No intake forms. No automated responses. Just a direct line to James, who will read your message, think about it, and respond within 24 hours with something actually useful.
You don't need a polished project deck or a confirmed budget to reach out. Tell us what you're working on the brand, the goal, the rough idea of what you want to make happen. We'll figure out the rest in conversation.
We take on a limited number of projects each year, so reaching out early is the best way to get on the schedule for the season you're targeting.
James reads your message and responds personally. No auto-responder. If it sounds like a good fit, he'll suggest a quick call to dig in.
↳ Within 24 hoursA 30–45 minute conversation about your brand, the goal, the audience, and what you want the film to do. No pressure. Just listening and honest feedback.
↳ 30–45 minIf it's a fit, you'll get a clear proposal deliverables, timeline, investment, and creative direction. No vague quotes, no scope creep surprises later.
↳ Within a weekOnce you're in, pre-production starts immediately. Locations, logistics, creative brief — all locked before anyone picks up a camera.
↳ Production beginsNo. Most great projects start with a rough idea and a goal, not a spec document. Reach out early, the earlier you're in the conversation, the better we can shape something that actually fits your budget and timeline.
For brand films and commercial campaigns, 6–10 weeks minimum is ideal. Outdoor and location shoots often need more time for permits and scouting. If you're targeting a specific season or event, reach out as early as possible, peak months fill quickly.
Every project is scoped individually. Brand films typically start in the $5k–$15k range. Commercial campaigns with multi-format deliverables vary by scope. The best way to get an accurate number is to tell us what you need, we'll give you a clear, detailed proposal, not a vague estimate.
Yes — we've filmed in 20+ countries and regularly travel for the right project. Travel costs are factored into the proposal upfront, so there are no surprises. If your location is remote, challenging, or international, we've probably been somewhere like it before.
James Turner, directly — from first message to final delivery. Depending on scope, he brings in trusted crew for shoot days, but the creative direction, client communication, and final decisions all stay with one person. No hand-offs, no account managers, no surprises.
We'll tell you honestly. If your project doesn't match what we're best at, or if our calendar doesn't line up, we'll say so clearly and if we know someone who'd serve you better, we'll point you there. No awkward runaround.
