Grabbing the attention of your audience can be a tremendous challenge in the age of infinite digital distractions.
But here at James Drake Films, we have an advocate against distraction- Storytelling. Creating a production that grips your audience and never lets go is much more than sticking an expensive cameras in the hands of an experienced crew member (though that’s still a necessary– and fun part). Storytelling with us is a journey of discovery and investigation.
It takes on different forms: a 30 second television spot needs a rapid arc that tells a lot about key characters, places, and items in moments. A longer documentary has the time to evoke strong emotions while informing the audience of the factual issues that support the arc. A 3 minute web spot may have a mix of quick development and “a-ha” moments that take vary in speed and delivery throughout.
But the same principle applies for every production: grab the audience and never let them go, and people like stories.
Developing your production into something distinct and amazing is a process, a journey, and a discovery of possibilities and potentials. Here’s where our experience plays in. After involvement in countless productions, we have refined our taste and adapted our model to custom tailor a potent through-line for your production that adheres the whole project together. This guide trains and molds each decision we make creatively and logistically. It sets a pinpoint target for the team to hit, and with the combined experience in various areas we can capture amazing.
