How does the process work?
These are the stages of the working process:
Start-up
- Before each production, an initial meeting is held for a discussion with the team about the structure, goals and purpose of the video/illustration/infographics. This also includes help with communication planning and a clarification of who the client is and thus who provides feedback and approves the delivery.
- Afterwards, you receive an assignment description and a cost estimate.
- The next stage is that you, as the client, approve the brief, cost estimate and script outline, if applicable.
- In the final stage before the production starts, the script and storyboard are approved.
Production
- The work on filming, interviewing, graphic production, illustration, editing etc. gets underway.
- You will then see a first draft on which you can give your feedback.
Post-production
- The video/illustration is finalised with a final review and minor adjustments and sent for final approval.
- If the video’s content, goals and purpose are suitable for dissemination via the University-wide channels, the organisation can get help with this.
