When the process is started, you will have a phone or in person, consultation to share a clear understanding of your goals and objectives. Then, the production team will put together an estimate and timeline for your project. Once the agreed-upon deposit is paid (usually 70-80%) then the team will begin pre-production on your project, place the rest of the team on hold for the days required and get the ball rolling. Remember, video production services are more detailed and are held to higher standards of quality than just hiring an amateur videographer. However, I'm available to be hired just as a freelance director, cinematographer or camera operator with assistants as well depending on your project requirements.
