tweak Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 You mean a "Portfolio"? I live in Poland a bit of the time so I'm trying hard to decipher what you mean . Or maybe I miss understood and you just mean a "video invitation". If it's an invitation for a party and it's a video that is what I would call it. Or as you said "personal video invitation" is also correct. It just depends what you want to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bacle Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 In france we call that an After-movie but that is quite a bad way of defining an after-party movie IMO as it's not much of a movie, but more like a short report. (Or maybe I didn't get your exact question, as I am not a native english speaker myself) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tweak Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yes then "Film Invitation" or "Movie Invitation" also makes sense. But hard to say 100% without seeing the context it is in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trek of Joy Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 From your short description, video invitation makes the most sense to me. I think using film or movie confuses things, because if I'm reading things correctly, its not a film or movie. Keep it simple and to the point, you can use other terms for SEO, but if you're offering to shoot video invitations for people, that's what I would call it. Good luck.

hyalinejim Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 "Invite" is also used informally as a noun that means "invitation". Video invite sounds better to me than video invitation. Jacek and kaylee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Are these portfolios or literally videos that invite someone to an event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally videos that invite someone to an event. For example: I offer video with your face inviting your friends to come to your wedding/party on 11.12.2016 at hotel President in Paris.

Video invite sounds better to me than video invitation. That is what I meant. I don't see differences and don't want to finish with strange title or title inviting someone to cinema ?. I wasn't considering terms like 'invite' or 'vids' before. Now it looks like mycompany.com/invitevids or mycompany.com/videoinvite should offer 'Video invites' instead of 'film invitations'..

Jacek Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 May be also "Invite video clips" or "Video invite clips"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with @hyalinejim that 'invite' sounds better than 'invitation'.... what i really want is a synonym for invitation~! and i cant think of one~! i would also suggest having a fairly illustrative element in your logo more or less explaining what the business does the general public's lack of video terminology knowledge combined with a dearth of synonyms for 'invitation' makes this a little challenging Jacek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
