A Telefilm by definition is a film made for a television network, as compared to theatrical films which are made explicitly for movie theaters. Usually produced and distributed by or to TV network, these are longer in length than a short film and shorter than a feature film. Which means any film smaller than 90 minutes and above 40 minutes can be called a telefilm. Any film shorter than 40 minutes (including opening and closing credits) is called a short film.

OUR PROCESS WORKFLOW
Our work process is divided in three major stages, before we hand out the final product to you.
Pre-production
Laying the right groundwork is essential to developing a great video. Pre-production is where we figure out the best game plan for your concept. We work on storyline, the look/feel and style, we write the script, cast any actors, decide on location and set design, and lock down all the other details involved with how the actual video is going to look, sound, and perform.
Production
We’re rolling! Now that we have the road map developed in the pre-production stage, it’s time to put it all together in front of the cameras. This is where our professional crew of director of photography, camera operators, sound engineers, and lighting techs and art directors do what they do best – film a great video.
Post Production
If production is putting all the ingredients together to bake the cake from the recipe developed in pre-production, then post-production is putting the icing on that cake and making it look irresistibly delicious. Our editorial post-production team kicks in to shape your story, handle color-correction, dubbing, clean up the audio, add music, and in general make sure your video looks exactly like we planned in pre-production. It’s at this stage that you’ll see the first cut.
Final Revisions/ Output
Once you’ve seen the first cut, you’ll have a chance to share your thoughts with us. There is one round of revisions allowed at this stage, within reasonable expectations and within the scope of the original video concept. With the final cut complete and your approval signed-off, we create high quality files of your video that can be used for a variety of formats, be it for the web, OTT channels, film festivals or broadcast television.
