We don’t wing it—and we don’t waste your time.

A great video starts long before we hit record. We’ve built a process that’s collaborative, transparent, and designed to make sure what we film actually fits the story you need to tell. Here’s how it works:

Getting Started

Discovery Call

Where we listen and ask the right questions.

A short, intentional conversation to get a feel for your story, goals, timeline, and audience. You don’t need to have it all figured out—this call gets us aligned.

Creative Proposal + Budget Plan

Your project, scoped out and shaped.

After the call, we’ll send a proposal that outlines:

  • Creative direction + story framework

  • Production overview

  • Rough timeline

  • Basic budget range

This becomes our shared starting point.

Contract + Deposit

Making it official.

Once the proposal’s approved, we’ll send over a simple contract and 50% deposit invoice. When that’s in, your project goes on our calendar and we’re off to the races.

Pre-Production (The Most Important Phase)

This is where your story takes real shape. The more in depth we plan here, the better—and more efficient—the rest of the process becomes. Pre-production is where we lock in the creative vision, structure the shoot, and eliminate guesswork in post.

Includes:

  • Story development + scripting (if needed)

  • Interview prep and talking point guides

  • Location scouting

  • Logistics: crew, travel, gear, timing

  • Production schedule

  • Shot planning

  • Optional: pre-interviews or research calls

Production (Shoot Day)

This is the part people picture when they think “video production”—but it’s actually the easiest part if we’ve done the work up front. We keep our crew lean and our energy grounded so we can focus on real moments, great light, and honest performances.

Includes:

  • On-location filming

  • Professional lighting and sound

  • Interview + b-roll capture

  • Drone footage (FAA-certified)

  • Clear direction that keeps it real

  • Respect for time, people, and place

Post-Production + Delivery

In post, we shape the footage into something that hits—visually, emotionally, and strategically. You’ll review rough cuts and give feedback before we finalize everything for launch.

Includes:

  • Story-first editing

  • Sound mix + music

  • Color grading

  • Captions if needed

  • Final delivery in formats for web, social, or internal use

Optional Add-Ons

Want More Than One Edit?

We can structure your shoot to create multiple pieces—short social clips, trailers, vertical cuts, internal versions. If you need more mileage, we’ll plan for that from the start.
