Common questions

What does brand video production include?

Concept, script, direction, the shoot, and the edit, owned by one person. Music, colour grade, and sound mix are handled through final delivery. The same eye that directs the stills directs the motion, so the brand reads the same in both.

What does a brand video cost?

Scope decides it: shoot days, crew, cast, locations, and how many finished cuts the rollout needs. You get one clear number before anything is booked.

What a brand video costs, in detail

Can one shoot produce both horizontal and vertical cuts?

Yes, when it is planned from the start. Framing, sets, and blocking are built so the film survives both formats without cropping the story away. Reels and paid formats come from the same day, not a second shoot.

How do you get real answers in customer and testimonial videos?

The interview is directed like a conversation, aimed at the person rather than the message. When someone talks about their own work, the brand arrives on its own, and that is what makes it believable. The questions are prepared; the answers never are.

Do you deliver bilingual versions for French and English markets?

Yes. Both languages are directed natively on set rather than subtitled after the fact, so each market hears its own voice. Quebec French and English get their own takes.
