PIKAY PRODUCTIONS

It always starts with an idea. This can be a story for a commercial or the desire to capture a wedding for eternity. But it can also be a belief in a product, a brand or a company or the plan to share your knowledge on a topic with the world via social media.

It is our task, gladly together with you, to translate these approaches into a meaningful concept for the medium of film. It is particularly important to fully exploit the massive advantages and potential of using a film, especially compared to other media, in order to achieve your goals.

We then put together a team, the size of which varies greatly depending on the production. We have all the necessary contacts from almost 10 years of experience in the industry and can draw on a network of experienced professionals. We then find among our contacts the absolute best cast for each specific position, each type of production and also each budget.

The core team consists of the director and "Director of Photography" (DoP), who are responsible for the scenic staging and technical image design and who have accompanied you in your project from the start.

Depending on the type of production, actors have to be cast and booked, locations visited and filming permits obtained. All technical equipment must be provided and transported safely to the filming locations.

Finally, it comes to the implementation / realization. This is where our Director of Photography/Cinematography (DOP) comes into play. He has the task of converting the contents of the script into images using suitable camera technology. In addition to camera work, he works closely with the director.

The DOP also makes the decision in advance which technology is required and which camera system is used. In addition to cameras and optics, there is a variety of other technology that may be required. These include film lights, microphones, external recorders, drones, gimbals, camera cranes, sliders and director's monitors. On the days of shooting, our team will ensure that all the technology and accessories are on site and that the equipment is set up and converted in the right place at all times in accordance with the director's and DOP's instructions.
