Interviews get a boom and a lav, not a camera mic ‘for safety’. Safety is a second recorder, not a worse microphone.
Wild tracks and room tone are shot even when the day is stills-heavy. A future cutdown will need them.
Music is licensed for the territories in the contract. A temp track that cannot be bought is not a creative direction; it is a trap.
Mix happens with picture, on speakers that resemble the client’s world — a laptop and a television, not only a suite.
We deliver stems when versions will be recut. A printed mix alone is how a six-month-later social cut sounds like a different film.
Berlinell produces commercial stills and short films from Porto. We plan the still and the motion on one plot so a campaign does not split between two vendors. The suite on Rua das Flores holds tabletop, a small cyc, and a colour desk. Location days stay on the river and in the granite streets we recce first.
