Make Video People Trust ⎹ The Beauty of Business ep. 24 ⎹ Will George
This episode is a practical blueprint for brand video that people actually believe. We break down where AI helps—storyboards, pre-viz, faster approvals—and where humans win: credibility, emotion, and on-camera proof. You’ll learn how smaller, multi-skill crews speed up production without losing quality; why real customer testimonials beat templated spots; and the revision guardrails that keep momentum (lock music early, limit rounds, stick to a clear decision maker). We also cover cadence and repurposing: plan one thoughtful shoot, then slice it into dozens of assets that feed your channels for weeks. If you want video that ships faster, performs better, and still feels human, start here. A DEUS Marketing podcast.

How Cognitive Science Builds Category of One Brands ⎸ The Beauty of Business ep. 20 ⎹ Ella Pamment
A DEUS Marketing podcast. Cognitive science meets brand strategy. In this episode, Ella Pamment, founder of thebitecreative, breaks down how scripts, schemas, and prototypicality can help you “break the script” without confusing your audience and build a true category‑of‑one brand. We get practical about culture curation, pop-ups and OOH, social content that prioritizes quality over quantity, and how to avoid the classic pitfalls of disruption done wrong. In this episode, you’ll learn: 💜 What scripts and schemas are, and how they shape customer expectations. 💜 How “secondary prototypicality” lets you stand out while staying recognizable. 💜 A DIY research framework you can run before your next launch. 💜 Ella’s research workflow: 1–2 weeks, 3–5 direct competitors, plus 10–50 adjacent brands to map the market. 💜 Why culture curation, tactile brand moments, and smart OOH drive belonging and shareability. 💜 The danger of “quantity over quality” and how to build content that actually converts. 💜 Lessons from rebrands that missed the mark and how to avoid them.
