    We explain things in motion

    Je verkoop boosten, helder uitleggen wat je product doet of misschien wel in een notendop je bedrijf voorstellen? Bij Flan Caramel hebben we het ideale recept voor jouw business. Originele video animaties die scoren bij je doelgroep en aanzetten tot actie. Van concept tot verspreiding: wij zorgen voor een kickass resultaat! --- Augmentez vos ventes, expliquez clairement ce que fait votre produit ou présentez votre entreprise en quelques mots? Chez Flan Caramel, nous avons la recette idéale pour votre entreprise. Des animations vidéo originales qui marquent avec votre groupe cible et encouragent l'action. Du concept à la distribution: nous garantissons un résultat d'exception! --- Flan Caramel offers animation video and online video marketing for your corporate film. This can be standard as well as customized with an eye for your company message. Video animation is the kind of video that can convey every message in a suitable way. The use of animation within your communication ensures that you can easily and clearly convey your message to the customer. With animation it is also possible to appear fresh and dynamic, so you can communicate with more impact. We ensure that you get the most out of your animation video to achieve the desired result. --- Hoe gaan we te werk? Vanuit de Flan Caramel starten we steeds met een persoonlijk gesprek bij de klant. Daarin bespreken we hoe onze diensten op maat worden aangeboden en vanuit welke stijl en scenario we starten. Daarbij is een duidelijke bepaling van de boodschap en doelgroep heel belangrijk. Hierna gaat het animatieteam aan de slag om het storyboard te ontwerpen. Wanneer dat volledig is uitgewerkt, wordt het filmpje samen met de klant overlopen. Vervolgens starten we met grafisch design, waarbij vormen en figuren worden uitgewerkt. Éénmaal dit de goeie richting uit gaat, brengen we de animatie tot leven via de motion design. Afwerken doen we met de nodige geluidseffecten (Audio Design) en waar nodig correcties toe te voegen. Hierna is het van essentieel belang dat je video zo veel mogelijk wordt bekeken. Daarom biedt Flan Caramel ook advies aan op vlak van video marketing, hoe je filmpje zo veel mogelijk mensen kan bereiken. --- Comment procédons-nous? Depuis le Flan Caramel, nous commençons toujours par une conversation personnelle avec le client. Nous discutons de la façon dont nos services sont offerts pour mesurer et de quel style et scénario nous commençons. De plus, une détermination claire du message et du groupe cible est très importante. Après cela, l'équipe d'animation se met au travail pour concevoir le storyboard. Quand cela aura été complètement terminé, le film se terminera avec le client. Ensuite, nous commençons avec le design graphique, où les formes et les figures sont élaborées. Une fois que cela va dans la bonne direction, nous donnons vie à l'animation via la motion design. Nous finissons avec les effets sonores nécessaires (Conception Audio) et ajoutons des corrections si nécessaire. Après cela, il est essentiel que votre vidéo soit regardée autant que possible. C'est pourquoi Flan Caramel offre également des conseils dans le domaine du marketing vidéo, comment vous pouvez atteindre le plus de gens possible.  --- How we work? From the Flan Caramel we always start with a personal conversation with the customer. We discuss how our services are offered to measure and from which style and scenario we start. In addition, a clear determination of the message and target group is very important. After this, the animation team goes to work to design the storyboard. When that has been fully worked out, the film will run over with the customer. Then we start with graphic design, where shapes and figures are worked out. Once this goes in the right direction, we bring the animation to life via the motion design. We finish with the necessary sound effects (Audio Design) and add corrections where necessary. After this, it is essential that your video is watched as much as possible. That is why Flan Caramel also offers advice in the field of video marketing, how you can reach as many people as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions.


The pre-production landscape in Brussels and Belgium has undergone a significant transformation due to technological advancements in recent years. These changes have streamlined processes, enhanced creativity, and improved collaboration across the industry. Here are some key ways technology has revolutionized pre-production:

  1. Virtual Pre-visualization: Advanced 3D modeling and virtual reality (VR) tools now allow Brussels-based pre-production teams to create highly detailed, immersive previews of scenes or entire projects. This technology enables directors, cinematographers, and production designers to make informed decisions before stepping onto the set, saving time and resources.
  2. Cloud-based Collaboration: With the rise of cloud computing, pre-production professionals in Brussels can now collaborate seamlessly across different locations. Platforms like Frame.io and Dropbox Paper have become essential for sharing scripts, storyboards, and production schedules in real-time, facilitating efficient teamwork even when team members are working remotely.
  3. AI-powered Scriptwriting and Analysis: Artificial Intelligence tools are increasingly being used in the scriptwriting process. Software like Final Draft's 'Beat Board' and 'Story Map' features help writers in Brussels structure their scripts more effectively. AI-driven script analysis tools can also provide insights into pacing, character development, and market potential.
  4. Digital Location Scouting: Apps and platforms have made it possible to conduct initial location scouting virtually. This is particularly useful in a diverse city like Brussels, where filmmakers can explore potential shooting locations without physically visiting them first, saving time and travel costs.
  5. Advanced Budgeting and Scheduling Software: Specialized software like Movie Magic Budgeting and Scheduling have become more sophisticated, allowing production teams in Belgium to create detailed, flexible budgets and schedules that can be easily adjusted as project parameters change.
  6. Digital Casting Platforms: Online casting directories and video audition platforms have revolutionized the casting process. Brussels-based casting directors can now access a wider pool of talent and conduct initial auditions remotely, streamlining the selection process.

