Our studio maturity framework breaks your studio down into seven foundational components

1. Studio Management
How effective is your studio management in guiding and overseeing your studio's operations?

2. Team Leader Collaboration
How well do your team leaders (photography, post-production, etc.) work together? Are they siloed and unaware of the work happening upstream and downstream, or do they collaborate effectively as a cohesive team?

3. Technology
How optimized is your studio’s tech stack? Do your studio operations rely solely on generic tools like spreadsheets and PDFs cobbled together, or do they leverage a well-integrated tech stack comprised of purpose-built hardware and software?

4. Ways of Working
How well-defined are your studio’s processes? To what extent has a culture of continuous improvement been instilled?

5. Production Quality
How consistently does your studio produce content to the expected level of quality?

6. Operational Insights
What production data is collected and tracked to ensure optimal performance and continuous improvement?

7. Integration with the Business
To what extent is the studio viewed as a strategic partner capable of influencing the overall commercial performance of your business?

Based on your responses to our Studio Maturity Self-Assessment, we calculate a score for each aspect of your studio, categorizing them into one of three maturity levels: Reactive, Managed & Sustainable, or Optimized.

Did one or several components of your studio land in our Reactive or Managed & Sustainable maturity levels? Don’t sweat. We’d never leave you hanging. 

Upon completing the self-assessment, we will send you a customized report detailing the maturity level of your studio. In that report, we provide best practices from our internal studio operations experts, who collectively have +80 years of experience in the creative operations industry. These insights will guide you on how to mature each aspect of your studio to the next level in our model.
