How the mini-docs get made

Deeper B-roll

ADAMA lets me know the recipients ahead of time. I quietly capture more in-depth B-roll during their studio visit. Nothing gets tipped off.

One session

Interview and B-roll in the same place, so the artist only gives up one block of time.

3 script options

After the interview, I send 3 script variations and ADAMA picks the direction before the edit starts.

Edit & deliver

Rough cut, then final cut (2 revision rounds). Delivered ready for the screening and online, with graded footage for the archive.

04 / Workflow & terms

How we'll work together

Scheduling

10 business days' notice for shoot dates. Shorter notice is fine when I'm available, at no extra charge.

Turnaround

Short-form and salon videos: 3 business days. Event and opening recaps: 5 business days. Nominee spotlights: 7 business days. Mini-docs: 3 weeks after the final shoot. Evergreen video: 2 weeks.

Revisions

2 rounds per deliverable, reviewed in the cut. Extra rounds at $85/hr.

Using your hours

Request by email. I confirm the hour estimate before starting, so nothing gets drawn down without your OK.

Footage

Finals and color-graded footage delivered by Dropbox, organized by date and program. I keep a backup for 90 days after delivery.

Usage rights

ADAMA has full rights to final exports and delivered color-graded footage across its digital platforms, marketing, campaigns and institutional materials. Editing project files are not included. I keep the right to show the work in my portfolio.

Additional costs

Standard camera, audio and lighting kit is included. Travel beyond 50 miles of Atlanta, a second shooter, specialty rentals or licensed music outside my library are quoted and approved in advance.

Unused hours

Unused hours roll over within the quarter and reset at quarter end.

Agreement

6-month initial term with a scope check at 90 days, then renews quarterly. Retainer invoiced on the 1st of each month, due within 15 days, or paid quarterly up front at 5% off. Flowers x Seeds projects invoiced on delivery. Either side can end the agreement with 30 days' written notice. The retainer stays payable through the notice period, and shoots already scheduled in that window still happen.
