Understanding the Pre-Production Process
Before any filming or editing begins, your project will go through pre-production – the planning phase where key creative and logistical decisions are made. Your Maker will prep all pre-production services such as concepts, scripts, music or voiceover options, etc. based on your brief. You’ll get a chance to review and approve everything before production starts.
🎬 What Happens During Pre-Production?
Once your project is matched with a Maker:
The Maker gets started on pre-production work.
You’ll be notified when items are ready for your review.
You provide feedback or approve them to move forward.
After everything is approved, your project heads into production.
🔄 Your Role in the Process
During pre-production, you will:
Review all service materials such as scripts, talent, music, etc.
Leave feedback notes on services (if applicable)
Approve services to keep the project moving
💡Tip: Be sure to gather all stakeholder input before submitting feedback to avoid delays.
🕒 Staying On Schedule
A few simple tips to keep things on track:
Review and approve materials quickly
Ship any required products early (if applicable)
Try to finalize everything at least 48 hours before the shoot (if applicable)
✅ What’s Next?
Once all services are approved, pre-production will complete and your project moves into production (where the real magic begins ✨).
