Our FLOW

Lean, Scrum… Shotgun!

01

Ideation and Research

Every project is new. To keep our heads fresh we spend a fair amount of time with ideation and collecting information. It's common practice to meet our clients and explore their products and services throughout creative workshop and brainstorming sessions. Working many years in the creative industry we push ourselves to stay provocative and open for new ideas. We draw our inspirations from daily life experiences as well as self-initiated experimental projects. We collaborate with artists from all disciplines to learn more about their creative methods. We look forward to hear your story. Let's shine together.
02

Pre-Production

A successful project starts with a professional plan. Working side by side with Hollywood companies such as Disney, Dreamworks, Paramount and TheThirdFloor, we gained a deep understanding how to setup structure and setup animation and movie projects. We all love the power of coincidence, that creates beauty and original art, design and music. But in a professional world with tight deadlines, client expectations and deliverables, everyone looks for reliability. All our teams work with state of the art technology and have have deep understanding of prototyping, previsualization and real-time workflows. At the pinnacle stands communication. Using modern project management software such as Github, Slack, internal Cloud Services and Shotgun, enables us to share information efficiently as well as being able to track down information. It's rather simple to produce a movie, but extremely hard to re-render shots or re-schedule production days that will swallow your budget. Being experts in this field gives you the extra flexibility and safety.
03

Production

We fly you to the moon and back. There shouldn't be any questions left once we close pre-production. Now it is time to kick-off production and make your app, game or movie stand out! You are used to procedural project development? You want to iterate and influence the direction of the outcome? Yes, we are open to do so, but it needs to follow our overall approach of getting things done within in time and quality. From experience we know that what really matters is the the final result. We are not afraid to guard our approach nor to consult you throughout the production to make sure you get what you need.
04

Post-Production

A term that established over the years in film production. A term that could be defined by final adjustments and assembly of all elements to make sure all works and looks fantastic. Due to the fact of real-time workflows, post-production moves closer into production for animation and filmmaking. Looking at app, game and web development this stage aligns with testing, debugging and final assembly. As product owners we approach this stage of development with care, precision and persistence. You don't fix major problems at this stage but you can polish and fine-tune to enable a soft launch.
05

Launch and Maintenance

We made it! Not really. A lot of projects ask for launch control and maintenance. The delivery does not end with exporting the finals and sending them to the client. Obviously the nature of each project is different and there are crucial differences between a commercial spot and a social media app. No matter what are the requirements, we take care of the product as long as you want. You need a trailer for the movie? You want backend support? You want to animate your design? It's up to you to define the support duration. You can count on us.
Whohoo!
