How We Work
How we put a production together.
Every project starts with a conversation about what you're trying to achieve, not just the deliverable, but the feeling you want your audience to walk away with.
From there, we build the production around the project. Depending on what the job needs, we draw from a trusted network of San Diego and LA-based crew, directors of photography, sound engineers, editors, colorists, and motion designers. You get the right specialists for your project, not a generalist team trying to do everything.
Throughout the process, you work directly with our creative lead. One person who knows your brand, understands the brief, and is accountable for the outcome.
Our Process
Discovery
We start by understanding your brand, your audience, and what success looks like for this project. If you come in with a clear brief, great. If you're still figuring out what you need, we'll help you get there.
Creative development
We develop a concept, treatment, and production plan. You'll know exactly what we're making, why, and how before a single camera is loaded.
Production
We execute the shoot with a crew sized appropriately for the project, no bloat, no corners cut. Our creative lead is on set for every production.
Post-Production
Edit, color, sound, and any motion graphics are handled in-house or by trusted post partners we've worked with for years. You'll receive a cut for review before anything is finalized.
Delivery
Final files delivered in every format you need; broadcast, digital, social cuts, and anything else the campaign requires.
