FAQ
Why produce a commercial or video in the first place?
New media platforms are creating more ways than ever to connect with your customers. If you have a website, Facebook page, or YouTube channel, then your customers will expect quality videos with a consistent brand voice. It’s a competitive market and every business is fighting to grab the attention of a wide audience. Whether it’s a 15-second spot, a 2-minute product demonstration, or 5-minute corporate documentary, videos are a great way to make your story heard.

How long does it take to produce a video?
Every project is different. Commercials can be shot in one to two days, or more. It depends on the concept and what needs to go into producing it correctly. It’s always possible to rush a project to meet a concrete deadline, but we typically like to allow at least a week of prep or more before every film shoot, with 1-2 weeks of post production. This is after the creative has been locked and agreed upon. Story development can be the biggest variable at times. We find the more we communicate with our clients, the faster we manifest a dynamite idea that everyone can get behind.
What services do we provide?
We produce and direct commercials, corporate videos, narrative films, music videos, and event content. We can also provide Behind The Scenes videos and stills of every project we produce, as well as lifestyle and product photography. We love our team. If you're a producer and you need a trusted and talented person to work with, we’re happy to refer someone. If you need a spot localized for 15 different regions around the world, we've done it before.
Where do we do it?
We are primarily based in San Joaquin County, but we travel where ever the project demands. Most of us are originally from Northern California, so we really love working here.

How much does a commercial or video cost?
This is not an easy question. Because costs can vary on what it ACTUALLY takes to achieve your wishes. We attach an industry standard budget with every one of our treatments. Keep in mind, there are many factors that go into making a professional quality video. For instance: development, scripting, storyboarding, crew size, cast, narration (Voice-Over), equipment, locations and permits, travel, catering, props, wardrobe, music rights, audio mix, studio space, editorial, graphics, visual effects, color correction, and final mastering.
