Standard turnaround for a Boutique Reel or Co-Star Split is 7–10 business days. This allows us time for a precision edit, professional sound mix, and a full DaVinci Resolve color grade. If you're in a rush, ask about our Priority Post add-on.

Absolutely. We love working with your original material. However, to maintain our Production Grade standards, we highly recommend scripts be 1.5 pages or less.

If you bring a 3+ page script:

• We will film the session as scheduled.

• Your final deliverable will be a 60-second 'Master Take.' > * If you need the 3 pages condensed into a high-impact 60-second industry asset, we recommend adding our Script Trim ($100) service to your booking.

Don't have a reader? No problem. We have a roster of Professional House Partners—vetted LA actors who are available to read and play opposite you for a small coordination fee.

For the Co-Star Split, we recommend bringing a partner you already have chemistry with.

Working with Gruff Studios is like being in a highly organized riot. We take the frame, the lighting, and the technical blueprint incredibly seriously—but we refuse to take ourselves that way. We believe that fun isn't just a byproduct of a good shoot; it’s the engine that powers the grit. Expect early call times, precision-engineered shot lists, and a production crew that will work until the sun goes down. We’re here to build something unique, and we’re going to have a ridiculous time doing it.
