The Pre-Production Process - Script Writing
Pre-Production is where the vision of your video is developed, outlined, and written. Once the script is approved we create a story-board, cast actors, scout locations, and schedule the crew. We do all the work with the clients' close cooperation and approval though every stage.
Film and Video Production - The shoot!
This is where most of the fun happens! Depending on the scope of the video we provide state of the art video production services, including cameras (Sony FS7 Mark II, Canon, Panasonic, DJI Mavic Pro 4K Drone), sound, lighting, teleprompter, and professional actors. We pay special attention to quality and crafting a message that promotes your product or services in a fun and entertaining way.
Post-Production - Editing, Music, Garphics
This is where the magic happens. We use the latest post-production software and hardware, including Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Photoshop, and After Effects. We also work closely with a tightly knit group of video makers and graphic artists to produce high end graphics and animation.

FAQs
You have questions;
we have answers.
What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a producer like you?
Look for good samples of work that reflect the services you are looking for. Don’t be a tire kicker. If you’re on a tight budget tell the producer upfront, and give a specific number that way you’ll be saving yourself and the producer lots of time. Much of the time, depending on the scope of work, you might be able to get a good deal. Understand that in the film business “cheaper” does not necessarily equal better. Most of the time it’s the other way around. A film production company thrives mostly by word of mouth, based on the quality of their services. Ask for a referral and a sample before making your final decision. A producer’s work is only as good as their samples.
What important information should customer have thought through before seeking you out?
The most important question you must answer for yourself before contacting a production company is the budget. What is your budget, or how much are you willing to spend (for a good return on your investment)? The higher the production value (quality) you want, the bigger the number. These production values can vary from as little as $500 to a million dollars. If you want something produced from script to screen your budget will have to include payment for development of the script (meetings), writing the script (writer), producing the film (shooting it with a full crew and equipment), and finally post-production (editing, color grading, sound mixing, quality control). This all adds up to many hours of labor and equipment, not to mention insurance, and hiring talent. The sky is the limit. The more you understand about the film production process the more bang you’ll get for your buck. Don’t be afraid to ask questions about how it all works, so that you know where your money is going.
What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right production company?
You should ask what the producer specializes in. Then ask for advice on how they would approach producing your video. This will give you an immediate idea of how professional they are in their business. You should also ask for the range of budgets they have worked with. Ask about the typical turnaround time for completion of a video project. This will depend on the type of video you want produced, and it will also give you insight on how the producer manages the delivery timeline.
