You start concepting new ideas around this topic and how to incorporate StudioBinder's product in creative ways.
You call a meeting with the directors and pitch your concept. You collaborate and refine the ideas. One is selected.
You get back to your desk, fill out a treatment, and start pre-production. You create a budget for approval, gather your team, make your shot list, and prep for a shoot in a day or so.
