Everything You Need To Know About Ten West
Because you’re a company that likes keeping their costs down and their budget in the black. If you’re visiting our page, then you’re online and know how much content people consume. You know how important it is to connect with your audience and keep fresh videos and content in front of them. You can either buy the content every time, or learn how to create the content and never have to hire a production company again. Create professional level content without the professional cost.
Complete freedom and control over your photos and videos. Most companies don’t realize that many production companies will hold your footage hostage and only deliver a final video as a way to secure future income from you. Any time you want to update a video with a new clip, or create a new video using the existing footage, you will have to go through them to accomplish that and pay additional fees each time. When you make the decision to lead your own productions you will never have to pay for access to your own media archive again.
The length of time depends on how quickly you move through the syllabus. Each day of training will take a few hours. At the end of each training day, you will have tasks assigned. The next day of training occurs once you’ve completed the tasks. Each package has a minimum of 5 training days. The absolute least amount of time will be 5 business days.
It truly depends on your business needs and how your company approaches the responsibility of creating a production. Whether you have 1 person attend who will then train their colleagues and delegate tasks, or 5 people attend - such as your interns who will likely be handling some of the tasks - is up to you.
For some of our packages, such as Summer Vacation which has more technical production aspects, there is a mix of in-person training and video conferencing. All packages will include training over video conference. Some will be exclusive Video Conference training, such as the Staycation package.
After purchasing your package, and signing your contract, you will schedule your kick off meeting where we can answer any questions and get you ready for Day 1. This call should not last longer than 30 minutes, but could take up to an hour depending on how many questions you have.
The Industry Veterans who created this program will be training you! Valerie Bobo, an Emmy winning Producer, will be leading the training for preproduction, production, and social media. David Sadvari, a Los Angeles based commercial DP and editor, will be leading the training for staging your gear and editing. Both will be on set for the packages that require it.
Do you need pictures for an ecommerce site? An instructional video for your product? An informational video that uses stock video to portray the type of consulting business you have? Once you think through the type of company you have and the purpose for the content, you should be able to pinpoint the best package. Still not sure? Contact Us and we’ll walk you through the different packages to find the one that best suits your needs.
Each program has a base rate with variables that will affect the final cost. The base rate is the fee for the program, the variable rates are things your company will directly cover such as the cost of equipment rentals, 1099 contract hires, or software programs. These variable costs will be discussed and worked into a budget as we begin to build your production.

No, in order to begin the training you will need to make a 50% deposit up front. Before the final day of training, you will receive an invoice for the final 50% payment due and be charged through the original form of payment.
Yes! We encourage you to. These will be your reference materials when you are ready to continue to create your own content.
Ten West has built consulting hour credits into each package. Once you’ve completed your training, you will have additional - free - consulting hours to use over the following year. The consulting credit is there to ensure your success by offering support beyond your training program.
You can always order one of our consulting packages, which offers monthly or yearly hour totals, or you can opt to be billed on a per- hour basis.
You can use your consulting credit to revisit any part of the training program you purchased. This includes getting advice on setting up your gear, revisiting your photo or video editing training, or additional help vetting potential vendors.
Not a problem. Once you’ve purchased a package, we are happy to send replacement materials if yours accidentally get deleted or misplaced. Just send an email with a list of the materials you need and we will resend them to you.
Day 1 in each program is very similar. This day is primarily to introduce you to the program, the systems and templates you will be using, and get your creative or marketing team started on their first tasks. After that, each following day will be unique to the program but the structure is the same : training on the materials and websites you will use for that step of the program followed by tasks your team will need to accomplish before scheduling the next training day.
That depends on the package you select. Some examples may be creating log-ins for casting websites, ordering or renting any equipment you may need, or completing questionnaires that help guide you through the creative process.
It shouldn’t. Each training day will only require a few hours of your time (except for production days) and the tasks shouldn’t take more than a few additional hours at the most. As we mentioned, the programs are created to go at your own pace. You can space your training how you’d like and take 1 day or 4 days to complete your tasks.
You will! The training programs are created in a way that allows us to hold your hand and guide you every step of the way. By the time the training is complete, you will have created your first project ready to be used on your website, e commerce site, or social media channels!
