Our Process: Tailored for Community Growth

We make the process simple and transparent. From exploring if we’re a good fit through to planning and execution – we’re with you every step of the way.

Discovery & Consultation

Every community has its own unique story to tell. We begin with an in-depth consultation to understand your community’s goals—whether it’s attracting new businesses, residents, or visitors. We dive deep into your vision, objectives, and the key messages you want to communicate through visuals. This ensures that the final product not only captures the essence of your community but also serves your broader development strategy.

Planning & Creative Brief

A well-defined plan is key to showcasing your community in the best possible light. Following our consultation, we’ll prepare a creative brief outlining the project’s concept, style, and core messaging. We will generate a shot list and schedule and provide you with the information needed to arrange interviews, locations, or any other community-specific details for the session.

Production

From historic landmarks to thriving businesses, our production phase is all about capturing the heart of your community. Our team sets the scene to tell your community’s story visually—whether it’s through scenic shots of the landscape, vibrant downtown streets, or highlighting key infrastructure projects that are drawing investment and growth.

Editing & Post-Production

We bring the raw footage and images to life, ensuring that they reflect the dynamic spirit of your community. Our editing process includes fine-tuning every element, from adjusting colours to match your town’s aesthetic to adding graphics and captions that highlight key features for potential investors, residents, or tourists. Your input is crucial, so we incorporate your feedback to ensure it aligns with your community goals.

Delivery & Support

Once you’ve approved the final content, we deliver it in the formats you need—whether for web, social media, presentations, or print. We also offer ongoing support, helping you integrate the visuals into your community marketing materials, tourism campaigns, or economic development presentations.
