• Audio Post-Production: Select appropriate background music, perform basic sound mixing, and ensure voiceovers are clear and synced.
• Color Grading: Apply color correction and grading to ensure a consistent look and feel across all shots.
• Storyboarding: Collaborate with the creative team to draft storyboards and scripts before production begins.
