Playing in the big leagues now. Your project is going to be seen by lots of people as well as some important people so you can’t afford not to have full-up, professional production values. You’ve projected your ROI and are committed to apportioning the resources to bring this baby to life. To deliver the goods while shooting Hi-Def, Film or digital 2k, you’re prepared to cover all the bases with top-notch crew and gear. You’re prepared to pay industry standard rates, but why spend more than you need to? Hey, you know what this stuff costs so we provide you with detailed budget estimates which you approve before any work commences. As the needs of your project shift, we keep the dialogue rolling and issue you with Project Change Notifications (PCNs) to make sure we’re all functioning like a team to make sure the results of our efforts hit it out of the park.
