FAQs

Start by writing down what you want your video to look like. Think about the story you want to tell and the mood you wish to create. Discuss with your team and make a list of key scenes or moments you want to capture. This will help the director of photography understand your project better.
Create a simple calendar with all important dates and deadlines. Share these dates with the photographer so they know when things need to be done. This helps in planning the shoot and making sure everything is ready on time.
Give details about where you want to shoot your project. List locations, address any special conditions, and tell the director about lighting or sound issues. Sharing photos of the location can also help in planning the shots better.
Think about other videos or movies you enjoy and list what you like about them. Are they colorful, bright, or dark and moody? Share these thoughts with your photographer. This helps them know what you’re looking for.
Talk about any specific equipment you think is necessary. Ask about cameras, lenses, and lighting gear they plan to use. The right equipment will help create the quality and look you desire for your film.
List out what you want completed by the end of the project. Be clear about things like final video length, number of revisions, and delivery formats. Writing this down ensures that everyone is on the same page.
Decide on a routine or schedule for meetings early on. These can be weekly or monthly, depending on the project length. It helps keep both you and your director of photography updated and aligned on progress.
Talk about what happens after the shooting is finished. Discuss editing, color grading, and any special effects needed. Knowing these details beforehand helps prepare for this final stage of your project.
Choose a method for regular updates, like email or chat. Ensure both you and the director of photography check in often. Good communication helps everyone feel confident and comfortable with the project’s progress.
