Our Process

01
Pre-Production:
You'll know before we shoot it's going to be great.
That's Pre-Production at digital brand. We plan every detail to the nth degree with your input, inside your budget, and help you sell it up the line. With storyboards. Conference calls. A tight script. Talent and music auditions. Before we're on location, you're confident – we've got it.
02
Production:
Let's shoot for something bigger.
All the kinks have been worked out. (That was Pre-Production, remember?) We can focus on your vision. The talent is killing it. The lighting is awesome. The mood is perfect. Oh, we're getting it! We're always looking for shots that will help you make more out of your video. Let's play it back. OMG, you can see it already! And it's fun. And on time. And fun!
03
Post-Production:
Cut, Polish and Deliver
We're so flexible and accustomed to working however you prefer. You can supervise the edit from the get-go in our ultra-comfy suite. Or we can show you a first cut. We make it easy for you to review remotely and make edits and comments. And we're quick. You'll hit your deadline and knock their socks off. We can turn the footage, graphics and animation into social media, TV commercials, different versions for different audiences. Because we plan. And we think ahead. Post-Production begins in Pre-Production!

FAQ’s

Find out answers to the most popular questions our clients have.
How much does video production cost?
You’ve got a budget - we get it! The answer to this question depends on many things that we will estimate in your initial consult call including: Number of locations, additional crew, amount of post-production, custom graphics or soundtracks, etc. When you hire us you can be sure that we ONLY charge you for what is needed for your specific project.

How does video content help businesses?
Video has the ability to communicate your company’s culture and tone in an accurate and memorable way. Not only does video content drive online traffic, but it gives your viewers a feeling of connection to your brand, even prior to their first interaction. Internally, video content can make exec-level employees seem more approachable, and build a sense of unity within the company. The benefits are endless! A great video doesn’t just work, it get’s work done for you. We provide guidance on messaging and placement to help your video drive real results.
How long does it take to produce a video?
The average, video production timeline is 6-8 weeks from inquiry to delivery. However, we have been known to be able to get things produced much quicker when needed! This timeline can vary based on the complexity of your video needs, your schedules, and any custom assets that are needed (graphics/soundtracks/etc). After our initial meeting, we’ll be able to send out an anticipated timeline for your project that accommodates your deadlines.
What’s the first step in producing a company video?
Submit a Contact form here to tell us about your project! We’ll get back to you as soon as possible to schedule a video call to discuss ideas and scope. Following that call, we’ll craft a custom quote and creative brief for your project. This is at NO cost to you: No commitment is required!
How does a video crew work with a marketing team or agency?
We are very familiar with working with agencies, and internal marketing and media teams. Our producers will keep you in the loop with every step of the project, just like collaborating with an in-house team. We make sure that your vision and brand standards are accounted for, and that budgets and deadlines are met.
What does video production involve?

How does the video revision process work?
We believe that by working alongside you in the early stages of your video project, you can avoid having to go through multiple rounds of revisions. When it comes time for your first review, we put our best foot forward. We want to hear your thoughts and opinions - after all, YOU know your company and industry best! We can’t promise 30 rounds of revisions (because no one wants to do that), but we can promise that there will be no hidden costs or surprises, and you will be thrilled with the final product.
Who writes the script for a corporate video?
Our clients don’t have to spend time writing and rewriting the perfect script. Whether you have bullet points of ideas or a blank piece of paper, we’ll write and optimize your messaging to create an engaging visual concept. We specialize in brand messaging and content development, which results in videos that FEEL like your company, and stand the test of time.
What is a video library and why does a marketing team need one?
We pride ourselves in keeping your footage backed up safely. After your project is completed, your footage will be archived in our system for 2 years. We have nearly a 100% client return rate and will build an archive of your footage to make future projects with us a breeze. Footage can be re-purposed to save production costs on future projects!
Does Digital Brand travel outside of Wichita?
Yes! Our team is very familiar with traveling with gear and partnering with other crews across the country. No matter where we go, you can relax knowing that our level of service and quality of product will not change!
