International travel series comes to life in post-production
Story Productions completes the post-production on an ambitious 10-part travel series, Culinary Escapes, for Californian production company Hoplite Entertainment
Beignets with coffee in the morning, gumbo for lunch and a bar crawl down Bourbon Street as the sun sets… a dream itinerary that can only come together in one place: New Orleans. It is just one of nine iconic destinations featured in a travel series, Culinary Escapes, presented by Emmy-award winning travel experts Christina Cindrich and Kerri Zane.
In each half-hour episode, Christina and Kerri travel to a destination to visit exclusive 5-star hotels and dine on world-class meals. Their adventures take them from Asia and Central America to gourmet hotspots on home turf in the USA. They cook with Michelin-starred chefs and explore the local culture in each destination.
Our partner production company in Los Angeles,
Hoplite Entertainment, commissioned Story Productions to carry out all the post-production on the series. In just a few months, we transformed hours of raw footage into a stunning, polished and entertaining series.
We delve into more details in this case study about the post-production work for the travel series, but in a nutshell it involved:
- Script writing and research
- Directing and recording voice over
- Editing
- Sourcing music and sound mixing
- Creating series logo and branding
- Motion graphics
- Colour grading
Story Productions loved the challenge of bringing Hoplite’s vision to life in post-production in our São Paulo edit suites. Thanks to technology, we were able to work remotely but closely with Hoplite. They had input every step of the way, from fine tuning each script to reviewing the final cut for each episode.
A high-speed online workflow involved working simultaneously on different episodes at different stages of post-production. Online video review tools and a static IP address with large upload/download speed facilitated this process.
Our post-production team are usually the last step in a production process that involves us right from the very start, at the conception and scripting phase, whether it’s for
corporate web series or
educational films. But jumping in at the post-production phase was an equally creative challenge. How can we help you bring your vision to life in post-production?
