PRICING & PROCESS

Our Video Production Process & Services

​

Every filming project follows three core stages: Pre-Production, Filming, and Post-Production. While the framework stays consistent, no two projects—or clients—are ever the same. Our approach is highly strategic, collaborative, and tailored to your specific goals.

 

1. Project Kickoff & Scheduling

Once the budget is finalized—or tentatively aligned based on an approved initial concept or overall direction—we lock in the production date (s), formalize an agreement, and transition into pre-production. This ensures a clear roadmap, aligned expectations, and a smooth production timeline from start to finish.

 

2. Pre-Production: Strategy, Planning & Creative Development

Pre-production is where the foundation for a successful project is built. This phase is critical—it’s where strategy meets creativity.

 

Video Concept Development & Strategy

We begin by sitting down with you to understand your objectives, audience, and distribution strategy. No two clients are the same.

• Some projects benefit from high-end commercials designed for traditional broadcast, YouTube, livestream platforms, or out-of-home placements.

• Others perform best as vertical social-first videos, often structured as episodic or mini-series content with strong hooks and retention-driven storytelling.

Every creative decision—format, pacing, length, and visual style—is guided by how and where the content will live. All of this feeds directly into the ideation and concept development process.

 

Pre-Production Planning Includes:

• C reative treatments and/or scriptwriting

• Storyboarding and shot lists

• Budgeting and scheduling

• Hiring a professional crew

• Casting talent

• Location scouting and permitting

• Booking equipment and rentals

• Production design and art direction

• Set builds, wardrobe, hair, and makeup

 

Casting

We take casting seriously. For every project, we distribute casting calls across multiple networks and work directly with trusted casting directors. This often results in hundreds—sometimes thousands—of submissions.

• We curate and present a semi-final talent shortlist aligned with your casting needs

• Clients select finalists for auditions

• Final talent is chosen collaboratively

• Backup talent is always secured—because life happens

This ensures reliability, flexibility, and peace of mind on shoot days.

 

Locations

During pre-production, we present a curated selection of locations that best serve the concept, brand identity, and budget. From urban interiors to large-scale exteriors, we handle all scouting, negotiations, and logistics.

 

3. Filming & Directing: Bringing the Vision to Life

This is where everything comes together. Under the guidance of the director, cast and crew work in sync to execute the vision efficiently and creatively.

 

Shoot Days

• Most short-form projects (commercials, music videos, web content) are completed in one to two shoot days

• Larger productions (TV and film) may span weeks or months, depending on scope

 

Maximizing Production Value

One of our biggest differentiators is efficiency. We design productions to capture multiple deliverables in a single shoot, maximizing your budget and dramatically lowering the cost per asset—without compromising quality.

 

Professional Crew

Each project requires a specialized team. A commercial shoot differs greatly from a music video, corporate production, or vertical social campaign.

We work with a network of 200+ vetted creative professionals, assembling the perfect crew for each project, including:

• Directors of Photography

• Camera operators & lighting technicians

• Sound mixers

• Art department & prop masters

• Hair, makeup & wardrobe

• Special effects teams

• Specialized vehicle operators & custom camera rigs

Every role is selected based on the project’s unique needs.

 

Production Design

Production design is what gives your project its visual identity. We ensure every environment, prop, and detail aligns seamlessly with your brand.

• Location-based design enhancements

• Custom-built sets from the ground up

• Strategic use of art direction to elevate production value

Even small design choices can make a significant impact—and we know how to use them effectively.

 

Location Management & Permits

With deep experience in Los Angeles and New York City, we specialize in securing both common and hard-to-get locations.

• Beaches, deserts, forests, mountains, urban landscapes, and studios

• Expedited and last-minute permits (often secured in under 10 business days)

• Highly accommodating for fast turnaround and smaller productions

We manage every logistical detail so your shoot runs smoothly.

 

4. Post-Production: Crafting the Final Film

We offer full post-production in-house, allowing us to maintain quality, consistency, and speed.

 

Post-Production Services Include:

• Video editing

• Color grading

• Skin retouching

• Sound design & mixing

• Music composition and licensing

We typically deliver a first cut within one week of filming, allowing for a streamlined and fast revision process until the final version is approved and ready for release.

 

CGI, VFX & Motion Graphics

We offer advanced CGI, visual effects, and motion graphics, including AI-powered CGI workflows.

• Seamless visual effects integration

• Branded motion graphics

• High-end CGI enhancements

You can view examples of this work here.

 

5. Delivery, Distribution & Advertising

Once the final cut is approved, your project is ready to be released into the world. We deliver assets optimized for their intended platforms—whether broadcast, digital, social, livestream, or out-of-home—ensuring your content performs where it matters most.

​

Beyond delivery, we can also help connect you with the right agencies and partners to ensure your content is distributed effectively. From digital marketing and livestreaming to traditional advertising outlets such as television and out-of-home, we help guide the strategy so your video campaign is positioned for maximum reach, relevance, and real-world impact.
