  • Walport Videos

    Has anyone got any experience and opinions on Walport videos?

    A bit of leading question, but we have just received some at considerable expense and I'm not particularly impressed.

    I've seen a few in the past and I didn't think they were all that great. I personally prefer VOD as it's all interactive but then so is Seagull.

    It's all down to what you want to spend...
    I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.....

      Not used Wallport for years, they all seemed to have been filmed in the 80's and earlier, the VOD was not bad, but the enclosed sace entry one was mental.....the man with the ak-47 inside the tank......and they say the drugs dont work!!!!!!

      Anyway all Seagul here now, not that I have time to do anything with it, but thats a different issue
      Trust me I'm a Chief.

      Views expressed by me are mine and mine alone.
      Yes I work for the big blue canoe company.
      No I do not report things from here to them as they are quite able to come and read this stuff for themselves.

        Oh dear god. I went on a course a couple of month ago and they did dip into Enclosed Space Entry and this video was shown again....

        I walked out at the point as I can't watch it anymore. I've seen that video more times than I can count....

            With walport I've found the videos lacking in content, very poorly put together (I.e amateurish), added comedy and acting that is so ridiculous it upstages the important safety aspects, stereotypical sexist/racist prejudices and all of this at considerable cost per DVD. Seriously, how do they get away with it and what planet are they on.

            We considered videotel, but whilst we have an unlimited budget for the safety DVDs, having a subscription isn't an option.

              Did you actually get them from Walport or from Ruwi?

                Just looked at their website. ?195 for a 14 minute DVD? Wow.

                  Haha, they could probably do a better job in Ruwi, and now that's saying something.
