Scripting is the Spark

At DC Collective we produce compelling video content from start to finish. The video scripting process is where it starts. The script is what defines the vision and holds it all together. You might say the video script is equal parts roadmap and recipe.

When most people think of a script, they think of dialogue. Video scripts include dialogue, but that’s just the beginning.

The script is the DNA of the video project. It outlines what happens and when. Whether it’s live-action production, editorial, animation, VFX, or finishing — the script is what ties it all together. Scripting helps not only bring the vision to light — it keeps you on time, on budget, and on point.

Part of the reason we love the scripting process is that it is where the blueprint is created. Before the script is created, your project exists only as electrical impulses jumping from neuron to neuron and perhaps some raw ingredients.

Scripting is a bit like composing music. It doesn’t create the sounds. It decides which instruments are to be played. It determines when, where, and how they’ll be played. The script is the motor that drives the video production.

Video scripting is about:

• Capturing the vision and motive.
• Organizing the timeline.
• Establishing dialogue.
• Streamlining filming.

Well-done video scripting helps us make the most of the creative process. It helps ensure no precious ideas fall between the cracks or get lost in the couch cushions. It also ensures that filming and production are done efficiently with minimal wasted resources.

Every project we work on, however simple and small or large and complex — undergoes a thorough scripting process to ensure optimal results.

Our mission is to generate original content that will knock you and your target audience out of their shoes and socks. The way we do it is by harnessing the massive creative power of our talented staff utilizing expert video scripting.

By the way — our repertoire is diverse here. We create everything from social media content and casual tabletop shoots to sweeping, multi-day productions. If you’re looking to grab hold of your audience by the lapels and pull them into your world for a while — we’re the people you call.
