What to send before we hold a date

A short note to info@replicates.online is enough to start. We answer with a crew plan and a written estimate.

What the pictures are for
Where they will run, and whether you need stills, a film, or both. Antwerp cuts diamonds, trains fashion designers and moves half of Europe’s containers. We photograph and film all three, from a studio on Kloosterstraat a few minutes from the river.
Place and dates
The room or the street, and the days you can hold. We leave from Kloosterstraat 64 in Antwerp.
References
Three to six frames you like, and one you do not. Say what you like about them, in a sentence.
Usage
The media, the territories and how long the pictures need to stay live. That sets the estimate more than the kit does.

What you get back

A crew plan and a written estimate: We read the brief, ask what the pictures are for and where they will run, and visit the place if we have not shot there before.
A call sheet and a shot list: Shot list, call sheet, crew and kit go into one document. Must-have frames come first, extras come with a time next to them.
A contact sheet the same evening: Stills are reviewed tethered on set, film is checked on a calibrated monitor, and nobody leaves until the key frames are agreed.
Masters, versions and an archive: Finishing happens here, not with a stranger. Files are named for the media plan and delivered with a readme someone else can follow.
Masters, versions and an archive: Grade, retouch, edit and sound happen in our own room, against the same reference stills, then versions are cut for each place they run.

References, a date and where the pictures will run. We reply with names and a figure.
