Corduroy Media is a San Francisco Bay Area Video Production Company…

…dedicated to meeting the needs of our clients no matter how big or small the project. Whether you are producing a corporate video for internal use, b-roll for worldwide broadcast, or a feature length documentary we provide in-field production services to meet your needs. We specialize in on-location video production and creative direction. We effectively manage every aspect of production from creative concept, to lighting design, to directing on-screen talent. We provide a variety of formats to match your production needs and budget. We shoot in High Definition and have a number of in-house cameras including; Sony F3, Panasonic AF100, and Canon 5D and 7D.

While the right tools of the trade are critical, the most vital ingredient to a successful project is thorough planning. During pre-production planning and concept development we meet with each client and map out a project concept and proposal addressing the unique elements necessary for the success of the project. During this pre–production planning period we address the following areas:

• Goal – What is your goal for the project? ( e.g. fundraising, promotion, etc. )

• Message! – What information do you want your audience to walk away with?

• Audience – Who is your primary audience? (e.g. funders, prospective clients)

• Length – What are your length restrictions? (e.g. most effective web video is 3-5 minutes)

• Venue/format – How will people see your film or video? (web, DVD, broadcast)

After these primary questions are answered we are able to focus on style, content, timeline, budget, and logistics. Although we always begin with a very clear idea of the look, feel, and effect of our final cut, we allow room for projects to grow, change, and develop organically.

Providing a full range of production and post-production services we are able to take our projects from concept to final cut, because we offer all of these services in-house we are able to keep our services affordable.
