Creating compelling visual content is both an art and a science, and our recent project for Kuihi Technology’s Shopify App, Taskr, exemplifies this blend perfectly. From detailed pre-shoot planning to the final touches in post-production, every step was meticulously crafted to bring out the best in Taskr. Here's a behind-the-scenes look at how we approached and executed this project.
Strategic Storyboarding: The Blueprint for Success
Before the cameras started rolling, we spent considerable time strategizing and developing a comprehensive storyboard for Taskr's trailer video. This pre-production phase is crucial as it lays out the visual and narrative elements, ensuring that we cover all key aspects of the app's functionality and benefits.
Our storyboard served as a visual guide, detailing each frame and shot, and provided a clear roadmap for the shoot day. This preparation maximized our efficiency and ensured that we didn't overlook any critical components. It also allowed us to maintain a balance between structure and creativity, enabling spontaneous moments that added authenticity to the footage.
Efficiency Meets Creativity: Planning the Perfect Shoot
On the shoot day, our primary goal was to capture high-quality, versatile footage while keeping the process smooth and enjoyable for everyone involved. By organizing the shoot meticulously, we ensured that no time was wasted, and the workflow remained seamless.
We strategically planned interview segments with specific questions aimed at addressing the key concerns and interests of Taskr's target audience. However, we deliberately avoided scripting the answers to keep the responses natural and genuine. This approach fosters authenticity, allowing the clients to express their true experiences and insights about Taskr.
Authenticity Through Editing: Crafting the Perfect Narrative
Post-production is where the magic happens. After filming, we transcribe each interview and analyze the content to identify the most compelling and informative sections. This process allows us to craft a narrative that is both engaging and informative, ensuring that the final product resonates with viewers.
Our editing techniques focus on creating a cohesive story by seamlessly integrating key information and captivating moments. This approach not only highlights Taskr's features but also captures the enthusiasm and genuine reactions of the interviewees.
Multi-Purpose Content: Maximizing Efficiency
During the shoot, we also captured additional footage for various types of content, including social media posts and user-generated content (UGC). By shooting interview answers for photo posts, we streamline the caption-writing process, ensuring consistency in tone and voice across all platforms.
The UGC we shot for Kuihi Technology on the same day was particularly noteworthy. The location and the UGC participant were phenomenal, providing us with excellent social proof. Seeing Taskr in action through the eyes of real users like Greg and Paul added an extra layer of authenticity to the content.
Highlighting the Perfect Location: Brickwork Studio
The choice of location can significantly impact the quality of a shoot, and Brickwork Studio in Darley Abbey, Derby, was the perfect setting for this project. The studio offered a versatile backdrop with an abundance of quality shots. Sam Docker, the studio owner, was incredibly accommodating, providing us with access to his extensive range of equipment and his expert advice.
We highly recommend Brickwork Studio for anyone looking to elevate their visual content. Sam's knowledge and experience as a photographer and videographer made a significant difference in the overall outcome of our shoot.
