Crafting Compelling Stories: Media Mill’s Production Process

At Media Mill, we often hear from new clients that they’d like to create video content to promote their business, but they simply don’t know where to start. Even the thought of working with a video production company can be a daunting prospect. For this reason, we like to lay out our production process up front, putting our clients at ease and helping them to understand the process.

Successful video production hinges on planning and execution across three critical phases: Pre-Production, Production, and Post-Production. Each stage plays a pivotal role in ensuring that our clients receive a polished video that meets their objectives and captivates their audience.

In this blog post, let’s explore how Media Mill collaborates with our clients to create bespoke video content.

Pre-Production: Setting the Stage for Success

Every project with Media Mill begins with a detailed Project Brief. This initial exchange—whether through a phone call or email—lays the foundation by clarifying the client’s goals, target audience, and scope. We craft a comprehensive proposal that outlines various options, ensuring the client makes an informed decision aligned with their vision.

Ahead of filming, we carry out a location visit to assess factors like noise levels, lighting conditions, and accessibility, ensuring a smooth shoot on the day.

 

Production: Bringing Plans to Life

On filming day, our team arrives well in advance to set up equipment and finalize preparations. Whether capturing interviews, product demonstrations, or event coverage, our focus remains on executing the planned shots efficiently and effectively. Each setup, from lighting to audio, is carefully calibrated to achieve optimal results, ensuring every moment is captured flawlessly.

 

Post-Production: Crafting the Final Product

Once filming wraps, our attention turns to Post-Production, where all footage is edited to meet project specifications. This phase includes editing, color grading, audio mixing, and integrating music, voice over and graphics where needed. The first draft, delivered as a low-resolution proof with watermarks and timestamps, allows clients to provide feedback and suggest revisions.
Throughout the editing process, we strive for excellence, ensuring all client feedback is incorporated. Upon approval, the video is exported in high definition, marking the successful completion of the project.
