Media Handoff Ready for Edit
Organized, properly labeled files delivered via upload or file transfer immediately after the shoot. Your editor can start working within hours of the shoot.
Perfect for Teams Who Handle Their Own Post-Production
This service is designed for the professionals and their unique situations featured below who need production support, not a full-service solution.
You're managing multiple client projects and need a reliable local crew for shoot days. You handle the strategy and the post-production in-house.
Marketing Agencies
You have an internal editor and content strategy, but lack the crew and equipment for professional shoots. You need occasional production support that integrates well with your existing team.
In-House Marketing Teams
You're producing content for clients or networks and need a skilled local crew in Kansas City or the Midwest. You manage the project but need reliable boots on the ground for production.
