The past monts I have been working with a movie company called Novemberfilm here in Norway, where we have started to make som short presentation movies for some of our products. I have uploaded them to a company account for a trial period. They will be available (in HD as well) on youtube for a few weeks to get feedback from employees and customers.

please leave any comments here if you have, positive or negative, or questions that we may embed in the video

you can see the videos here

They're pretty cool, especially the freefall lifeboat

And they show quite nicely the products' abilities

did you sit in one of these freefall boats ??

I imagine on this flat sea it's maybe fun, rollercoaster style.... but beeing in this nutshell during a storm ....

people will vomit all over the cabin

i thought of your company this week with the stories of the captured American boat captain. the lifeboat they were on sort of looked like those boats you posted earlier (to me anyway).

looks like some pretty professional videos.

Very good optical.....
Not too crazy about the music thow.

What if you mute it a bit, put in som technical spec on the boats, like bulding materials and some company historie.

Som close ups of the boat out of the water could also be interesting.

very nice thomas, the hd movies with the blue sea and the sun are beautyful, the music could be better, but everyone has to like it.

the audio will mostly never be on anyway. it is some weird un-copyrighted music, but we are not usually allowed to use audio on exhibitons where these videos (among others) will loop in the backgroun on the stand.

Wow good idea. I think this is a really good marketing tool when done properly and you obviously have. These video have high production value and are cool to watch just for the fun of it!

Holy shit! That vid is awesome Thomass!

Looks like new after burning like hell!

I have been at it again with a cameracrew, making some presentation vids for exhibitions.
These boats are made for the Australian Customs Serivice. If you have watched the tv series "Whale Wars" on Discovery Channel, Animal Planet or National Geographic Channel, the chanse is that you have seen these boats before, only in orange colour. They just took delivery of 4 more boats, and ordered 2 more as well when they visited us here in Norway.

The Magnum 850 TwinJet has twin Yanmar 315hp engines with twin Hamilton HJ241 waterjets. The Magnum 750 has a single Yanmar 315hp engine and single Hamilton HJ241 waterjet. They are in this specifiaction good for 40+ knots. In basically any seastate.

These boats belong in a series we have called "Norsafe Profesional Boats", especially targeted at Navy, Coast Guard, Border Police, SEAL operations, SBS, etc..

It is the most fun rollercoaster ever!! I haven't done it from the massive heigts of 30,40 or 50m, but it is hilarious! Scary as hell just before, and then usually the entire crew laughs their ass of after

here's a clip someone made from the inside
