In this blog series, Sohonet explores 5 ways to cut costs and save time during the post-strike recovery of productions. In this 2nd blog, we look at the importance of keeping off-set creatives and crew members informed and engaged - and the remote video collaboration tools that can enhance your communication.

The challenge

With heightened time and budget concerns, everyone’s under pressure to get shots right first time – and make sure what’s captured on-set is aligned with what’s needed in post.

For this seamless collaboration to happen, creatives must review early assemblies to ensure their vision is being translated and post-production teams must provide feedback on any missing shots or coverage. With teams scattered across different locations, communication is key.

The Fix:

You need a collaboration toolkit that enables studio teams and off-set stakeholders to stay connected with the production creatives -- ensuring everyone remains aligned on vision -- no matter their location or schedule. Whether they need to easily review dailies in their own-time or view footage together in real-time and collaborate over details - you need to provide secure and seamless offline and real-time viewing options to suit both use cases.

“You can learn a lot in the editing room… figuring out which of your takes were used and which ones were not, really gives you a sense of what the editor needs.” David Mackie, Director of Photography
