A defined scope
Development, production and post can be discussed together or as a specific part of a project.
The studio
An idea is useful
when it can be filmed.
Aperture connects creative development with the practical work of production and post. Each stage refers back to the purpose of the film.
Keep the purpose
in the frame.
We begin with the audience and the subject. Then we work through the images, people, locations and finished versions the project needs.
The treatment gives the team a shared direction. Planning makes that direction achievable, and the edit tests whether the film communicates it.
Clear approvals
Each stage identifies what needs approval, who is reviewing and what depends on that decision.
A practical handover
Delivery includes the agreed formats and versions. Source files and additional uses are separate scope items, not assumed extras.
A film starts with a brief
What needs
to be seen?
Tell us the subject, the audience and where the film will appear. The format can follow.
