We produce between 12 & 15 large productions a year about 150 commercials and 6-10 music videos. In addition we produce countless web and youtube videos each year.
- What do you wish customers knew about your profession or trade?
It doesn't take 10 min to produce a 10 min long video.
We can't just quote a price with out knowing what we are producing.
- Tell us about the project or job that you are most proud of (in the last 12 months).
Shooting in Madagascar for a documentary about humanitarian efforts.
We followed a group who are building schools and educating the small
tribes in Madagascar. The shoot lasted 18 days and took us from the north all the way to the south of the country. We encountered several set backs including getting our truck stuck in a driving rain.
- Tell us something customers may not know about you.
I am very passionate about what I do. Some times people confuse passion for frustration. I only want to make the best possible video I can for you.
- What would you recommend customers looking to save money?
Have a complete idea of what you want to be produced.
- What are the most frequent questions you get from customers? What are the answers?
Q-How much will it cost to make a video.
A-I don't know before I know what kind of video I am making. What services to you need from me? Do you need a script writer? Do you need a voice over? How long will it be? Where do we need to shoot? What format do you want to shoot on? Would you ask a home builder how much it will cost to build a house?
- How did you get started?
Started producing video right after school then that lead me to working for television stations before going to college.
- What types of jobs are the most common?
Small business looking to get a web presents with video.
- What information do you recommend to have readily available before looking for a professional in your trade?
What is your budget and what is the time frame to complete the video. If you don't what your budget is the producer can not gage what level of production you are looking to do. The producer is going to need to know the time frame for completion in order to set up production with other vendors
