Pre Production

The client provides us with strategic information through our pre-production discussion and questionnaires.

We provide pre-production guidelines, setup time lines, and on-location requirements.

We help our clients prepare for the video shoot. We answer any questions to make sure they feel ready.

Production

We arrive at the client’s site for equipment set up. Equipment can range from one camera and a tripod to additional lights and a teleprompter.

The client signs a release form.

The client is fitted with a small wireless microphone.

The client will spend up to 30 min recording a casual yet strategically directed conversation. We can provide a teleprompter for conversation support.

We offer a raw video review on-site for overall visual check.

Post Production

We edit the raw footage into a "rough cut message". This draft will show the segments we plan to use in the video.

We present the client with a link to access and comment on the rough-cut message.

The client approves the message. Or if needed, we make requested adjustments to the rough-cut message.

Once the rough-cut message is approved, we transform the rough cut into powerful marketing web video.

We present the client with a link to access the finished video for final approval.

Delivery

After the final approval, we create the requested online video file formats, sizes and qualities.

The client is invoiced for the remaining amount due and the collection of online video files is delivered to the client.

The video session can take place almost anywhere. For example at the client’s site or at a film studio or both. Sometimes it can be tricky and time consuming to find the right location for the project, but we absolutely enjoy helping with location scouting.

We currently provide 4 options:

1. You get a download link to download your .MOV video file
2. We upload your video into your YouTube account
3. We upload your video into any other video hosting site (i.e. Vimeo)

Streaming, file formats and video delivery options can be overwhelming. With our extensive background of 28+ years in high-tech we can format your video into any size and file container, using any common video codec with any quality setting you may desire.

We help ensure our HD web videos will play properly in any environment.

Typically we deliver videos in high quality H.264 .MOV file format using high quality AAC sound or we upload it to YouTube. In YouTube our videos are available in 360, 480, 720HD and 1080HD formats.
