How to Plan an End-to-End Video Production in Spain (From Brief to Final Master)
A practical workflow for international teams: development, pre-production, shoot, and post—so your project lands on time, on budget, and on brief.
From our base in Mallorca, Spain, we support US/UK/EU teams through every stage—capturing multiple looks (coast/city/mountain) with minimal company moves and predictable days. This guide shows the exact pipeline we use for film & video projects.
Why end-to-end matters for brands, agencies & studios
One scope, one calendar, one budget control. Right-sized units (no over-crewing), efficient multi-look days, and approvals on-set or remotely. Plan deliverables in pre-pro (aspect ratios, captions, versions) to avoid costly pickups.
