STORYBOARD

To conceptualize an idea for a video project, a storyboard is created. This helps with planning the content and design of the production.

Storyboards are a great and inexpensive way to visualize an idea before the work on production begins. This helps iron out what is required in terms of props, locations and animation, which in turn assists in costing out a project.

Often, storyboards are also used to pitch an idea for a web commercial or promotional content to a prospective client.

The example to the left is for a web commercial for a white water rafting centre.

 

FILM

All footage is filmed on a professional Sony Z1 high definition camera. The beauty of this camera is that it is small enough to enable getting into tight spots to get that creative angle for a shot, while producing crisp HD footage.

Audio is recorded using shot gun condenser microphones mounted on camera or on a boom.

Dependent on the requirements of the project, additional equipment, such as cue/prompt machine or additional lighting is hired as needed.

 

EDIT

The editing work is carried out on a state of the art 64 bit editing suit. All footage is edited in High Definition and can then be exported to the required format (DVD, Web).

Editing (Post Production) takes up most of the time during the creation of a project. Communication with the client is essential during this time as the project evolves. Many rough cuts are created and sent to the client for approval before the edit is finalised and the work producing the presentation of the finished product can begin.

Post production is the most rewarding part of creating a web commercial, company communication or promotion as this is where all the ideas are assembled and realised. Where your unique program is created..