To illustrate the impact of these technological advancements, let's look at some data:

Technology Adoption Rate in Brussels (2023) Estimated Time Savings
Virtual Pre-visualization 65% 20-30% in pre-production phase
Cloud-based Collaboration Tools 85% 15-25% in overall production time
AI-powered Scriptwriting Tools 40% 10-15% in script development
Digital Location Scouting 70% 30-40% in location scouting time

These technological advancements have not only improved efficiency but also allowed for greater creativity and innovation in pre-production. As Brussels continues to establish itself as a hub for film and media production in Europe, embracing these technologies will be crucial for staying competitive in the global market.

However, it's important to note that while technology has brought numerous benefits, the human element remains crucial in pre-production. The most successful projects in Brussels still rely on the unique cultural insights, creative vision, and interpersonal skills of experienced pre-production professionals to bring stories to life.



Pre-production needs can vary significantly between different types of projects in Brussels, each requiring unique approaches and considerations. Let's break down the key differences for commercials, feature films, and music videos:

Project Type Key Pre-Production Needs
Commercials
  • Short timeline (usually 2-4 weeks)
  • Focus on brand message and target audience
  • Location scouting for iconic Brussels backdrops
  • Casting for diverse, locally representative talent
  • Compliance with Belgian advertising regulations
Feature Films
  • Extended pre-production phase (3-6 months or more)
  • Comprehensive script breakdown and storyboarding
  • Extensive location scouting across Brussels and beyond
  • Complex casting process for lead and supporting roles
  • Detailed budgeting and financing plans
  • Coordination with the Brussels Film Office for permits
Music Videos
  • Moderate timeline (usually 2-6 weeks)
  • Creative concept development aligned with the artist's vision
  • Choreography and performance rehearsals
  • Stylized location scouting in trendy Brussels neighborhoods
  • Wardrobe and prop sourcing from local designers

While these project types share some common pre-production elements like budgeting, scheduling, and crew hiring, they differ significantly in scope, creative focus, and regulatory considerations. For instance, commercials in Brussels must navigate the bilingual nature of the city, often requiring productions in both French and Dutch. Feature films might leverage Belgian tax shelter incentives, necessitating additional financial planning. Music videos, on the other hand, might focus more on capturing Brussels' vibrant music scene and cultural diversity.

According to the Brussels Film Office, there was a 20% increase in commercial productions and a 15% rise in feature film projects in Brussels in 2023, indicating a growing demand for diverse pre-production expertise in the city. This trend underscores the importance of tailoring pre-production strategies to each project type while leveraging Brussels' unique cultural and logistical advantages.



Pre-production is a crucial phase in any video or film project, and in Brussels, with its rich cultural heritage and thriving media industry, the process is both exciting and complex. Let's break down the key stages involved in pre-production for a typical project in the Belgian capital:

  1. Concept Development and Script Writing: This initial stage involves brainstorming ideas, developing the concept, and writing the script. In Brussels, many productions take advantage of the city's unique blend of European and Belgian influences to create compelling narratives.
  2. Budget Planning and Financing: Securing funding is critical. Brussels offers various funding opportunities, including the Brussels-Capital Region's Screen.Brussels fund, which supports audiovisual productions in the region.
  3. Location Scouting: Brussels provides a diverse range of settings, from historic architecture to modern cityscapes. Location scouts explore the city to find the perfect backdrops that align with the script and director's vision.
  4. Casting: Hiring actors and extras is next. Brussels has a vibrant acting community, and many productions benefit from the city's multilingual talent pool.
  5. Crew Assembly: Building a skilled team is essential. Brussels boasts a wealth of experienced film professionals, from cinematographers to sound technicians.
  6. Equipment and Technology Selection: Choosing the right gear is crucial. Brussels is home to several high-quality equipment rental companies specializing in cutting-edge film technology.
  7. Storyboarding and Shot Lists: These visual aids help plan each scene. Many Brussels-based artists and illustrators collaborate with production teams during this stage.
  8. Production Design: This includes set design, costumes, and props. Brussels' rich artistic community and proximity to European fashion capitals contribute to high-quality production design.
  9. Logistics and Scheduling: Organizing the shooting schedule and managing logistics is critical. In Brussels, this often involves coordinating with local authorities for permits, especially when filming in public spaces.
  10. Legal and Insurance: Securing necessary permits, contracts, and insurance is vital. Brussels has specific regulations for film productions, and it's essential to comply with local laws.
  11. Rehearsals: Conducting read-throughs and rehearsals with the cast helps refine performances before shooting begins.

According to a 2023 report by Screen.Brussels, pre-production typically accounts for 25-30% of a project's total timeline in the Brussels region. The report also noted a 15% increase in international co-productions choosing Brussels for pre-production work, citing the city's diverse locations and skilled workforce as key factors.

By meticulously addressing each of these stages, production teams in Brussels set a solid foundation for successful video and film projects. The city's unique blend of historical charm and modern infrastructure, combined with its position at the heart of Europe, makes it an ideal location for a wide range of productions, from intimate indie films to large-scale international projects.
