Plan the shoot.
Then shoot the plan.
The essentials for on-location video production. We scout the space, write the script, board the shots, and build the schedule, so the shoot day goes to filming instead of figuring things out.
The essentials, done early.
Every on-location job starts here. Scale it up or down to fit the project.
Site Visit
We walk the location before the crew ever arrives, and bring back everything needed to plan around it.
- 3D Gaussian splat scan of the space
- Location photos, inside and out
- Light, power, and sound notes
- Load-in, parking, and staging plan
Scripting
A clear story before cameras roll, written for the people who'll actually be on screen.
- Creative direction and tone
- Script or interview outline
- Key lines and talking points
- On-screen text and graphics notes
Storyboarding
Every setup drawn out and matched to the space we scanned, so nobody guesses on the day.
- Shot-by-shot storyboard
- Camera, lens, and movement per shot
- Lighting setups mapped to the room
- Coverage plan for the edit
Shot List
The storyboard turned into a working checklist the whole crew runs from.
- Numbered shots grouped by scene
- A-cam and B-cam assignments
- Must-haves flagged
Run of Show
A minute-by-minute schedule, built around your talent's time and the location's hours.
- Crew call and setup before talent
- Timed blocks per scene
- Built-in resets and pickups
Crew & Gear Plan
The right people and the right kit for the job, and nothing extra.
- Crew roles and responsibilities
- Camera, audio, and lighting package
- COI, releases, and location sign-off
Shoot days are short. Plans aren't.
Locations have hours. Talent has a call time. Businesses stay open around you. The shoot day goes smoothest when every question is answered before anyone loads in.
Pre-production is where we do that work. By the time cameras roll, the crew already knows the room, the shots, and the order they happen in.
From first call to call time.
Discovery call
We learn the goal, the audience, the location, and the deadline.
Site visit
We scout and scan the location, then share photos and a 3D walkthrough.
Script & boards
We draft the script, storyboard, and shot list, and revise with you.
Pre-production meeting
We walk everyone through the plan on one shared page, then lock it in.
Shoot day
The crew arrives set up and ready. Talent walks in, and we roll.
