Factory Video Production in Mumbai

01

What factory video production actually involves

Plant and manufacturing films shot around live production without stopping the line.

We plan the work backwards from the decision you need the viewer to make. For factory films, that means deciding early whether the film is doing persuasion work, explanation work or proof work — because those three jobs need different structures, different running times and different crews.

A typical engagement runs 3-6 weeks and is delivered by director, dop, drone pilot, safety marshal. The technical package is built around fx9, gimbal, dji mavic 3 enterprise, industrial led, scaled up or down against the brief rather than the invoice.

02

What you receive

Deliverables are agreed in writing before the shoot, so nothing is negotiated after the fact. The standard package for factory films includes:

• Plant walkthrough film
• Process breakdown sequences
• Aerial establishers

03

How we run the project

Six stages, each with a named owner and a dated checkpoint.

• Pre-production: Recce, permissions, casting, art direction and a call sheet issued 72 hours ahead. Everything that can be decided before the shoot day is decided before the shoot day.
• Production: A crew sized to the brief. We shoot to the edit, capture protection coverage, and review selects with you at wrap.
• Post production: Offline cut, client review, online conform, colour grade, sound mix and graphics. You see the film at rough cut, fine cut and final.
• Delivery and measurement: Platform-specific masters, captions, thumbnails and an asset index. We review performance after 30 days and feed it into the next brief.
• Discovery: A 90-minute session with the people who own the outcome. We leave with the audience, the proposition and the single action the film has to drive.
• Strategy and script: A written treatment and shooting script, reviewed against the brief. Two revision rounds are built into the schedule so feedback does not delay production.

04

Investment and what moves the number

Factory Video Production projects typically sit between Rs 2.5L - Rs 18L. The variables that move that figure are crew size, number of shoot days, cast and location fees, and the depth of post production.

We quote in three tiers against the same script so you can see exactly what an extra day or an extra grade session buys. What we do not do is win the brief on price and rebuild the margin through change requests.

• Included as standard: delivery specs matched to each platform, not one master for everything.
• Included as standard: a named producer who answers the phone on shoot day.
• Included as standard: a locked shooting script before any kit is booked.
• Included as standard: day-rate transparency with no post-shoot surprises.

Five ways factory films projects go wrong

Most failed video projects fail for the same handful of reasons. These are the ones we plan against.

• Briefing a format instead of an outcome: Asking for a two-minute corporate video is a specification, not a brief. Start from what has to change in the viewer's mind.
• Approving a script by committee: Every extra approver adds a message. Nominate one decision maker and let them arbitrate.
• Shooting without a distribution plan: A film with no media plan and no owner on the marketing side quietly dies on a shared drive.
• Underestimating audio: Viewers forgive soft focus. They abandon a video with bad sound within seconds.

Working with us

We are a Mumbai production company that works to a written scope, a fixed schedule and an agreed deliverable list. Briefs come in from marketing heads, founders, HR leads and agency partners, and all of them get the same first step: a conversation about the outcome.

If a video is not the right answer, we will say so. That has cost us projects and won us clients.
