Your Video Project
What to expect from here.
Please note, your input and cooperation throughout video creation process will be vital as to how quickly we can deliver for you! Now, what’s next?
Week 1: Pre-Production
1. Discovery Call
2. Script Review
3. Gathering Of Assets
Your Logo – a high quality image file preferably in PNG format (or a format which has a transparent layer). If you have different versions of your logo, go ahead and send them all to us. The more we have to work with the better.
Your “Tagline” – most businesses have a little ‘saying’ they like to put under their logo or as part of their branding. If you don’t have one, we suggest creating one (at the very least, for the purpose of your video) because it can really make the end result “pop”! As an example, our tagline is: “Web video that works.”
Font – provide the name, or details, or a copy of your preferred font (if you have one).
Specific Colours – tell us the specific colours used in your marketing, website, and print materials. Most colours have a HEX number if they are web-based colours, for example: Red is #FF0000. If you can’t get this information, we’ll try and extract the colours from your logo or other relevant company image.
Preferred Music – give us your company’s music file, or let us know what type of music you’d like featured in your video. No stress if you don’t have music or anything in mind, we’ll be able to hook you up with some cool tunes! Important Note: Please ensure the music you provide is either owned by you or ‘royalty free’ to stay in line with copyright law.
Please Note: Once your shoot has been completed, all assets and information will be required upfront to commence post-production. Once editing commences, If our team require further assets and information from you to meet project objectives, we require the necessary items be provided within 3 business days of our request, or as otherwise agreed. If our team are unable to proceed with your project’s edits as a result of tardiness in providing the required assets / information, an overdue fee may be applicable. So please be sure you provide us with everything we need when we commence your editing – we want to ensure we get your video project completed on time and on budget!
4. Here's a few things to remember for the shoot:
- Clothing: Plain block colours are best on camera (no checkers, stripes or wild patterns). Splashes of colour that match your company’s branding will also help to tie it all together. Bring a few clothing options to be safe.
- Practice, practice, practice your script/content (even if you’re going to be using a teleprompter). Practice in front of the mirror and make sure you read aloud. Reading the words in your mind isn’t beneficial. Pretend like you’re in front of the camera and give it your best performance!
Week 2: Production
A standard shoot is blocked out for 4 hours (or more, depending on you video package). In this time, yourself or a representative of your business will be filmed reading your script off our teleprompter (or working off the cuff if that’s your style!), and we’ll also be recording b-roll (overlay footage) of yourself, your workplace, and anything else that makes you and your business unique.
PLEASE NOTE: This standard 4 hour block include 30 minutes setup and 15 minutes packdown for our videographer. Which allows for 3.25 hours of actual shooting time. This also applies for an 8 hour shoot, with the addition of a minimum 30 minute lunch break for our videographer.

Week 3-4: Post-Production and Final Delivery
Once the first edit is complete; your Project Manager will send you the video where you are encouraged to suggest as many changes as you’d like. Be sure to leave detailed feedback so that we can make the video exactly to your liking. The quicker you supply us your feedback, the sooner we can deliver your final video, which is usually 2-3 days (depending on staff availability) after we receive your notes. Please note that only one round of changes is included in your video package, any changes beyond that will include additional fees, so be sure to be all-inclusive with your comments.
Once the second edit is complete and is to your liking, our Accounts Coordinator will send through your final 50% invoice, and once that’s been paid, your Project Manager will be in touch with a downloadable link to your final video!
And like that, our work is complete and you’re in possession of an amazing video that’ll serve your business well for many years to come. Who thought something so amazing could take such little time?
Other things you need to know
Preparation & Scripting Tips
Have a think; what are you doing all this for? What would you like to achieve with these videos? By thinking about the end result first, you’ll find it naturally paves the way to the right style and content to achieve your goal.
Know your audience
Who are the videos aimed at? If it’s a 60 year old business man, then funny gags might not be the right way to keep his attention. Mentally create an “avatar” (your ideal viewer) for this video. For example, “my ideal customer is a mid-forties, stay-at-home mum, with three kids and a pool.”
It’s not about you
Say what? Yeah, we know, but this is a really key point to get your head around. The most effective videos out there are ones that focus on what the potential customer wants, and what you and your business can do for them.
Simplify the message
One of the reasons you’ll get viewers is because it’s easier to watch a video than read text. Compound that with the fact everyone’s busy nowadays (so you don’t get their attention for very long), means the “less is more” motto will do wonders for your video.
