What is the right concept for your company?

Depending on the individual challenges to be overcome, the methods and strategies used to produce the media differ.

Let’s take a closer look at the different steps of planning and organizing photo shootings.

Find a photographer and prepare for the shoot

At the top of the to-do list is the right photographer and videographer, who can implement the ideas exactly as they were thought. That sounds simple at first, but it’s important that the photographer and videographer have an understanding of what was presented in the concept. This is because it often fails with productions because the photographer or videographer cannot deliver the required media in the way they were thought of by the customer in advance. Exactly here the consultation and planning of an agency comes into play, which already in the apron thinks of having the correct partners in the team. To the photographer comes frequently still the reservation of the photo studio, from production assistance in addition, from Visagisten, stylists and naturally Models as well as Influencern.

In the search for the right photographer, it is important that not only the ideas are implemented, but also that all times are kept. From the planning of the team around make-up artists, stylists, models and assistants up to planned production dates, delivery dates and of course also the meetings in between.

In the concept approach it is often a question of finding out who can implement the concept meaningfully close to the customer.

In addition to photography, there are usually post-processing steps as well as booking the photo studio. No matter whether product or advertising photography, many photo shootings take place within closed rooms to always create the same lighting situations. For example, for online shops where every picture must look the same. Keyword: Corporate Identity.

Organize and plan photo shoot

The planning and organization of the photo shooting takes place directly after the concept or strategies and methods and the photographer search. When planning the photo shoot, it is important to get all team members at the same time and in the same place. Depending on the complexity of the production this is a more or less big challenge for the agency. With any production over 5 persons, the travel management around such a photo shooting is already much planning. Who plans such a photo shooting without experience, has to do fast with risks and disadvantages, because with such a production much money can get lost.

Worst Case Scenario

Various actors come together, photo studio, marketing from your company, photographer, videographer, makeup artist and stylist. A lot of parameters have to be taken into account in such a photo shoot, which can of course also cause a lot of trouble if the planning does not run smoothly. Worst case scenario 1, the flight is booked for the wrong city. Worst case scenario 2, the whole team is on site and the model is missing and nobody can reach the model. Worst case scenario 3, everything fits perfectly until the last minute, suddenly the right gimbal is missing to stabilize the images. Worst case scenario 4, much simpler, the camera battery runs out.
