How video benefits you
Why Videotape Depositions?
To capture the visual aspects of a person as they are speaking. Allow a judge or
jury to hear voice inflections, see physical gestures, and so many other non-verbal
cues which cannot be conveyed on paper.
Juries lose interest quickly when listening to someone read a transcript. With video,
a jury is more engaged and can actually see the deponent. With a transcript, a jury
can not hear inflection in a voice or see facial expressions. Sometimes jury
members can drift off and completely miss parts of a deposition transcript.
Watching a video can help people pay attention and actually hear what is being said.
Or maybe you need a professional testimony from someone that charges a large
fee to personally appear in court. You can take a video deposition of that person for
a fraction of the cost of a court appearance.
You may have a witness in a life threating condition and you want to get their
testimony in case they pass away before your case goes to trial. In the same way
an elderly person that may not live long enough to appear in court can have their
testimony recorded and forever saved as part of an official record.
Video deposition companies are among the fastest growing industries in the law
community across the country. Many forward thinking attorneys have all of their
depositions recorded to video because they realize the benefit of the service.

About Me
My name is Kent Heckman. I am a Certified Legal Video Specialist through the
National Court Reporters Association of which I am a member. I have been
recording and editing video professionally for over 5 years, hold a degree in video
production from Middle Tennessee State University and have numerous credits on
national television and radio programs.
Many legal media services are not certified and do not understand the local and
federal rules and procedures that govern the taking of a video deposition. If you hire
someone that is not certified, you run the risk of legal complications due to a
technicality of which the person was not aware. I record and edit depositions in
compliance with Tenn. R. Civ. P. 30.02 and Fed. R. Civ. P. 30(b).
