Production Process

Initial Consultation

First, we need to meet you, find out about your business and listen to what you want to achieve. We can then advise you on the best way to serve your needs, whether your budget is large or small.

We can help you get the most out of the video footage we shoot for you by not only creating a DVD but also supplying a web video for your website and intranet, a podcast, broadcasting your messages on the worldwide web, or you may want to email the video to certain clients.

When you are happy with the production outline we can give you an idea of costing.

Pre-Production

Next we plan a script - or, if required, a storyboard - working with you to ensure key messages are included, also things like locations, photos, graphics, and animations. We also source the music for the video and deal with all the copyright issues.

We'll discuss with you the style of presentation, whether it's high impact and fast paced or more serious and refined.

Do you want one of our presenters to front your video and provide a voiceover? You may want your Chief Executive to front the film, if so, we can help them feel at ease in front of the camera and get their message just right.

Finally we work out a filming schedule, produce a risk assessment (we will work closely with you re: health and safety) and agree on a date when we are going to edit and deliver the video.

Final costing is agreed.

Production

This is where we film everything and make all the graphics and animations required for the video using our creativity and technical expertise.

Remember we know how to get your company messages across in seconds, in an engaging, informative and entertaining way.

Post Production

This is a very important part of the creative process where an editor expertly pulls all the elements together (video footage, graphics to reflect your corporate style, music and voice over in a state of the art edit suite.

You can keep across this exciting process via our secure client access facility on this website. We can keep you informed as we reach each stage in post production so that you are up to date on its progress without having to leave your office!

Once you are happy with the final video, we can then deliver it in various formats - DVD, Web video, podcast or email file.
