Here’s a quick overview of how we work.
Idea
Our video production process starts with a basic idea. A part of the pre-production phase; ideation is where the story for the video is created with possible ways of execution.
Audience research
Once the basic idea is formed, it is time to conduct thorough audience research to find out what the audience likes. This gives a clearer picture of the best way possible to execute the story.
Data analytics
Next, we carry out a proper analysis of the gathered audience data as well as feasibility data to further map out our execution strategy.
Creative development
Now for the interesting part; once the numbers are worked out and fixed, it is time to start production. Our talented creative heads get together to brainstorm the creative aspects of the video at this stage.
Scripting
A great story naturally calls for a winning script. In this stage, we work out the script for the video.
Storyboarding and shortlisting
Along with a great script, a powerful video needs a stellar storyboard. The basic story idea is already in place. In this stage, we stretch it out and shortlist the elements required to make the video more effective.
Logistics
Elements and resources required for the video are planned and sorted. Now it is time to get things moving. The logistics for production and execution are planned and implemented in this stage. We also do some location scouting to find the perfect backgrounds to shoot the content.
Crewing and casting
The most important elements of the video are of course the crew and cast, as they play a big role in how the video turns out for the public eye. After planning and sourcing the creative elements of the video we set out to find the best talent for your video.
Booking kit
After finalizing the cast and crew, the dates are fixed, the locations and other elements are booked and the crew prepares for the shoot.
Filming
Time for the most exciting part of video creation: the filming process. The story is filmed over the planned number of days according to the script and storyboard in this stage.
Final cut
Now we get into post-production processes. The filmed reels are edited in this stage and the required creative elements are added to form the entire video. This is where all the magic happens.
Release
The video is ready for release. The masterpiece is publicly shared with the target audience according to the execution plan in this stage. Now, all we have to do is, wait for the response and then the insights.
We have professional teams working on every stage and every aspect of video production in Chicago. Their expertise and experience ensure that we get the best outcome.
