Process & Timeline

How Does the Production Process Work?

Our production process is built to be collaborative, efficient, and stress-free. We start with pre-production, where we meet with you to understand your goals, target audience, and key messages. From there, we handle scripting, scheduling, location scouting, and planning. During production, our crew films on location or in studio using state-of-the-art digital cinema cameras, camera gimbal systems, drones, expert lighting, and professional audio gear. The final stage, post-production, includes editing, color correction, sound mixing, voiceovers, and motion graphics. Throughout the process, you’ll have opportunities to review drafts, provide feedback, and ensure the video reflects your vision.

How Long Does It Take to Complete a Project?

Timelines depend on the complexity of the project, but most professional video productions are completed within 2 to 4 weeks from kickoff. Simple projects with minimal editing may be turned around more quickly, while larger productions with multiple filming days, animations, or heavy post-production may require additional time. We establish a clear timeline at the start of every project so you’ll know exactly what to expect and when your video will be ready.

Can You Work With My In-House Marketing Team?

Absolutely. Many of our clients have in-house marketing teams, and we frequently serve as a creative production partner that complements their efforts. Whether your team wants to provide the strategy and messaging while we handle filming and editing, or you’d like us to collaborate throughout the entire process, we’re flexible and collaborative. Our goal is to strengthen your marketing initiatives by delivering high-quality video content that aligns with your brand.

Pricing & Packages

How Much Does a Video Cost?

The cost of professional video production varies depending on scope, such as the number of filming days, locations, crew members, editing requirements, and whether graphics, motion design, or drone footage are included. At Maverick Productions, we provide customized quotes that are transparent and tailored to your project’s needs. Whether you’re a small business looking for a single promotional video or a large organization planning a multi-part campaign, we can scale our services to fit your budget and goals. Contact us for a custom quote for your video project.

Do You Offer Packages?

Yes. For clients who want multiple videos or ongoing content throughout the year, we offer video production packages that provide both flexibility and cost savings. This is ideal for companies building a video library for social media, training, product launches, or internal communications. Our packages allow you to plan ahead and maximize your investment in professional video content.

Do You Require a Deposit?

Yes. To begin pre-production and secure your project on our schedule, we require a deposit of 50%. The remaining balance is typically structured around project milestones, giving you a clear payment plan that corresponds with the stages of your production. This ensures a smooth process for both sides.

Do You Offer Drone Footage?

Yes. We offer aerial video services with licensed Part 107 FAA-certified drone operators, giving your project cinematic overhead perspectives that add energy and production value. Drone footage is a powerful way to showcase real estate, events, campus settings, or outdoor locations.

Delivery & Support

How Will I Receive My Video?

Final videos are delivered digitally in high-resolution formats, typically optimized for web, social media, broadcast, or internal use. We can provide multiple versions of your video, for example, a full-length cut plus shorter edits for social platforms. Everything is delivered through secure digital transfer for easy access and sharing.

Can You Help With Distribution?

Yes. Creating a great video is only the first step, getting it seen is just as important. We can advise on video hosting, YouTube/Vimeo optimization, social media formatting, and video for SEO or digital marketing campaigns to help your video reach the right audience. We also work with partners that are experts at media buying and placement. Our team ensures your video content is not only produced to the highest standard but also strategically positioned for maximum visibility and engagement.
