Vivian's stage in Austin: the same photograph flat and ungraded on the left, finished on the right
Graded →
Stage · Austin, TX 8711 Burnet Rd, F64 Commercial · Product · Music Video

Shot here. Cut here. Graded here. Out the door.

One north Austin address with the stage, the production office and the support kit on it. The picture starts flat and leaves finished — and you never hand it to a stranger in the middle.

0 ways inLinks pointing at those pages from anywhere else on the site

They sit on 7 director pages that link only to each other. Nothing outside that loop points in. Counting them, 10 of the 18 pages on your site cannot be reached by clicking — you have to already know the URL.

3 asks, 0 formsBook CTAs on the homepage vs. booking widgets that render

The page asks a visitor to book three times. The widget under the third ask is an unconfigured Squarespace block — “Connect to Acuity Scheduling” — and it is set to display:none. A visitor sees an empty space where the form should be.

Every number above was counted, not estimated. The full audit is at the bottom of this page.

01The Suite

Drag the seam.
Watch the picture get made.

One of your frames, twice, locked together. Left of the seam it is flat — the way a picture looks before anybody touches it. Right of the seam it is the frame as it went out the door. The waveform sits directly on top of the picture and shares its x-axis: column for column, it is reading whichever side of the seam it is standing on.

Flat / logbefore the grade Gradedas delivered ◀ Drag the seam ▶
Seam 50% · on the monitor:
Vectorscope×1.7 gain
Flat pass mean chroma
Graded master mean chroma

Both rows are measured off the pixels on the monitor. The grade is what takes the trace from a crushed band to a full 0–100 and swings the vectorscope out along the skin line.

Two things we will not pretend about. The flat pass is computed live in your browser from your own delivered frame — it is a demonstration of what a grade does, not your camera original, which we do not have. And on a live site this module runs the clip, not a still; the films are already embedded on your pages, and a still is what a concept page can carry with zero outside loads. The one question we need answered before this ships: does the finishing happen in this building today? If it does, this is your suite. If you send it out, this is the argument for bringing it home — and either way it shows a producer what their footage becomes, which is the thing your homepage has never once done.

02End to end

The whole thing, at one address.

Vivian’s service list runs together in a single slash-separated line on the current site. Here it is, unchanged — just laid out the way a producer actually reads it: what happens on the floor, what happens after, and everything you would otherwise be renting from four other phone numbers.

Stage → 01

On the floor

  • Video production
  • Commercial production
  • Product photography
  • Product videos
  • Music videos
Post → 02

After the shoot

  • Motion graphics
  • Finishing — the frame leaves looking like the frame above
  • Delivery to the client, out of one building
Around it → 03

Everything else

  • Event coordination
  • Event production
  • Production office & craft service
  • Vehicles, radios, cones, tents, tables

Columns 01 and 03 are Vivian’s own words, verbatim from vivianatx.com. Column 02 is the positioning this concept argues for, not a claim we found on your site — the site publishes “motion graphics” and “video production” and says nothing about a post room. Whether the edit and the grade already happen at F64 is question one for Tim. If they do not, this column becomes the page that names who does them and how the handoff is run — which is still more than the site says today.

03The Stage

A cyc wall, pre-lit,
with a door big enough.

04The Work

Put the film first.

Nobody hires a studio from a description. They watch something and think I want that. Sixteen frames from work already published on vivianatx.com — and already unreachable. Click any one of them to put it on the monitor in section 01 and grade it yourself.

Every tile above is a live source for the bay — that is the whole interaction, and it works. What it is not is a video player: we will not guess which of the 37 films belongs to which frame. On the finished site each tile plays its own film in place, because the films are already embedded on your pages — they just sit behind a URL nobody can click to.

05Production Support

The unglamorous half
that saves the day.

Office & the building

  • Production office
  • Conference table
  • Kitchen / craft service
  • Props & wardrobe

Rentals

  • A motorhome
  • A Mercedes Sprinter van
  • A Ford 15-passenger van
  • Cones, tents, chairs, tables, production radios
Production office with conference table and monitor Kitchen and craft service area inside the studio Lounge and break area inside the studio

Every item above appears on vivianatx.com today. Rates are not published anywhere on the current site, so none are shown here — they go on the page the day Tim gives us the numbers.

06Who you get

Two owners. Both on set.

Tim Hoppock

Co-Owner & Executive Producer

In the film industry since 2003. Also an Executive Producer at ELEMENT Productions in Boston, a SAG-AFTRA actor and stunt player, and a co-founder of the Texas Film Foundation.

Both bios are drawn from vivianatx.com/about-1, in the studio’s own words.

Austin, TX 78757 — north Austin, on Burnet Rd. Load-in is through the bay door.

Both channels here are ones Vivian already publishes: the phone number and info@vivianatx.com are in the footer of every page on vivianatx.com, and in the site’s own structured data. Nothing was guessed. We deliberately did not put the Facebook page in this section — it is the only social link your site carries, and right now it does not open for a logged-out visitor (see the note below). What also does not exist yet is a booking form anyone can actually use.

08Note from DGENIUS CO

Why this concept leads with a picture instead of a lightbulb

This page is a concept, built cold from what is publicly on vivianatx.com. Here is the whole audit:

  • 37 films — 27 minutes and 11 seconds of finished work — are live on the site right now, on 7 director pages. Each of those 7 pages has exactly 6 inbound links, and all 6 come from the other 6 director pages. Nothing outside that loop points in. You cannot click your way to them.
  • The homepage navigation offers exactly two destinations: About, and a Blog whose last post is 11 March 2020. The homepage plays zero video. It opens on a stock lightbulb, a stock lens and a cup of pencils.
  • Three more pages — /office-space-1 (the office gallery), /intro and /new-page-2 (more of the cyc wall) — have no inbound links at all: nothing on the site links to them. Add the 7 director pages and 10 of the 18 pages in your own sitemap cannot be reached by clicking. From the homepage a visitor can only ever get to two places: About and Blog.
  • The page asks a visitor to book three times, and the widget under the third ask is an unconfigured Squarespace block: “Connect to Acuity Scheduling. To use this block, start an Acuity Scheduling trial or connect an existing account.” It is the last thing above the footer, the template behind it is throwing a RuntimeError in the page source, and the block computes to display:none — so a visitor is asked to book and then shown nothing at all. There is no working booking form on the site.
  • The only social link anywhere on vivianatx.com is the Facebook page in your footer — no Instagram, no YouTube, no Vimeo of your own, for a business whose product is pictures. And we could not get that Facebook page to open: logged out, Facebook answers “This content isn’t available right now” (checked in a normal browser and as a crawler). It may just need republishing — but today your one social link is a dead end, which is why it is not used as a contact route on this page. To confirm with Tim.
  • Not one price, follower count, award, date or client relationship on this page was invented. Every contact detail here — the phone number, info@vivianatx.com, the address — is one Vivian already publishes on its own site, and we checked each one still works; we do not guess how to reach a real business. Where a fact does not exist publicly we left the space empty and marked it to confirm. The two places where we are arguing a position rather than reporting a fact — the post room in section 02, and the words “graded here” in the headline — are both flagged in plain sight, above.
