COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION

The film a customer watches before deciding you are serious.

Brand films, product films and the campaign cuts that run beside them. One crew, one studio, one brief, delivered in every format you need.

A recent commercial sits here once it is cleared.

WHAT THIS IS FOR

A commercial has one job: remove the reason somebody is hesitating.

Not to win awards, not to show the building, not to feature the owner because he paid for it. The script starts from the hesitation and works backwards, which is why the first meeting is about sales rather than visuals.

WHAT WE MAKE

Six kinds of commercial work.

Most clients need two of these in a year, not six. We will tell you which two.

HOW IT RUNS

Nobody discovers the film in the edit.

That is the most expensive place to discover anything, so we settle it on paper first.

BriefWhat it must do
Treatment and scriptYou approve before we book
Pre productionCasting, locations, schedule
ShootThe block
PostRough cut early, then finish
DeliveryEvery version

Relative shape of a straightforward commercial. Your dates are set in the treatment.

WHAT IS INCLUDED

Concept to master, without subcontracting the middle.

Two rounds of changes on the cut, which is almost always enough because you approved the script.

WHEN IT NEEDS MORE

Some briefs need a bigger crew and a longer schedule.

Multi day productions with casting, locations, permits and a full post schedule are handled as cinema tier work, with the planning that requires.

QUESTIONS

The things people ask first.

As long as it needs to remove the hesitation and not one second longer. For most brand films that is under two minutes, and the campaign cuts are far shorter.

Sometimes, and we will tell you honestly whether mixing it in will look like a compromise.

Yes. Every track is licensed for the territories and platforms you are running in, and the licence is listed in the handover.

Time with whoever sells, access to the product or site, and one person empowered to approve. That last one saves more money than anything else.

Two on the cut are standard and almost always enough, because you approved the script before we shot it.
