Aperture Videography
Think of us as your in-house video production company.
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel” – Maya Angelou
Aperture Videography is a professional video production company based in Naperville, IL that serves both local and national corporate clients. Our company provides exceptional value to our clients by combining the principles of Psychology, exceptional storytelling, experienced video/audio staff, and technical competence into each video we create.
We understand the underlying anatomy of high-quality video content – lighting, set design, acting, cinematography, and editing. But, without feelings and emotions – your video won’t engage, motivate, and leave a lasting impression on your audience. Think of your favorite movie and how it made you feel…
Aperture Videography is hyper-focused on creating professional content that will take your business, your story, your products, your ideas, and your testimonials to the next level – the human level. We are proud to be a minority-owned business that values (in no specific order) client relations, creativity, collaboration, execution, transparency, diversity, attention to detail, and meeting deadlines.
Equipment Kit
We’re geared up for any corporate video job.
We know through first-hand experience that using the right tools for the job is vital to producing high-quality, corporate videos. That’s why we choose to use only the best. In house, we have several, professional grade 4K and High Definition (HD) video cameras, cine lens, and a variety of lighting options. We love using Canon video cameras due to their color science that makes people and skin tones look very natural and pleasing. We also use tripods, slides, gimbals, and drones to exponentially enhance the cinematic appeal of your footage. Audio is just as important as video. We utilize professional grade shotgun microphones and/or wireless lavalier microphones to ensure a clear, enjoyable listening experience. Our go-to microphone is an industry workhorse, the Senneheiser MKH-416.
Video Production Process
What does working with us look like?
Pre Production
Our goal in pre-production is to fully understand the objectives of the video we are creating, the intended audience, and what will captivate that audience. We sketch out the video and key shots in a slideshow that our clients may choose to review and provide their input. If scripts or interview questions are required, we draft up content aligned to your story and goals, and request approval before filming day.
Production
Production is where all the preparation and planning pays off. Our team of creative professionals are armed with the latest video production tools to execute on the creative vision for your video project. We travel to film on-site or in-studio.
Post Production
After filming, we work quickly to assemble raw footage and audio into a draft of your video. We provide two rounds of revisions that fall within reasonable expectations and within the scope of the original video concept. Additional revisions can be billed out on an hourly basis. Finally, we ensure final videos are optimized for delivery across social media, web, and paid media advertisement.
