WE MAKE FILM
If you'd like to produce a corporate video, event film, or commercial, or if you simply need a camera crew, please contact our film production company in the heart of Lisbon. We have the experience, ideas, and equipment to tell stories, both big and small, authentically and in a visually captivating way.
Relative Images by the filmmaker Kris
We introduce ourselves in the official commercial showreel by the film production company of Kris.
Promotional/Commercial Video
If you want to present your brand emotionally "at a glance" and increase your brand awareness in the long term, an image film is an excellent tool. In addition to the classic TV commercial, our film production also includes branded content as an advertising format in the category of commercials.
Event Film
If you would like to provide an emotional and/or informative recap of your event, then our film production can help you.
Documentation
If you want to document longer processes or developments, a documentary-style film might be the right genre.
Camera
If you would like to retain control of the project yourself, you can simply book a cameraman or camera team with our film production company.
Independent Work
In addition, our film production company also implements independent projects, such as music videos, a YouTube cooking show, or short documentaries.

Concept & Screenplay
Based on your needs and in co-creation with you, we develop a concept or refine your idea until we have a finished screenplay.
It's worth noting, however, that a screenplay always evolves on its own. From the first draft to the final film version, there are always adjustments and changes.
The process and, of course, the costs of any film production depend on your project and your wishes. The possibilities are endless, but budgets, unfortu-nately, are not always.
Therefore, we should discuss the budget regularly during the concept development phase, without letting it stifle our ideas.
Even at a stage where not everything is finalzed, we can usually provide a fairly accurate cost estimate. And we've found that there are usually solutions without having to abandon the idea outright.
The concept is developed? Then it's on to pre-production!
Get to know
In order to deliver the very best results, we should get to know each other.
What makes you or your company unique? What strengths do you want to highlight? What sets you apart from your competitors?
Do you already have ideas about the film's objectives, budget, and intended use? Perhaps you've even outlined some initial con-tent?
Or maybe you've already clearly defined the strategy and goals of your film? What resources can you provide for the film production, and what should we contribute?
Share your ideas with us; together we'll explore what's needed for a film translation.
We look forward to exchanging ideas.
Pre-production
Before pre-production begins, we should have the first "picture lock" for the script.
This means we've agreed on a version and no further changes will be made to the script. This needs to be put into perspective.
In an ideal (film world), that would be the case, but experience shows that filmmaking is a dynamic process, and it can always happen that, for example, due to the conditions at a location, concep-tual adjustments are necessary.
In pre-production, we work to-gether to create the conditions necessary to translate our concept into image and sound. Many questions arise that require close coordination.
We discuss with you what we will handle independently and where we need your cooperation. Where can we film, and who do we need as a cameraman or camerawoman.
And what creative and technical team do we need on our side?
Our experience in film production shows that clear responsibilities and good communication within the team and with you are essential.

Filming
Our favorite part of the film pro-duction?
Definitely the filming - it's finally starting!
Thanks to thorough preparation and good communication, every-one now knows what they have to do and what our goal is.
One challenge on the day of filming is that the various departments of the film pro-duction come together. Director, lighting, set designer, makeup, and cast all converge on set, and the whole operation has to run smoothly from the start
Yes, it's true: time is always short on a filming day. On the other hand, it's precisely the details that make a film successful and special. So, despite the tight schedule, you always have to make time for things
Experience helps here: What is truly important? And where can compromises be made with a clear conscience? The experience gained from several hundred days of filming helps in answering these questions.

Post-production
In our experience, editing, along with the concept phase, is the most time-consuming step in film production.
The film now acquires much of what ultimately determines its impact: pace, rhythm and dramaturgy. How images and scenes ultimately harmonize and what effect they have only becomes apparent in the final step. This is a manual process, and in this phase, one sometimes has to let go of old ideas and explore new paths.
For us, it's also essential to seek feedback at every stage of the editing process.
Once we agree that we're on the right track, we add the final touches: We integrate the logo and/or graphics, bring in colleagues for sound design and colorgrading as needed and give your film that final polish.
We're getting into the fine details - and that's exactly what can make the difference.
Circuit & Distribution
The best film is only of use to you if it is actually watched.
We can help you with that too. Did you find us quickly? That's no coincidence!
Our expert can provide assistance to help you create the conditions for your website, YouTube video, or Instagram post to be seen. Often, simply following basic rules is enough, such as setting up YouTube channels and correctly naming and linking content.
Considering placement and dis-tribution during the concept and filming phases consistently creates synergistic effects between the production of the actual video and channel promotion efforts.
We are fans of viewing the film as a building block in an overall com-munication strategy.
This often saves a lot of work and money.
