For: our videographer · From: Khai, MixWork

This is the production brief for the MixWork Academy Remote Professional Certification shoot. It covers what we are making, the schedule, the set, the technical spec we are proposing, and what we need delivered. Nothing here is fixed against your judgement — if you would shoot it differently, say so before the shoot day.

1 · The project at a glance

MixWork is producing the MixWork Academy Remote Professional Certification — a mandatory internal course that every new MixWork Indonesia joiner completes in their first two weeks. Eight modules, one video each, with a quiz after every module.

This is not a campaign film. It is a credential that stays in service for 24 months and is watched by every person we hire. It needs to look consistent, clean and calm, and every module has to match every other module.

Field	Detail
Deliverable	8 videos, approx. 7 minutes each · approx. 56 minutes total
Format	Live-action, single presenter to camera. Semi-podcast — clean, simple, no theatrics
Presenter	Chesa — a working reporter. Experienced on camera, delivering from teleprompter
Language	English
Tone	Warm, direct, professional. Explaining, not lecturing
Audience	New MixWork Indonesia employees, day 1–14. Watching on a laptop, often with headphones
Shoot	Sat 19 Sep 2026 · Sun 20 Sep 2026 held in reserve
Final delivery	by Fri 10 Oct 2026 (Already edited by MixWork)
Usage	Internal employee training only. Not a public or commercial campaign

<aside> ⚠️

The single biggest risk on this job is inconsistency between modules. A learner watches all eight in sequence. If module 4 is a stop warmer or a hair tighter than module 3, they will feel it. Lock the lighting, framing, white balance and audio chain before the first take and do not adjust them between modules — only between setups we have agreed.

2 · What we are shooting

Eight modules, all the same shape: Chesa to camera, straight through, teleprompter. No presenter movement, no location changes, no interviews.

#	Module	Approx. runtime	Notes for camera
1	The MixWork Standard	7 min	Opening module — the one learners judge the whole course by. Shoot it after the warm-up, not first
2	High Professionalism	7 min	Standard coverage
3	No One Wins Alone	7 min	Standard coverage
4	Personal Discipline	7 min	Standard coverage
5	Always Learning	7 min	Standard coverage
6	Presence and Presentation	7 min	This module teaches camera, light, audio and dress. It has to be the best-looking module in the set — the frame is part of the argument
7	Your Home Is Your Office	7 min	Likely to need supporting shots of a workspace. See §9
8	Conduct and Review	7 min	Serious subject matter. Slightly less warmth in the grade is acceptable, but do not change the lighting

3 · Schedule

Date	What happens	You
Mon 15 – Wed 17 Sep	Scripts being finalised with Chesa	Confirm kit, crew and rate. Recce the location if you want one
Fri 18 Sep	🔒 Scripts locked · teleprompter files ready · read-through and rehearsal with Chesa	Ideally present for a short technical rehearsal — prompter speed, framing, audio check
Sat 19 Sep	🎬 Shoot day — modules 1–8	Full day
Sun 20 Sep	Reserve day — only if we do not finish or something fails	Please hold the date
late Sep	Pickup session, if needed	Half day, same setup — we must be able to rebuild the lighting exactly
by Fri 10 Oct	Final videos delivered	See §11

4 · The set

Simple and neutral. A clean professional workspace look, shot against greenscreen so backgrounds can be set per module and refreshed across the 24-month life of the course without a reshoot.

<aside> 🟩

Greenscreen — what matters

Matte chroma green, tensioned or steamed. No wrinkles, no seams in frame, no hotspots
Lit separately from the subject, even to within about a third of a stop corner to corner
Chesa at least 2 metres off the screen — this is the single most effective spill control there is
A backlight to break green spill off her hair and shoulders
Screen fills the frame with margin on all four sides. We will want the option to reframe in post </aside>

<aside> 👔

Wardrobe and makeup constraints

Smart casual with a blazer, cream and beige tones.
No green, no teal, nothing translucent — it will key out
No pure white next to the face, it clips before the skin is exposed correctly
No fine stripes, checks or herringbone — moiré at 4K
Matte makeup, powder down any shine. Touch-ups every two modules, not only at breaks
If a blazer change is planned mid-day, it has to fall on a module boundary and be logged </aside>

Location requirements

Ceiling height for a top backlight and a tensioned screen
Windows blacked out. Daylight moving across an eight-hour day is the fastest way to break continuity between module 1 and module 8
