FAQ

What services do Los Angeles production companies offer?

Sinematic is one of the few full service creative video production companies Los Angeles . “Full service” means that we help take clients from initial discovery of marketing and advertising needs, market research, creative services, delivery of creative concepts, scripts and boards, video production, post-production and distribution. This full service approach is useful for clients that are looking for both creative and production services. Alternatively, we are also able to provide production services only in the instance in which you as the client already have creative that is locked and approved internally, and are only looking for a production company in Los Angeles that will film and execute. Whatever your needs, we are delighted to help you.

How do I choose the right video production companies in Los Angeles?

Choosing the right video production companies Los Angeles will help determine the success of your video project. Three factors to keep in mind when choosing your LA-based production vendor : 1. Video Portfolio Portfolio: This is the most important aspect of a production company, and will strongly signal to you the quality of your upcoming campaign should you decide to produce with this company. If you like the quality of the Los Angeles production company’s portfolio, then there is a good chance you will like the final output they deliver. If you are unsure, it may be best to keep looking around. 2. Reviews: Read online reviews, such as Google reviews, to help get a sense of what each of the Los Angeles production companies offer, and what are the experiences of past clients. From these reviews, you may be able to get a solid view of what to expect from the company. 3. Capabilities: Determine what are the capabilities necessary for your project, and match those with the capabilities of the video production companies Los Angeles in your shortlist. For example, a video campaign that is purely based on the creation and distribution of hundreds of user-generated content by influencers may need different skills from that of one large international TV campaign. Figuring out which company does what well and matching it to your needs will be crucial to your campaign’s success.

How much do video production companies Los Angeles typically charge ?

Five factors that will determine the cost of your Los Angeles video production project include the following : 1. Size of cast : A large cast will increase cost, as each actor is an additional cost item to the production. If the production is filming with union actors, that may also increase cost, as fringe benefits such as union fees, pension & wages, Medicare, social security etc may need to be added to the base pay. 2. Size of crew: A small film production crew will keep the budget low, a larger crew will increase budget. However, keep in mind that at some level of production, there are standard crew sizes and negotiating that will compromise quality. For example, when filming on a smaller consumer level camera, for example, a DSLR, just one videographer is able to man the camera and handle data transfer by themselves. On the other hand, given the complex and sophisticated nature of a professional film camera, one camera will need to be manned by a small team consisting of a director of photography, a 1st camera assistant, and a 2nd camera assistant. These will help with programming the camera, changing lenses, changing camera set ups, downloading data etc. Additionally, since you can’t you can’t review raw footage from a professional film camera without it getting processed or decoded first, you will also need a data tech that will record the filming in real time and playback instantly for you as the client to review. Reviewing the footage instantly allows you and the film director to confirm performances, camera focus, framing, choreography and other elements for accuracy. As you can see, as the camera and gear gets more sophisticated, so will the size of the crew that is necessary to handle the complexities. 3. Equipment and gear : When it comes to selecting equipment and gear for your production, most Los Angeles production companies will carefully consider your budgets and what best options are available that will provide optimal quality. High-end, professional-grade equipment often comes with a premium price tag compared to consumer-level gear. For example, professional lenses are crafted to deliver stunning, cinematic images that meet the standards for TV and broadcast advertising. However, renting these top-of-the-line lenses can set your budget back several thousand dollars per day. This may be a reasonable cost for a broadcast campaign, perhaps less so on a small social video. On the other hand, consumer-level lenses offer a more budget-friendly alternative, typically costing less than a hundred dollars per week, and may be very suited to video needs that are simpler. In another scenario, if the director for the campaign aims to achieve a specific vintage film effect to enhance the look of your campaign, some custom vintage lenses might be the ideal choice. Keep in mind that these specialty lenses may be harder to find and may come with a higher rental cost. When considering gear options for your project, it's crucial to factor in your budget and the aesthetic you're aiming to achieve. As one of the premier production companies in Los Angeles, our team has the experience to make the most optimal cost/aesthetic trade off for your video production project. 4. Locations and permits : Los Angeles has iconic locations that will invariably enrich the quality of your campaign. Think Rodeo Drive, Malibu beaches, Getty Museum etc. These locations do charge a fee to film in their locations, and the City of Los Angeles charges fees for permits to use the LA streets and sidewalks to park production vehicles and set up production tents. In the case where we are filming in individual homes, the homeowners will ask for a daily location fee, as well as additional fees for clean up, trash removal etc. Fees for higher end homes and studios may add cost to your production. The best production agencies Los Angeles will will carefully review the best Los Angeles locations that fit within your budget and advise you on which ones to go with. 5. Complexity of post-production : Visual effects will typically increase the cost of your video production project. Designing the effects, incorporating your feedback, revising and rendering final effects are tasks that not only take time, but require very high-level skills.

Storyboards That Empower You To Make Visual Decisions

As a premier Los Angeles-based video production company, we understand the importance of seeing your vision on paper before the lights, camera, action!

With our storyboard services, we ensure every detail of your campaign is crystal clear from the get-go. Picture this: detailed illustrations mapping out your video, second by second, complete with backgrounds, dialogue, and even the size of your product. It’s like having a sneak peek at your masterpiece before it’s even created! Amazing, right ?

As a client to one of the top Los Angeles video production companies, we’d like for you to provide as much feedback as you need to be able to get the perfect campaign for your brand. Further, we understand that there may be decision makers who sit outside the marketing department, and they may need visual help for them to visualize the video campaign and provide feedback.
Our storyboards help you and your team see frame by frame what the final video will look like. Storyboards are detailed illustrations that visually depict the story second by second. Our storyboards will include background details and dialogue. Watching the storyboards you and your team are able to give simple feedback such as “make the product appear larger on frame number 4”, or “we want the actor to be looking directly at the product on frame number 8” or “there are not enough background actors in frame number 6, let us have a few more.”

Immediately after, we will revise the boards incorporating the feedback, as well as add detailed notes for the director to bear in mind when filming those particular sections of the video. In some instances, your feedback is also helpful in helping us with decisions on casting, wardrobe and selecting locations etc.

We will hold several meetings to review the storyboards together, and on the day of the filming, you will be able to see on the screen monitor the very exact frame that you approved being captured by the camera. This level of preparation is detailed, intense and requires a committed production team. Indeed, whilst production companies in Los Angeles have abandoned the storyboard process, we have continued to embrace this classic, established tool of filmmaking as our clients love the way it empowers them to provide simple, yet very powerful feedback.
Here at our video production company Los Angeles, collaboration is not just a marketing catchphrase; it is embedded in our very production processes. So, if you’re ready to bring your vision to life with a team that’s dedicated to collaboration and excellence, look no further than Sinematic.

Let’s storyboard your successful campaign together!
