FAQ

Our process is designed to be collaborative, iterative, and systematic. We will provide you with ample opportunity to provide technical and creative feedback throughout the process to ensure that you are happy with the final product and that you have your own voice in the work. From the outset, we will dive deep into the technical details of your project, your target audience, and your goals. We will help you to extract the core message and translate that message into compelling visuals. If a design isn't working for you but you aren't sure why, we will prepare multiple design solutions for you to explore.

 

We don't just create images and videos. Our role is to help you crystallize your core message and to help guide you on your journey to discovering the solutions that will fulfill your goals.

All projects in our studio are led by our PhD-trained owner, Brad Krajina. Brad has a PhD in chemical engineering from Stanford and over 10 years of research experience at the interface between engineering, cancer biology, and chemistry. He has a deep and broad interdisciplinary expertise and loves to engage with scientists, engineers, and medical professionals from diverse technical backgrounds. Brad has collaborated with cancer biologists, engineers, chemists, physicists, educators, journalist, and clinicians in both scientific research and scientific visualization settings.

We will meet you on a highly technical level to help you translate your vision into a compelling visual story. We will engage with you to ensure we understand both the science and your goals, and if necessary, we will extensively research your specific area of expertise to fill any gaps.

Our specialty is in engaging in high-impact, challenging communication problems with highly technical underpinnings and translating those highly technical ideas into engaging and accessible visuals that can inform and inspire audiences with a diverse range of expertise.

Our science explainer film productions include full-service script writing, voice-over, and sound design. We will work with you to identify the level of sound design service required for your target platform and help you create a soundscape that will fulfill your needs.

Most of our clients need bespoke solutions that are specifically tailored to their product, organization, research, or brand. As such, we typically provide exclusive, worldwide copyright licenses that enable you, and no other third parties, to use the final video or image in all of your intended use-cases. We do typically ask for a limited license back to use the work on our own website and social media accounts for promotional purposes. We are happy to work with you to identify the licensing that meets your needs and to prepare the appropriate licensing agreement.

We price our projects based on a per-project flat rate that is agreed upon with our clients upfront. Our rates are defined by the scope of the project, the deliverables, and the value the work will bring to your organization. We don't charge hourly rates, and our production process is built with iterative design included in our services.
