Our Process
The Introduction
Once you contact us about a project, our producers will schedule a call or meeting with you to discuss your goals, your vision, your budget and your timeline. We really want to get a sense of what you are looking for and how we can be of service.
Proposal
After the initial meeting, our team will put our heads together and come up with a creative proposal for the project that includes: look + feel, tone, creative approach, a detailed timeline and a budget. We believe in the “measure twice and cut once” approach so we put a lot of time and detail into this step. A more thorough pre-production period ensures that both creative team and client are on the same page from the very beginning.
Pre-Production
After the creative proposal is accepted or refined based on feedback, we require a deposit of 50% of the total to get started. At this point, we spring into pre-production action - casting actors, securing locations, nailing down dates, creating shot lists, prepping crew etc.
Production
Our favorite part! After all the preparation is done, it’s time for the cameras to roll. Different clients prefer different levels of participation at this stage, and we customize the experience to fit your needs.
Post-Production + Delivery
Once we move into post-production, our editors will assemble a rough cut with temp music and graphics for your review. After we incorporate your notes through 3 rounds of edits, we will sweeten the audio, finalize the music and send the locked cut off to our colorist to make sure those images really pop! Then, we will invoice you for the remaining 50% and export a final cut ready for broadcast.
