FAQ
I’ve heard it all. Here’s everything you need to before working me.
How long does a typical project take?
The timeline depends on the project scope, but most projects are completed within 2–6 weeks. We’ll provide a detailed schedule during the initial consultation.
What services do you offer?
We specialise in: - Commercials - Brand videos, - Promotional videos - Social Media Content - Training/Explainer Videos - Case Studies/Testimonial Videos. If there’s something you have in mind that isn’t listed, get in touch - we’d love to see if it’s something we can create for you.
What’s the onboarding process like?
Great question! Once you sign with us, we take you through a structured process: Initial Consultation – We define the project's objectives and goals, align with your brand’s vision, and determine the best style and tone for your video. Pre-Production – Once the brief is locked in, we handle industry and audience research, concept development, storyboarding, scripting, location scouting, and talent coordination. Production & Post-Production – We guide you through the entire process, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
Do you provide ongoing support after a project is completed?
Absolutely! Post project support is something we get asked about often. Whether you need updates, minor tweaks, or major changes, we’re here to ensure everything runs smoothly.
How much does a video cost?
Great question! But asking how much a video costs is a bit like asking, "How much does a house cost?" It depends on several factors. Just like a house’s price varies based on location, size, materials, and finishes, the cost of a video depends on length, complexity, crew, location, production quality, and storytelling level. Whether you need a simple, one-camera shoot or a high-end commercial with actors, locations, and animations, we tailor each project to fit your goals and budget. Get in touch, and we’ll work with you to create something impactful within your price range. But to give you an answer: Narrative Commercials start around $10,000 - $15,000; Brand Videos start around $5,000 and Social Media content sits more in the ~$1,000 range depending on the amount of content needed.
Can you work within my specific budget?
Yes, absolutely! We’ll meet you in the middle by priortising the most important components of the video so you can still receive a high quality product tailored to your specific needs.
Do you offer project revisions during the process?
Yes! We include three (3) rounds of revisions in post-production, though most of our clients are satisfied with just one.
How do we get started on a project?
Simply contact us with details about your project, and we’ll schedule a consultation. From there, we’ll discuss your ideas, goals, and the best approach to bring your vision to life.
Do you provide actors, or do we have to find them?
We provide actors unless agreed otherwise. If there’s a limited budget, we can discuss alternative solutions. This also depends on how long you plan to air the content and the scale of the production/your business.
What’s the difference between a corporate video and an ad?
A corporate video is designed to inform, educate, or showcase an aspect of your business, often for internal use, recruitment, or client engagement. An advertisement (ad), on the other hand, has a specific marketing goal, usually brand awareness or direct response, and is structured to grab attention fast, often within 30 seconds or less. You probably won’t find a corporate video playing in the cinema before the movie starts - those are usually ads and TV commercials. If you’re unsure what’s best for you, reach out - we’ll help you decide.
How do we optimise a video for different platforms?
We’ll work with you to understand where your content will be used, whether that’s social media, TV, or your website. Once we know your distribution platforms, we’ll shoot and edit the content to be optimised for each one, ensuring maximum impact.
