Project steps will vary depending on each projects unique needs (i.e. you may need scripting help, you may not).

*All projects are custom, supervised, and lead by Nick Navatta*

• Creative Discovery. We’ll discuss and gather initial ideas and inspirations. We’ll get clear on your big ideas, your audience, and discuss styles and possible storylines.

• Script. Your script is translated into a compelling story. After we submit the script, you’ll request needed revisions to finalize the script.

*We’ll also hire the voiceover talent, as applicable.*

• Storyboard. With the script finalized, we’ll create a storyboard. I’ll provide you with sketches alongside the script to give you an idea what the video will look like.

NOTE: The storyboard phase is the time to offer final feedback on script and illustration styles. After this, revisions become very expensive to make.

• Animatic. We will line up the rough-sketched storyboard cells to the sound or voice track to give you a rough video preview before we start the illustration and animation process.

• Illustrate. I will transform the storyboard sketches into finished illustrations. You’ll provide feedback.

• Animate. We’ll work on animating your video project in a program like Adobe After Effects (which can take anywhere from a couple weeks to several months depending on video length and animation complexity) OR we’ll video record the illustration process (for a project like whiteboard video), which would  take 1-5 days.

• Sound Editing. We’ll add final sound fx tracks, a music track, and other finishing touches.

• Delivery. The final video will be delivered and/or uploaded to you.
