BTS Video Production in Cincinnati OH and Denver CO
Behind The Scenes
at OMS Photography
Every finished photo or video you see from OMS starts long before anyone presses record. Here's an inside look at how our Cincinnati and Golden, Colorado studios plan, light, build, and shoot commercial photography and video production.
What Goes Into Every OMS Shoot
Every project — whether it's a single product image or a multi-day video shoot — moves through the same three stages. Here's what's actually happening behind the scenes at each one.
Pre-Production
Before a single light is turned on, our team runs kickoff meetings, builds shot lists and storyboards, scouts locations, and sources props, wardrobe, and talent. Behind the scenes, this is where the creative direction for a shoot actually gets locked in.
On Set / Production
This is the part most people picture — cameras, lighting rigs, our motion-controlled Robot Arm, and a full crew coordinating in real time. Behind the scenes, it's constant small adjustments: reflectors shifted an inch, a light dimmed a stop, a product re-styled between takes.
Post-Production
Once the shoot wraps, our retouchers, editors, and colorists take over — culling footage, retouching images, color grading, and mixing sound. Behind the scenes here is quieter, but just as critical to the final product a client sees.
