How one film was made
Strength of the Lineage
The brief
Tanya Znak makes traditional embroidered garments. The ask was a reel of children wearing them. The risk was a lookbook — pretty, forgettable, no reason to watch past two seconds.
The idea
Shoot it as inheritance, not clothing: the stitch first, the hands second, the child last. The garment arrives already carrying a hundred years, and the viewer works that out without a word of voiceover.
The craft decisions
One number would finish this section — views, saves, or what it did for her enquiries. Send it over and I’ll set it here.
How it runs
-
01 Call & brief
Twenty minutes on the product, the audience, and what the film has to make someone feel. You get a one-page treatment back.
-
02 Treatment approved
Idea, hooks, shot list and references, signed off before anything is filmed. Nothing gets discovered at delivery.
-
03 Shoot day
One session, my kit and lighting, your location or mine. Vancouver and the Lower Mainland; further on request.
-
04 Delivered in 10 days
Graded cuts at 9:16, alternate hooks, stills pulled from the footage, captions and audio picks. Two revision rounds.
Scope
Three ways to work together
Every project is quoted against its treatment — number of films, locations, talent and usage. Tell me what you're launching and you'll have a figure the same day.
| Engagement | Deliverables | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Campaign films One launch, one shoot | Treatment · scripts & shot lists · one shoot day · a set of graded 9:16 cuts with alternate hooks · stills · captions & audio · paid usage rights | On enquiry |
| Ongoing retainer Three-month minimum | A monthly slate of films · content calendar · trend & competitor watch · monthly performance read · priority on shoot dates | On enquiry |
| Agency & studio Day rate, white-label | Director / shooter / editor on your brief · works to your treatment and brand guidelines · raw or finished delivery · credited or unbranded | On enquiry |
Usage rights
Organic use is perpetual. Paid ads and whitelisting are quoted by term, and extensions are flat-rate.
Revisions
Two rounds per film. Re-shoots are quoted separately, and rarely needed once the treatment is signed.
Turnaround
Ten business days from shoot to final cut. Rush delivery available when the date allows.
Booking
50% holds the shoot date, balance on delivery. Dates typically book three weeks out.
Clients
Consistently on-brand, beautifully composed, and on time.
Collaborative, proactive, and a pleasure to brief and work with. We’ve worked with her across multiple projects and will continue to — highly recommend.
She captured the soul of my brand with elegance, precision, and an intuitive eye.
Her sense of style, rhythm, and storytelling turned a simple moment into a reel that truly speaks and moves. It’s rare to find someone who understands both the mood and the message so effortlessly. Highly recommend for anyone who wants their vision to come alive on screen.
Her creativity, attention to detail, and willingness to put in the extra effort truly set her apart.
Aleksandra consistently goes above and beyond to make sure every piece of content is exactly what we need. She took the time to understand our brand and always brought fresh ideas that made our products stand out. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and her dedication shows in the quality of every video she created. If you’re looking for a content creator who is talented, reliable, and genuinely cares about delivering exceptional results, I couldn’t recommend Aleksandra more highly.
About
A storyteller who happens to own the camera
Three years, fifty-plus films, twenty-two brands — beauty, food, fashion, culture and events. I write the idea, light it, shoot it, and cut it, which is why a two-second hook and a three-minute story hold together instead of fighting each other.
Being one person is the point. Nothing gets lost between a director's brief and an editor's timeline, briefing takes twenty minutes, and the work stays specific to your brand rather than to a format.
