PRODUCTION PROCESS & WORKFLOW STRATEGY
Built on
collaboration.
Founded in 1977 and providing creative solutions for major national and international organizations for both broadcast and non-broadcast environments, Interface Media Group consistently creates the finest audio- visual/digital media for the most discriminating clients including most government agencies including DHS, HHS, the Department of State, National Geographic, Discovery Networks, the National Gallery of Art, PBS, NASA and others. Interface fully understands the importance of creative consultation, client communication, and budget and time management for all projects. Our goal is to be a creative force for the effective delivery of our clients’ message. We believe that compelling storytelling through image and sound can only be achieved via a collaborative approach to the entire creative process. We have found that working in a close yet challenging environment with our clients throughout pre-production, production and post pushes all involved to a higher level resulting in the superior productions we are noted for.
Consultation
Each project plan begins by working out a clear understanding between the client and IMG as to what precisely the presentation is intended to accomplish. Only then can the right team of creatives be assembled, the best means for conveying the intended content or feelings be explored, and the most effective and efficient approach defined. This outcome-based method is a hallmark of our organization’s approach.
Pre-production
The process of creation follows a time-tested blueprint. During preproduction we meet, discuss, plan and eventually create a concept treatment. Jobs that involve narration, interview, shooting and production will flow into the scriptwriting phase. This results in a script outline and ultimately a final script. Those that are strictly graphic in nature will have style frames, storyboards and animatics created. Working from the storyboards, the script and other resources, we then finalize the production outline.
Production
During the production phase IMG provides the necessary resources and personnel required for all studio and location productions. We shoot original material and obtain any complementary stock or archival footage needed to achieve the realization of the creative vision. IMG’s Directors and Producers oversee the creative process, working closely with the Director of Photography, Lighting Director and entire crew to ensure a professional, cohesive and cost effective production. We involve and keep the client apprised of the status of the job during each phase.
Post Production
The fruits of our labor come to life. IMG’s post production pipeline sets the standard for the industry. Our talented artists, designers and editors work with the most current design, editing and audio technology to refine and finesse the master until it exceeds all of our expectations. We continually test to ensure that the final deliverables display correctly for their intended use.
Quality Assurance & Distribution
Before delivery, IMG reviews picture, sound, graphics, and required accessibility features against the project’s specifications. We coordinate final client approval, verify that files display and play correctly for their intended use, and prepare approved deliverables for distribution across the required platforms and channels.
A seamless production experience.
Interface is well versed in creating content and collaborating with clients across many different mediums. Each has its own production pipeline which integrates various aspects of our resources and disciplines. Our aim is to make the production an integrated, seamless process. Our management systems make it possible to keep the production on time and on budget, and with 50 years of experience, we are prepared for all of the inevitable twists and turns of any creative collaboration. The result is always a successful end product.
