Our Process to School Video Production
ZOOM
It all starts with a Zoom call to pin down your objectives, share some examples and confirm timescales to ensure we hit your ‘go live’ date.
We will also run through the scripting process. Our aim is to make the whole process simple, enjoyable and rewarding.
PREP
By now, you’ll know what’s required at your end. In summary you’ll need to identify your strongest participants, obtain permissions, choose your filming locations and follow our guidance to prepare your scripts in time for us to load them onto our autocue system. At this point you can start to promote your film/event.
FILM
Our crew will arrive early and move quickly from scene to scene; following our ‘staying safe together’ filming process. Locations, props and participants should be prepared in advance. We are skilled at making even the most camera shy feel comfortable and will do as many takes as necessary to capture the scenes. We can break your lines down into small chunks if required.
EDIT
The editing process is where we splice footage, add music, tone and graphics effects to your school film. It is the most time consuming part and leads to the wow that you’re looking for.
We aim to get a first-cut over to you at least 3 working days before your go live date for review and feedback.
LAUNCH
Get ready for lift-off. Typically, 10 days after filming, everything is approved and your film/event is ready to go live. This may be via one of our event micro-sites, via social media platforms, on you school website or ideally a combination of all of these channels.
MEASURE
Look at the stats, listen to the feedback, talk to parents, students and teachers.
We’re sure it will be a big hit and will move you to the next level of communicating with your target audience.
Let’s learn from the outcomes and start the process again.
