From “what if” to “that’s our commercial”

Here’s how we make it.

01 / THE BRIEF

Tell us what you sell.

Share your offer, audience, budget, filming location, and ideal launch date. We confirm what fits the package.

02 / THE CONCEPT

Approve the weird.

We develop an original concept and script. One script revision is included before the shoot.

03 / THE COMMERCIAL

Shoot. Edit. Launch.

We film, edit, and deliver your commercial and cutdown, with one editing revision included.

Clear scope. No scary surprises.

What to know before booking.

What costs extra?

Additional actors, paid locations, specialty props, travel, advanced visual effects, extra shoot time, and extra revisions require a separate approved quote. A larger concept, such as an exorcism with multiple actors and effects, may exceed the starter scope.

Will my ad appear on The Mario Castillo Show?

Show placement and posting to Mario’s audience are separate sponsorship options. Buying video production does not include distribution to that audience.

Does this include running ads or guaranteed sales?

No. Ad management, media spend, and ongoing posting are separate. We create the commercial; views, leads, and sales are not guaranteed.

Where can I use the commercial?

Tell us which channels you plan to use, including any paid campaigns. Usage, talent permissions, music licensing, and delivery formats are confirmed in your project agreement before production.

How long does it take?

We agree on a production and delivery schedule after reviewing your concept, location, and availability. Send your target launch date with your inquiry.
