members are employed by us and are always available in the company because we want to
make sure all of our employees are well qualified and an expert in the work they do, we also
make sure that all of our employees work full time in the company that way they have nothing
else distracting them. They can concentrate fully and can always be available in producing our
client promotional video. Our company, we never miss out our timescales for clearance for
anything when our client St Francis Xavier College gives us permission to go and supervise the
college before doing the promotional video they also give us a specific time and date to do this.
We ensure that we are there 30minute early on that specific dates to do the entire necessary
stuff example take pictures and video the college. We do research on our clients’ location to
know how long it will take us to get there on time and arrive back on time or if there will be any
traffic.

get there on time and return back on time, to know if there will be any traffic or not to ensure that
we get there on time, we also do weather research to know if it going to rain (to ensure that no
electricity damage is made and also so that we don’t have to bring heavy equipment because
we won’t be able to carry them under the rain or we will have to bring lot of our contributor to
help and to make sure that the equipment don’t get wet by the rain), how much it will cost us to
get there but it won’t cost us a fortune because we have our company van it will only cost us to

on the environment tonsure that it a safe environment to work in for health and safety.
