilities to shoot in HD, and we do so on a regular basis. There is a common misconception that because an HD file is much larger than a standard definition file, you cannot use it on your website. In fact, you can use video shot in HD in the same way that you would use standard definition video, with the added benefit of a more clear picture. With the rapid growth in technology that characterizes today’s world, moving to HD video helps your business stay on the cutting edge.
