Filming at Stellar Concepts
If you live in South Florida you can film your commercial at Stellar Concepts in Fort Lauderdale, FL. We shoot on Mini DV and mic you with a hidden wireless lapel microphone, ensuring the best audio results. A typical session for a 20-30 second commercial, because it must be memorized prior to filming, usually takes less than 15 minutes. You should arrive a half an hour prior to your scheduled shoot to meet with the director to go over your copy, and make any costume, script, or make-up changes.

What to wear
We suggest dark colorful clothing NO GREEN, as we shoot on a Chroma Green. We don't provide make-up artists for your shoot. There are numerous local hair salons that can help with styling and make-up. If you shoot in winter and your wearing winter type clothes and you're sending your card out in July, what are people going to think? Dress in something that you would wear year round or bring a change of clothing and shoot 2 of each message. Glasses tend to reflect the light, so if you can speak with your glasses off, that's best.

For the best results
Your commercial must be filmed in one take. We can't edit parts of your monologue together...it would look bad. Write your monologue and memorize it while you're in your car, and then practice in front of a mirror. Start with a smile, introduce yourself, have a place to smile in the middle of your monologue, and then end with a smile with an invitation for the intended audience to contact you.
Tip. Plan on shooting more than just the one commercial. Once you get started with the one card and begin to see the results you are going to want 10 cards! One to say a general thanks, one for happy holidays, one to use as a follow up, one for one product another for a service, you get the picture. It's only $100.00 for each additional commercial! All commercials should be timed to be under 30 seconds. You will have a chance to see your take and we require a verbal sign-off to move it to production.
