Decorating Magic’s videos are slickly produced yet paint-by-numbers simple
Decorating Magic produces a series of videos that walk the viewer literally step-by-step through creating, assembling, staging and presenting high-quality decorations, scenes and animated characters, some focused on holidays and others on brightening home and hearth year ’round. The results, on doorstep or lawn, or in various interior settings, make engaging viewing. The videos are slickly produced with a variety of sophisticated movie effects, and Decorating Magic owner Susan Paradise Wolf, who narrates the series, exudes a certain star quality even while telling us how to wire up a witch to best simulate flight. The instructions are clear, simple and practical, endearing not only for the Narrator’s cute-as-a-button charm but also because we are never left grasping at air, as we sometimes find ourselves with other instructional videos that leave us off-balance by omitting crucial steps in a process.
Thus far Decorating Magic has produced five videos in its Holiday series:
- The Best Halloween Witch Ever
- How to Make the Scariest Halloween Graveyard
- The Perfect Thanksgiving Centerpiece in a Fairy Tale Pumpkin
- How to Decorate Your Front Door and Flowers Pot for Christmas
- How to Decorate the Perfect Christmas Tree Using Wide Ribbon Garland
Decorating Magic is backed by a family’s worth of talent with serious commercial credentials. Husband Jeff Wolf, a professional cinematographer who has worked on more than 30 feature films, shoots and edits the videos, and teenaged son Thomas creates the video effects. Husband and wife previously worked together for 14 years at their film production company, which they have since sold, where Susan Paradise Wolf worked as Producer and Art Director.
Wording above (“produces;” “thus far”) is intentional because more videos are in development, and MarketBLOG will be watching them and Decorating Magic every step of the way.
