@analyst1 client happiness is optimized by all successful businesses. For truth, academics might be able to go in that direction. Efficiency is not achieved until you are on your boss

I enjoy the work as well, and started as an analyst. Was wondering the same thing recently

Production Companies in Mexico City

Anyone have any recommendations for production and/or post companies in Mexico City? Looking to shoot and edit there to try and make the budget work.

Curious to hear how others create a SOW for a video where the concept isn’t created yet. e.g. a startup asks for a proposal/estimate for a 60-second brand video with little input and a vague budget range. We’ll create the concept and produce it. My Co. seems to have challenges with getting the SOW right: either goes very basic or doesn’t scope enough because creative development is baked in but eats up time. How do you do it?
