2. Pre-Production: Laying the Essential Groundwork
Once we're fully aligned on your goals, we transition into the pre-production phase. This is where the initial spark of an idea truly begins to take shape.

Creating storyboards or detailed visual treatments.
Meticulously scheduling all shoot days.
Assembling the ideal crew and talent for your project.

This is also where our capabilities for virtual production can really shine, offering innovative solutions for dynamic visual storytelling.
