VICEROY FILMS :: services

Welcome to Viceroy Films - film and video production

THE CONCEPT

An idea can come from anywhere...The French author Marcel Proust is said to have considered fashioning a novel based on a single train schedule...For the wide range of ideas that clients bring us, we fashion a response that helps give each project the right identity.

• Discussion of Project Goals
• Treatment/Story Consultation
• Pre-Interviews
• Rights and Clearances
• Story/Script Outlines

Translating the inspiration for your project into the blueprint for a television show, documentary, film or corporate video is a multilayered process. The elements that come into play serve to push the project into more tangible territory.

• Script Writing
• Story Analysis
• Script Breakdown
• Storyboarding
• Location Scouting
• Budget/Cost Breakdown
• Casting

A project's ultimate success or failure is largely determined in pre-production. Our expertise is in putting the various elements in place to help ensure a smoothly run project.

• Crew Assignment
• Insurance Assessment
• Location and Talent Release Agreements
• Equipment Rentals
• Talent Contracts
• Audience Analysis
• Program Comps
