Today we were visited by an Executive Producer who works for a company called The Mill. The Mill is one of the biggest and most award visual effects companies in the world. Won a visual effects Oscar for 'Gladiator' where they built the arena. His role is to working with the directors and helping them to achieve their vision with after effects, they also working with other production companies. Their statement is “They are artists, technologist and makers for all media, working at the frontier of visual narrative”
For us personally he said that we need to plan our videos well. The treatments should be mostly telling the story with images rather than text and giving the artist give of what it looks like rather than trying to explain it. Make sure that the treatment connects with the artist and that is specific to them this also include the production team, convince them that your idea is the best. Consider the capabilities of the artist, the length that they would be willing to go and make them feel comfortable with the idea. Storyboard the shooting process in the order of how you would shoot in rather than how it would be viewed. He said that use the time and facilities that you have to the best of your ability as this could help your video stand out from all of the others.
