Five steps. No surprises.
Post-production goes wrong when scope is vague and feedback is unstructured. So a Zenith Global FX project runs the same five steps every time — each with a clear output, so you always know where the work stands.
-
01
Brief
You tell us what you're making — the format, the footage or assets you have, what needs to happen to them, and when you need it. Rough briefs are welcome; part of our job is asking the right questions.
We reply with a written scope: what's included, how many revision rounds, the timeline, and the price. Nothing starts, and nothing is owed, until you approve it.
Output → a written scope you can say yes or no to.
-
02
Look development
Before full production, we establish the direction in miniature: style frames for a grade, a test composite for an effect, a short motion test for graphics. This is where taste decisions get made — cheaply, early, and together.
Output → an approved visual direction that production is measured against.
-
03
Production
The agreed shots and sequences are built. On longer projects you see work-in-progress at scheduled checkpoints rather than radio silence, so course corrections happen mid-stream instead of at the end.
Output → work-in-progress you can react to, on a schedule you know in advance.
-
04
Review
You review at delivery quality — full resolution, correct frame rate. Notes are consolidated per round so feedback stays coherent, and each round closes with a clear list of what changed. The number of rounds is the one agreed in the scope; more are always possible, priced before they start.
Output → an approved final, reached in the agreed number of rounds.

05
Delivery
Masters are rendered to your delivery spec — codecs, aspect ratios, durations and naming as required by your platform or broadcaster. Files arrive organized and versioned, and project handover happens as agreed in the scope.
Output → finals you can publish without touching, and an organized archive.
The process starts with one email
Describe the project in a few sentences. We'll take it from there — starting with the questions, not the invoice.
