Our Process & Methodology

You need more than
a one size fits all approach.

Since you and your audience is unique, we start with a facilitated, deep-dive discovery process. This helps us define the core problems that need to be solved and to identify the proper content solutions. During this process, we will ask a bunch of questions about your organization, the problems you face, and the community you serve. The insights we uncover during discovery help us create a clear blueprint for the project. This saves us time during creation and production, especially during revisions, because everyone is in alignment on the direction, audience, and goals of the project.

Investing in preproduction
Creates extra content.

By planning our projects to maximize our time in the field, we can discover opportunities to create additional content.
We’re experts at finding deeper stories. As we plan our project, we are constantly on the search for ways to expand our reach and develop content to get more value out of our filming time. This could mean finding ways to extend stories to cover different topics or to discover completely new stories that could serve as additional content. We will also suggest ways to expand the use of the content we create and to repurpose it for different purposes and platforms.

We’re flexible and we move quickly.

Bigger isn’t always better. We excel at working with smaller teams. A Bowl of Rice is proud of the fact that our core team, works directly in the field during production without the need to rely on large crews to help convey our stories. Although it my seem counter-intuitive, larger teams can hinder content creation, especially during production. This is why we prefer to create smaller, more intimate teams of multi-talented individuals, which gives us several advantages.
It makes our process more efficient and more connected. We’re not pushing the project from desk to desk, then handing off to another team. Our producers and script writers will be on location directing, our editors will be on set creating images for the final edit. This saves us valuable time, which leads to better results.
Not to mention the fact that fewer crew members makes us more flexible with travel, as we’re able to quickly cover more ground and locations, and helps us better adapt to changes or discoveries we make as we create. Smaller teams also help keep our filming subjects more authentic and at ease, as they’re not being forced into high pressure sets under the gaze of too many strangers.

High level production value helps your project get noticed.

When possible, using high-quality cinematic lighting, while still working with a small crew, makes our subjects look and feel their best and deliver natural performances. These subtle additions of production value show to our audience that we’ve invested valuable resources in telling the story, which will help encourage them to continue watching. We use a variety of visual tools, including high quality cameras, arial photography, wireless audio, to add production value to the project, which will help grab and hold the audience’s attention. Even though we’re capturing authentic images, using this approach means the footage can be used for other commercial marketing material.

We are safe & effective
when filming on location.

Our filming often takes place in active environments where people are busy doing important work or living their lives. We have the right tools and crew to ensure that when we film on location we won’t be greatly impacting or disrupting business. We know to plan for unpredictable conditions and to prepare an environment that is safe for everyone involved in the project.

Our Post production team
Is fast and efficient.

We’re experts at saving time and delivering quickly. Much of the work from our earlier planning and creative process helps us save time and resources during post production, as we go into the edit with a clear blueprint for our final products.
Our post production team is based in-house, we don’t need to rely on outside vendors, which speeds up our turnaround time and helps us easily create clips and cutdowns of our original content for different platforms and uses.
Revising edits can be an area that eats time if it’s not well managed. Changes that seem small, can cause hours worth of rendering and file exchanges. Instead, we structure our revisions into two meetings where we present the video and receive your direct feedback.
