4 Our Process... The Levitate project methodology has been defined by thousands of previous video productions and is the foundation of our successful engagements. Our process includes the following milestones and evaluations: Organization and Information Exchange Prior to a kick-off call, we provide access to our project management suite that will serve as the communication hub for all feedback and materials during the production and approval stages. Kick-Off Call A one-hour on-site meeting or call where members of the client team are encouraged to join and participate in a structured review of our process, examples of style, and a collaboration session that explores important aspects of your business that can be demonstrated through video. Script Development All materials are organized and sent to one scriptwriter, one VP Production and one Founder. A draft script is produced within a 48-hour window. Script Review and Revisions This will serve as the first evaluation from the client. Finalized scripts are provided with notes on the estimated length. Revisions or a full re-write is performed by the Levitate team in a 48-hour window and provided again for final approval. Voiceover We currently have a collection of over 100 voiceover artists under contract with Levitate and can provide a range of options. Once the script is finalized, the voiceover recording is usually completed within 24 hours using HD recording equipment in a professional studio. Storyboard, Style Frames, and Revisions Levitate uses storyboards and style frames to provide the client with a true visual representation of what the final video will look like. Using the approved script, our animation team will document each section of the video along with samples of the visual style. First Full Draft Once all of the elements are approved, Levitate will use the next five days or less to produce a full draft version of the video to follow the same approval process as before. Final Video Delivery of the final draft follows the same process as before. Minor adjustments are made and all work is confirmed. Multiple renderings are delivered along with production assets.

5 Q Updates After a great end to 2017, the Levitate team hit the ground running to start off the new year. We welcomed over fifty new clients in the first quarter along with several new members of the full-time and contract teams. Live video continues to be in big demand with many shoots now incorporating drone footage (levitatemedia.com/drone). As with the beginning of any new year, our clients have started off with many new video series to introduce solutions and services in shorter segments that are easy for viewers to follow. We re on pace to keep growing with a record year of new clients and team members. Thanks to everyone for your continued support! Apttus Live Video The recently completed Apttus Roots video was a challenging production: it consisted of five separate shoots on two continents in air, land, and sea, plus custom animations and a unique approach to dialogue. With great client collaboration and project management, Levitate was able to do the seemingly impossible and complete production in just ten days. The video was an overwhelming success and we re thrilled with the final result, as is our client, Apttus.
