What are the steps involved in creating a commercial from start to finish?
The creation of a commercial is a multi-stage process that involves close collaboration between the client and the production team. It all starts with a Discovery Phase, where we sit down with you to understand your business objectives, target audience, and key message you want to convey through the commercial. This initial conversation helps us lay a strong foundation for the creative process.
​
Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, we move on to the Concept Development stage. Our team of creative experts brainstorms ideas and develops a concept that aligns with your goals and resonates with your target audience. We then translate the concept into a Script and create a Storyboard that visually outlines the flow and sequence of the commercial.
​
The next stage is Production, where the storyboard comes to life. This involves Filming the commercial at suitable locations, using professional actors, equipment, and crew. We ensure that the filming process adheres to the storyboard while also allowing room for creative improvisation.
​
After filming, we enter the Post-Production phase. This is where the raw footage is transformed into a polished commercial. Our skilled editors meticulously edit the footage, add Color Grading to enhance the visual appeal, and incorporate Sound Design to create a captivating audio experience. We also add Visual Effects and Motion Graphics where necessary to elevate the overall production value.
​
Throughout the entire process, we maintain Open Communication with you. We provide regular updates, seek your feedback, and ensure that the commercial is evolving in a direction that meets your expectations. We believe that collaboration is key to creating a commercial that effectively tells your story and achieves your marketing objectives.
