We Can Help You Retain Your Audience Attention
By studying consumer behaviour, we better understand what kind of video content brands can adapt to capture and retain audience attention and push them from cold leads who are indecisive to hot leads begging to have your products. Also, video content encourages social shares. Consumers who can resonate with the concept of your video are quick to share these videos with friends, colleagues, and followers on social media. This means more visibility and greater chances of making sales for your brand.
Live-action Videos Tell Your Story
Live-actions videos contain real video footage, whether it is a live shot or from stock video footage instead of animation. They start with an idea and composed script, incorporate a set or virtual set, and expert voice, music, and motion graphics. Humanize your brand by putting yourself and your team on camera. Share your story in the way it connects your audience to your brand and builds credibility and authority. A live-action video is right for you as the best way to communicate your brand’s value by showing your product or service in action. We showcase your product directly to your customers as if they are watching your brand (face to face).

What is the Process?
It all starts with an idea, script or a brief. We follow a proven production pipeline with a team of up to 30 professionals that set us apart from the competition in Nigeria. You are in good hands. Let’s help you film and produce your live-action videos. Below is a summary of the various stages of the production process, from idea to delivery.
CREATIVE DESIGN
This stage is where an idea goes through a process of exploration. We’ll help you flesh out the rest if you can provide at least the basic concept. To establish a creative direction, we will research and gather references (i.e. links, similar videos, or examples). We will develop and review a Creative Treatment and Moodboard. Once you are happy with the Treatment and Moodboards, we will proceed to the Pre-Production stage.
PRE-PRODUCTION
The pre-production stage comes before full-scale production begins. The first step is to develop a script/copy or screenplay. Assets such as concept art, design briefs, storyboards, and animatics are created during this stage to formally define the direction and the overall vision of a project. Sometimes a guide voiceover is recorded and merged with animatics to get a sense of the timing and flow of the project. It is easy and quick to make most changes during the pre-production stage.
PRODUCTION
As the name suggests, this is the stage in the pipeline where full-scale production of digital assets (such as 3D objects/models) are created based on the art that was conceptualised during the pre-production stage while ensuring that it adheres to the established art direction. Some of these assets include characters, props, and environments, and these models are created using several different 3D software such as Maya or Blender. Changes can be costly during the production stage, so it is essential to get the pre-production right. The steps in this stage typically include the following:
- Casting
- Live-action Filming
- Voice Talent Recording
- Drone filming
- Costume and Make up
POST-PRODUCTION
Post is the final stage in the production pipeline. Compositing involves taking the render images from the previous stage and either tweaking them or combining them with additional pictures or layers to create a more complex, cohesive composition. Motion Graphics may be required, for example, titles, opening montages, captions, and logo reveals. Video editing is the manipulation and arrangement of video shots, and it is used to structure and present all video information into a flow or story.
Colour grading improves the appearance of an image for presentation in different environments on different devices. Sound design is recording, acquiring, manipulating, or generating audio elements to ensure the film or video is memorable. Mixing takes what should already be a precise performance of the creator’s and director’s original idea and brings it as close as possible to the point where everyone can agree that it’s the sound and feel they want. Mastering address the video as a whole to add consistency to its overall feeling, optimising levels through compression and limiting and finalising the track order.
REVIEW/QUALITY ASSURANCE
Here we’ll have a number of reviews from the previs aka Draft/pre-rendered Cut to fully rendered versions, taking in as much feedback as possible from all stakeholders. If stated in your initial brief, we will also help you output for DStv, social media, TV, radio and other formats.
