Booking
At Obscura, we ensure your vision aligns with both your artistry and brand. To maintain consistency and treat every client with equal respect, regardless of budget, co-founders Ziggy and Matt personally handle every initial consultancy call.
How We Work
1
Consultation & Vision Planning
We schedule an initial call to understand your vision and determine how to bring it to life within your budget.

Pre-Production & Scheduling
A pre-production fee green lights pre-production to start on your project, additionally this allows us to soft pencil in a shoot date. If your shoot is over a month away, we begin development exactly one month prior.

Concept Development
Whether within our team or through our trusted freelance network, we craft a treatment aligned with your vision. We then schedule a follow-up call for approval.

Budget & Contracts
The following week, we prepare a budget sheet and finalise contracts. Once signed and paid fees, we secure all necessary rentals and resources.
5
Production Begins
From here, we handle everything leading up to the shoot date.

FAQs
Do you handle everything in-house or do you work with external freelancers?
We do both, at Obscura if the project has a need for an external job we will always guarantee the trust and quality of that person we've outsourced. In other cases, for lower budget projects we outsource to a network of freelancers we trust, however, one HOD will always oversee a project to make sure you're getting the quality you deserve.
How do I get started with your production team?
See the Booking pagePlease see the (booking section) of the website to understand our process in full. If you still have questions, please don't hesitate to email us at: team@obscuramotion.com
How do you ensure quality of the final product?
In bigger shoots most of our team will be involved as well as trusted freelance roles to ensure quality is met, before the shoot, during the shoot and after the shoot.
How do you handle revisions or feedback?
See the Policy pageWe use a website called Frame.io to upload a rough cut, which you can timestamp comments on so we can amend, we can also comment back to discuss our point of view for a certain choice within the edit. We offer a maximum of 2 free revisions, after this we charge per revision (Please see the POLICY page to understand in full).
What equipment does your production team use?
At the moment we have access to 2x a7iv's and 1 fx3+ lenses and accessories, however, often we rent out from various rental connections we have to use equipment that may fit your vision better.
What happens if something goes wrong or there's a delay?
See the Policy pageWe never play the blame game. We will always work together with you to determine the problem and promptly rectify the issue (Please see POLICY section for full detail as sometimes the problems may be out of our control).
Do you have experience working across different industries?
Yes we also shoot corporate jobs as well as ads and our main focus is Music video, we're always open to jump on a call and discuss no matter the industry.
Can you work within my budget?
YES, this is a major Obscura USP, we offer a competitive price that isn't comparable to any other production team in the industry. We also strive to work with every budget as we have a team of freelancers working under Obscura Motion.
How do you determine pricing for a project?
On our first introductory call we will always ask what you're willing to put into the project instead of the other way round, we will then look to develop an idea, putting a treatment together to abseil to your budget.
What is your typical turnaround time?
For the editing process it will depend on the size, budget, timing and deliverables of the project, however, this can be determined on a call.
What makes Obscura Motion different from other production teams?
Obscura Motion is a production team who focuses on you as an artist and how you can develop your OWN craft. Over the last 2 years we've achieved amazingly unique videos which represent specific artist's themselves. We also love to give people a chance, all freelancers who are trusted to work under/ with us, are not onboard because of their reputation, they're with us because they've displayed skills that we would like to develop and nurture. On top of all of this, the proof is in the videos we produce, these videos all display the ability within our team.
