Some people just call it "videography" but video production is so much more than just showing up with a camera on the day. In fact, it's an assemblage of processes that includes:​
Discovery
This stage is about discovery and conceptualization. What are your needs? What is the story? Who are the characters? What are the desired outcomes? We'll work with you to design a solution that gets you a return on your investment.
Pre-production
This stage is about writing the script or treatment, lining up the people, designing the approach, designing the art to put in front of the camera (sets, etc.) and finding those perfect locations to set your production against. Scheduling and planning is key here.
Principle Photography
This is the shoot. It involves crew, equipment, releases, locations, talent, food, transport, lighting, sound, hair, make-up - all the fun stuff.
Post-production
Post-production begins with transferring, logging and binning the digital assets in prep for the edit. Then the editor roughs out, then refines the story, adding music, sound effects, voice over and visuals to tell the story. Client feedback refines the edit. Finally the film is colour graded, sound mixed, closed captions are added, different versions are created and the masters are output and uploaded.
