The one-minute video shows Bernie's frustrations with traditional video conferencing; either trying in vain to use expensive equipment, or huddling around a webcam while the audio annoyingly cuts out. If only Bernie’s company had chosen BlinkPipe ...
Dave Gwilt, co-founder of BlinkPipe, explains, “We wanted an entertaining yet simple video that explains why BlinkPipe is different. Bernie shows that with BlinkPipe, you walk in, sit down, and dial. That’s it. No more “Can you hear me?” moments, huddling around a webcam, or IT support needed.”
The BlinkPipe team worked in collaboration with animator, James Kerr of Kerrupt Animation to develop the video. James specialises in stop motion animation and has worked with the BBC, Channel 5 and MTV.
The short video is well worth a watch, so check it out and let us know what you think @BlinkPipe.
