There is a good chance I will be allowed to do my first promotional video for a local hotel, I'm not doing it commercially just yet as I don't have the license, I'm doing it from the point of view to practice, build confidence, and be able to put it in my portfolio to build upon.
I have an idea on how I want to approach the video and the sort of shots that I would like, but I wanted to see if anyone else has already done this, and, if so, how do you professionally approach a job?
I'd like to draft a document/survey that I can take with me to the client that details what sort of music they would like, any specific angles they wish for the hotel to be captured etc.
I don't want to just turn up and try to figure out how and what footage I want to get. Ideally I'd like to do a consultation first of all on the first visit, take ground photos of the hotel, take my survey document and have a conversation with the client to decipher their needs, and then go away and make a plan.
Question is, what would such a survey look like or contain, does anyone use this approach when acting commercially?
I'm sorry if I'm waffling, trying to get my point across as best I can.
