Process

  • Voiceover Recording: Record professional voiceover narration (if applicable).
  • Editing and Motion Graphics: Combine footage, animations, graphics, and music to create a polished video.
  • Revisions and Finalization: Review and incorporate client feedback before final delivery.

Client Communication

Effective communication is key to the success of the project. Based on the package, communication channels will include:

  • Regular progress updates via email, Slack, or project management tools.
  • Dedicated project manager as the primary point of contact for all communication and coordination.

Schedule of Deliverables

The standard turnaround time for producing a How-to Tutorial video is 10-14 business days. In case of a faster turn-around, you can opt for a suitable add-on. (Refer to pricing table above)

Note:

  1. One open video request at a time
  2. The turnaround time starts after we have received all the required information related to the project and nothing is pending from the Client’s side. E.g. If Figma access or branding guidelines are pending, the video production time doesn’t start.
  3. The turnaround time doesn’t include the time we wait for the Client’s review and revisions. For example, If the script is delivered for review on day 3 and the client sends feedback on day 5 (two days was client revision time), the clock for video production time starts from day 6. 

Revisions

  1. Two rounds of revisions at each stage. E.g. Suggestions given on two different dates are considered as two rounds
  2. We will proceed to the next stage only after receiving a "final approval" message from you. "Final approval" means that you explicitly use the words "approved" or "final" in your message.
  3. Any revisions requested in a previous stage after the final approval will be assessed for additional effort. We will inform you of any associated fees before making the revisions.
  4. If the final video does not meet the original instructions or misses any requirements, we will make the necessary revisions at no additional cost. However, if there is a change in the scope or design requirements, subsequent deliverables will be charged.

Example: If the script and storyboard were approved in the previous stage, but changes to the script are needed after the first video draft is sent (no changes to the storyboard), there will be a charge of $100 for the script changes. In case both script and storyboard need updations, it would cost $100 for each.

Please note that any revisions mentioned above may affect the delivery schedule. 

Rationale: Revisions take time and incur additional costs. If the original instructions are followed, but the project scope changes or there are changes from a previous stage, the entire process needs to be repeated. This requires additional effort from the scriptwriter, storyboard artist, voiceover artist, and video editor to synchronize everything again.
