Need video work?
With Truman Pictures, you get work that is…
handcrafted.
Though we can achieve a sleek, classic commercial look like our documentary work, we like things to have a homemade feel to them. This is the kind of thing that give our work a unique look - no two projects will ever quite look the same because we use different techniques to achieve different things. From stop-motion animation, to hand drawn animation. From hand-made props to miniature sets. Every element in a Truman Pictures video can come from anywhere! And we’re not afraid to film on location, either!
creative.
We pride ourselves on taking inspiration from a variety of places, and coming up with original stories and ideas. The number one thing we hear when it comes to our stories, concepts, and aesthetics has always been that it’s original and creative. Telling stories that range from dogs and detectives to distant fathers on other planets, our creativity is implemented across all our work - not just the narrative ones. This includes all the graphics artwork that come with all our projects.
high quality.
We can create high quality (HD Video) work that you will be proud to share with friends, family, and consumers. We’ve made videos for a Teacher of the Year award, a documentary on an immigrant advocacy center, commercials for a film festival, and our own short films with dog puppets, robots, and shady characters. We’re nothing if not versatile and ready to implement whatever ideas, characters, dialogue, and branding you need to promote your business, show off your band, or celebrate an event - personal or professional!
so What does it take?
To produce handcrafted, creative, high quality content we need to go through the filmmaking process from beginning to end. So, when you hire us to make your video, you’re paying for…
writing.
All good stories start written down! Together we can work out the words/ideas/images you have in your head, and the ones we have in ours to figure out what we all want the final video to be!
producing.
Any video project requires all kinds of work: Finding talent to star, from live actors to voice actors. Finding locations, and scheduling filming days. And even creating props/ costumes/ sets/ animation. All this so we’re finally ready to get the camera out!
shooting.
This is the fun part! We finally start recording all the stuff we talked about and created in our minds! We get out the camera, the lights, and all the cool fog machines and props and things to make your video the super cool thing you imagined it to be!
editing.
We sit in a dark room and put the whole thing together! Adding music, sound effects and visual effects where necessary - all of which also might take some time to truly finalize and make look and sound as good as possible!
and finally… delivery!
Your video is now yours to share with the world! And here we can even continue to help you set up your video on social media, if necessary. But for now, know that you have your spectacular, handcrafted, creative, high quality video to share with all your friends/family/associates/customers!
how much will it cost?
Every project is different, so we can’t give you any solid numbers until we actually start discussing what you want! A music video is different from a series of commercials, which is different from one commercial, which is different from a company retreat video, which is different from a short film, and so on and so on.
