During an call, we uncover your ‘why’, your objectives and the key messages you want to communicate. We dig into the DNA of your organisation and understand the audiences you want to reach. We talk through any volunteers and stories available to you, to inform how we craft an authentic video with your communities at the heart. 

A 'beat sheet' is traditionally used to structure the plot of a video. It is used to attach particular key messaging and key points to particular interviewees and helps us craft interview questions and prompts to elicit the responses from interviewees that are required for the final story.

The creative treatment outlines how your film will ‘look and feel’. It includes visual moodboards illustrating the lighting, colour palette, location and interview compositions ensuring you and your contributors know what to expect on filming day and with the final video. 

Faltrego handles all logistical aspects of production to ensure a smooth filming day. This includes arranging location access, crew and equipment, scheduling, shot lists, legal paperwork, permissions, and even parking. You simply need to show up and enjoy the process.

Faltrego ensures flexibility on shoot days to ensure all candidates are comfortable. Filming typically includes both interviews and  capturing b-roll footage of interactions and activities. We recommend scheduling a full 8-hour day to capture the widest range of content for your film.

We transcribe the interviews and structure the transcribed soundbites into a ‘Paper Edit’ that hits your key messages. This allows you to review the story structure before editing begins. We edit the film and add music, sound effects, colour grade and accessibility features.
