The reporter made it sound like this would be a special edition to the news. I was expecting a 5- to 7-minute in-depth study of the real estate market in Sacramento. Especially since filming took a solid 45 minutes.
Not surprisingly, it turned out to be a 1:51 minute video. But at least he backed off from his original premise and ran with the real story of Sacramento foreclosures.

The expert they need to guide them through the the Short sale process. Nice Video.
I enjoyed the video for the sunshine alone!
Elizabeth - For some reason, I couldn't listen to it. :( I'm sure it was good, though! :) I'll keep trying... :)
Well Ms. Elizabeth (Not Paula), aren't you amazed how many minutes of video and interview can go on to produce so little output acceptible for viewing? The only other thing I know of that works in that way, is digital animations, where it takes hundreds of man-hours, to create a small animated segment. You still did great however! You can tell Paula I said so:-)
Elizabeth: Great job, even though the news station obviously sliced and diced what you said. Was great to hear your voice!
Elizabeth - I had to scroll some to find your video - It appearantly gets shoved along as they load on other ones. Hey, in the world of marketing, all exposure is good.
Good job, Elizabeth, and you look cute!
Great to see an expert quoted for a change.
Whoa, Sally, I'm gonna have to change my copy then so people can find it before it disappears . . .
Thanks, Wendy -- I could have not talked so fast, but if you don't talk fast, they cut your appearance. 2 minutes on TV is a lifetime in TV land.
I'm so happy, Myrl, that you haven't mistaken me for somebody else, LOL.
Thanks for your comments, everybody!
Elizabeth - congrats on the exposure! What a great opportunity for you as well as your clients. Keep up the good work Elizabeth. :)
Great job, the media lost on this one. But, don't feel bad. They do this to everyone!
I'm behind and I couldn't find it. Was it only up for a day or so? I wanna see it.
Hi Barbara: I found it. Go to the box where the 4 videos are shown in the middle of the page. In the search box below, type: "cheap homes for sale," and the video will come up. Then click on that video. Voila.
