Frequently Asked Questions
01
WHAT IS CORPORATE VIDEO PRODUCTION?
Corporate video production can cover a huge array of services that we provide; from internal communication pieces to staff within companies, to explainer videos for products and services to external stakeholders, to marketing pieces that can be repurposed across the spectrum of social media – taking into account stylistic variations in each platform. Corporate video can involve professional or remote filming, stock footage, animation, graphics, voiceover, music – and frequently uses a mix of all of the above.
02
WHAT KIND BUSINESS DO YOU WORK WITH?
We work with a range of businesses in all sorts of sectors, including many household names. As directors, Tom and Rob have a combined experience of over 50 years in production and have worked with pretty much every kind of business in that time.
03
HOW MUCH INPUT DO YOU NEED FROM ME?
Essentially it’s up to each individual client how much they want to be involved. Initially we like to work with the client to make sure that the brief is clear – and as importantly, what can we do to help develop the ideas behind it? What can we add creatively? How do we communicate this to the target audience? Once we have answers to these questions we can get to work, initially delivering concepts to be approved and then into production.
04
HOW MANY ROUNDS OF AMENDS DO WE GET?
We keep going until you’re happy – but as we generally will ensure that we understand what it is you want before we go into production, we normally don’t need to do endless rounds of amends. For an animation project for example there are stages of approval – initially we deliver a written treatment with some visual references, and then a storyboard, followed by concept artwork; so that you are aware of how the project is developing at every stage of the process.
05
CAN YOU WORK WITHIN OUR TIMELINE AND BUDGET CONSTRAINTS?
Yes! We tailor each project to your budget and timeline and will always be candid about what can be achieved with the budget and time available. We like to ensure that our clients are happy, and so we always strive to come up with a creative approach that fits into your budget and deadline.
