FAQs

Why should we work with Comprehensive Media?

Our approach is different from the average video production company. You’ll see it from our simple process and strategy development to our exclusive six-point guarantee. In short, we help you achieve results.

Which industries do you serve?

Our expertise and 28 years of experience allow us to serve any industry. Through the years we’ve worked with faith-based organizations, non-profits, record labels, and businesses in home services, corrections, food services, retail and automotive industries, just to name a few.

Do you travel outside of Nashville?

Our clients take us all over the world. From Africa and Thailand to Newark and Arizona, we go were the action takes us. We load up in our custom production van filled with cool gear and brimming with creativity, and hit the road.

Should I hire a local videographer?

For some businesses, hiring a local videographer is a good option. It really comes down to your needs and ability.

A local videographer may give you a nice-looking video, but your team will have to lead on everything else, from messaging and strategy to connecting the creative back to your business objectives.

We find that most businesses don’t have the expertise or bandwidth to lead successful video projects alone.

And the larger your project, the more crucial it is to work with an experienced partner who can deliver the right video the first time, minimizing your risks.

What’s your process like?

Our process is focused on delivering the most impact for your business.

  • Every project starts with a conversation to understand your message, audience and business objectives.
  • We prepare your proposal, which outlines our suggested approach and includes: a guaranteed not-to-exceed budget, schedule, creative, strategy and more. Then we’ll sit down with you in person to review it and get your approval.
  • We’ll oversee and communicate all the project details so you’re never in the dark.
  • During editing, you’ll receive access to our online review platform so you can share your feedback throughout the process.
How much time will I need to invest in my project?

That depends a lot on you, your culture as well as the size and scope of your project. We ask you to provide brand messaging and identity documents and give you the opportunity to be on-set for your shoot. You’ll also have a chance to provide your feedback and approval at each step of your edit.

Why shouldn’t we write our own script?

We see your video as an investment, one we are best equipped to protect. Writing video scripts and great sales copy is very different that other writing skills. The other reason we write your script is perspective. Our fresh, outside perspective helps us set your brand apart from the crowd.

How do you help me get a great video on my tight budget?

From the very beginning, we’ll help you clarify your message, audience and business objectives. And that saves you time and money by eliminating false starts and midstream changes of direction. 

We guide you every step of the way and also suggest specific ways to help you reduce the overall per-minute cost of your video.

How long will it take to produce my video?

Turn around time can take as little as 3 – 4 weeks for smaller projects to several months for larger projects. Regardless of which camp your project falls into, our proposal includes an estimate of production time.

What if my team isn’t good on camera?

We typically will use your team members in an interview environment where they are speaking with our director from their professional experience and / or in an environment where we’re filming what they do every day. 

We won’t ask your team to be actors or spokespersons unless they have experience and we feel they will come across confidently on-camera. Regardless, we find that once a team member spends time with us on set, uneasiness tends to melt away.

What if I need revisions?

We build revisions into the process by setting aside time for them in the scope of the project. If revisions exceed the initial scope, we’ll let you know. Regardless, you’ll never pay extra costs unless you pre-approve them.

Do you offer a guarantee?

  • Your video will be on budget.
  • If we make a mistake, we will fix it, free of charge.
