Agentic AI for Cinematographers: Automate Shoots, Edits & Client Communication
Converiqo unifies enquiry management, crew coordination, post-production workflows, and client communication so cinematographers focus on storytelling while delivering flawless experiences.
Pressure points
Key Challenges for Cinematographers & Video Production Teams
Automation transforms enquiry management, shoot coordination, post-production, and client communication workflows.
Fragmented Client Enquiries
Couples, wedding planners, and event coordinators reach out via Instagram, WhatsApp, email, and booking portals. Without unified management, cinematographers miss opportunities or duplicate responses.
Complex Shoot Coordination
Managing venue timings, crew assignments, equipment logistics, and client expectations across multiple shoots creates chaos and reduces focus on creative work.
Post-Production Workflow Bottlenecks
Edit requests, color grading feedback, music approvals, and delivery deadlines accumulate in emails, making it difficult to maintain consistent quality and timelines.
Equipment & Crew Management
Tracking camera gear, lighting setups, drone permissions, and freelance crew availability across different locations and projects is time-consuming and error-prone.
Client Communication Overload
Continuous queries about edit progress, additional footage requests, pricing adjustments, and delivery updates distract from core creative work.
Payment & Contract Follow-Ups
Managing deposits, final payments, contract terms, and client follow-ups relies on manual reminders, affecting cash flow and professional relationships.
