Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..”, comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
From the very first meeting with Nate and his team, they understood what we were looking for and how to creatively package our corporate training videos. With their guidance and unique vision, we were able to provide engaging educational tools for our employees. We will definitely be using Sherer Video for future corporate projects.
Every day, there is so much good taking placing in our organization—from the volunteers who unselfishly give of their time to the managers who are passionate about our mission to the grateful recipients of our work—that it was important for us to create a montage of our 30+ Years of service to the community. Nate and Denny provided us with a beautiful video highlighting our organization’s special moments throughout the years. They personalized these memories with touching interviews of volunteers, staff and community members. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!
Working with Sherer Video has been seamless. Nate truly “got it” from the beginning, which made the work on our end easier. The aerial videos that he provided, and continues to provide, are better than we could have imagined. Sherer Video takes the time to go one step further.
Our industry is extremely competitive, which makes the branding of our company so important. With the help of Sherer Video, we have been able to increase sales by successfully standing out from our competition, while continuing to effectively recruit a talented team to make it happen.
