Thank you for considering Get Fokus'd Productions for your video production needs.

Our customizable services are designed to align with your specific project goals, and your proposal includes two tailored options for your review; please reach out with any questions.


Our Fokus’d Process

  • 1. Initial Consultation: Gathering details to determine scope of project & needs

    2. Pre-Production: Discussion of scope, location scouting, etc.

    3. Production: Filming based on agreed upon scope & mini photo session (1 location)

    4. Post-Production: Editing & refine raw footage, Audio & Sound Engineering, etc.

    5. Visual Deliverables: Digital Delivery of final visual(s)

    6. Reflection Meeting: Discussion of successes, challenges and future opportunities

  • Pre-production is the phase where all the planning takes place before the camera rolls. This phase involves tasks such as our initial consultation session, development of script/interview questions, shot list development/storyboarding, location scouting/review, organization of filming, casting/interviewee review, scheduling, budgeting, and equipment review & preparation.

    The purpose of pre-production is to ensure that all aspects of the visual story services are well-organized and in place before filming begins. This phase sets the foundation for a successful video production by outlining the creative vision and logistical details.

  • Production is the phase where the video is actually filmed or recorded. This phase involves activities such as setting up equipment, lighting, sound recording, directing talent/interviewees, capturing footage, and managing the on-set logistics.

    The purpose of the production phase is to execute the creative vision established during pre-production and capture high-quality footage that aligns with the project goals. This phase requires coordination, attention to detail, and effective communication among the production team members.

    Our production team includes but not limited to: Communication & Logistics Liaison, Director/Producer, Camera Operator (DP), Camera Assistant, Lighting Crew, Hospitality: Make-Up, Runner/Fokus'd Kreatives.

    Rates Include all Personnel/Team Members, Equipment, Admin & Overhead fees, etc.

  • Post-production is the final phase of the video production process where all the footage is edited, enhanced, and finalized. This phase involves tasks such as data handling & storage, video editing/cutting, color grading/correction, sound design, adding visual effects, textual design & animations,sound design, music selection, and finalizing the video for delivery.

    The purpose of post-production is to transform raw footage into a polished, cohesive video that effectively conveys the intended message or story. This phase also involves client feedback and revisions to ensure that the final video meets the client's expectations.

    Note: Our storytelling style and approach is creative, emotive and is based on musical and narrative elements.

  • Deliverables for video production services typically refer to the final products or assets that are provided to the client upon completion of the project.

    These deliverables are the tangible outcomes of the video production process and may vary depending on the specific requirements of the client and the scope of the project.

  • A reflection meeting is a crucial step in the video production process where the team gathers to review the progress of the project, discuss what went well and what could be improved, and identify key takeaways for future projects.

  • Notes on Rate: The starting rate listed is a combination of costs developed based on our process. This rate may vary depending on the scope of work. Our proposals and quotes can change based on the specific scope or any additional services requested.

    Notes on Budget: We understand that budget constraints are a reality for many nonprofit organizations, and we're committed to supporting you in various ways. We encourage you to be open and honest about your budget so that we can explore potential cost-saving measures together, although we can't guarantee reductions.
