Pre-Production

Whether you’re doing a commercial, film production, or music video, strategic planning makes for great results. Before we start shooting a video we need to know your goals and develop a plan. This stage is the most important because it covers areas such as:

  • Story Development/Storyboarding

  • Budgeting

  • Research

  • Scripting

  • Crew

  • Casting

  • Scheduling

  • Audio Recording

  • Directing

  • Crew Management

  • Logistics

Open computer with hard drive for video editing

Post-Production

This is where the magic happens. Tasks like color grading, sound design, and video editing are some of our favorite parts of the process because they’re what makes the difference between a good video and a great video. Our post-production team is skilled in:

  • Color Grading & Color Correction

  • Sound Design & Mastering

  • Editing

  • Music Licensing

  • Captions

  • Titles & Graphics

Creative Development

Tell us what type of video you’d like to make and we’ll create a plan from script to screen that’s based on your vision and goals.

With a commitment to creativity and a passion for story telling, we can make your brand and projects stand out.

Ok, but…

  • Knowing your intentions when you step on set saves both time and resources. as well as enables the fastest turnaround times and the most cohesive vision.

  • A great location can often be what sets your video apart. It’s important for us to find the right space before we start shooting, so location scouting is a key part of our pre-production process.

  • Yes. We have a vast network of relationships we’ve built over the years and we will not only travel but we can build a team that’s ready and willing to go anywhere in the world.

  • Good question! Next!

All of this, anywhere.

Whether it’s filming on a skateboard through New York City, in the bush of Africa, or down the road in Central Illinois - we’ve done it. We are stoked about the opportunity to partner with you, wherever that takes us.
