In The Beginning
Praxis Media Group was founded by Mike Jansen in May of 2000. Mike began his journey in the communications field in 1988 when he ran into a college classmate who talked Mike into doing a voice over for a video project. Mike put a demo tape together and began his voice over career. Mike left his job selling long distance telephone services in May of 1990 to pursue a full-time career in voice overs and now on-camera talents for television commercials and corporate training videos. In October of 1990 Mike took a job with an audio and video production company as a salesman and over time evolved his role into a producer, guiding projects to completion.
Mike officially formed Praxis Media Group in May of 2000 to produce his own projects as well as producing electronic media for many clients under the Praxis umbrella. In 2004, Mike teamed up with Dan T. Hall, writer/producer/director, to act in and produce and independent feature film, “EZ Money”. Since it’s inception, Praxis Media Group has produced quality content for American Trans Air, Finish Line, United Way of Central Indiana, Indianapolis Colts, Indiana High School Athletic Association, Wishoo/Toyota to name a few. Mike also continues as a voice talent including the stadium announcer for the Indianapolis Colts as well as video production for the foundations of Peyton Manning, Gary Brackett and Marlin Jackson.
And Everything Changed
When I started in video production in 1990 there were roughly 10 production companies in Indianapolis and video was expensive. As technology evolved the cost to produced video has fallen considerably. You can now run up to Best Buy and get a digital video camera with included software and now you are a “Producer”. There is so much video being produced today and so many outlets on the web to showcase videos. Technology keeps accelerating in all areas of video creation and distribution, creating an exciting environment to produce and distribute video.
The Difference
What I have seen with the video revolution is a lack of good story telling. Many individuals have mastered the motion graphics features of video editing software and are able to produce stunning video. There is a place for that however many of the video productions today lack emotion and good story telling, truly an art. I once showed a prospective client some of my work including a piece for United Way of Central Indiana. She stood up and walked around the conference room and said we just spent X dollars with X production company and it is missing “that”. I asked what and she said, “emotion”. That was kind of a defining moment for me since that is what I look for in each project. Contact me today to discuss video production for your organization. Thank you. Mike Jansen
