PLOTTWIST — Creative production and post production in Istanbul. OFF SCRIPTBY NATURE.

SO, WHAT DO WE DO?

Commercials, digital content and live broadcasts. Production, editing, motion and color, built around your project.

Cornetto / behind the scenes01 / ON SET
01PRODUCTION

Commercials, branded content, programmes and concert shoots. We plan the crew, equipment and set around the job. For live broadcasts, we coordinate camera systems, control room and sound, with more than 10 cameras when the project calls for it.

  • Commercials & branded content
  • Concerts, programmes & multi-camera shoots
  • Live broadcast production / 10+ cameras
02POST

Editing, color grading, sound design and mix. From commercials and music videos to digital formats and concert films, we shape the rhythm and prepare the versions your release needs.

03MOTION

We create typography, graphics and animation to suit the project, knowing when to make them stand out and when to let the story lead.

04AI PRODUCTION

We build the idea, camera path and composition first. AI helps develop the visual world; clouds, seagulls and transitions are then layered and shaped by hand. Editing, sound and colour bring everything together.

OUT OF FRAME.

Brands, people, ideas.
Every project has a world of its own.

PLOTTWIST / THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE WORK

THE EYE.
THE INSTINCT.

Founded by director of photography and creative producer Aslancan Kolcu. Production and post for brands and agencies, with a team built around each project.

MEET PLOTTWIST

LET’S GET
INTO IT.

Can we start before the idea is fully formed?

Yes. A short outline is enough. We work through your campaign goal, audience, platforms, timing and available budget to define the scope. We respond to project enquiries within 24 hours.

What can you take on?

Commercials, branded content, digital formats, music videos, concerts and live broadcasts. We handle crew, cameras, control room and sound, including productions with more than 10 cameras when needed. You can also work with us for editing, motion, color grading and sound post.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. We can join an agency team as its production partner or deliver production and post as an external team. We agree on responsibilities at the start.

Can we book post production only?

Yes. We also work with existing footage, defining the editing, motion, color, music, sound design and mixing the project needs.

Do you shoot outside Istanbul?

We shoot across Türkiye. Istanbul is our preferred base when a project uses a studio and our own equipment; we plan crew and logistics separately for other locations.

Can we work together long term?

We can build annual partnerships around an agreed production scope and schedule. We define the deliverables upfront rather than offer open-ended, unlimited content.

Do you offer photography?

We do not offer standalone photography. Thumbnail, poster and album-cover design can be considered within the project scope.

How do you prepare the budget and quote?

We define crew, equipment, production and post around the project and set out the costs in the quote. Any additional scope, cost or schedule change is discussed before you approve it.

How do you plan delivery?

We agree the delivery date around the scope, shoot plan and post requirements. Feedback and approval dates are set in advance; if the scope changes, we review its effect on the schedule together.

What do revisions include?

Our standard post scope includes three revision rounds. Rounds apply to the quoted project, not separately to each deliverable. A round is one consolidated feedback list from one project contact. The three rounds cover editing, pacing, graphics, text, captions, sound and color within the approved concept and deliverables.

New concepts or scripts, restarting an approved direction, reshoots, extra films, lengths, languages or ratios, and out-of-scope 3D/VFX are quoted separately. Feedback dates are agreed in the quote. Technical errors or deviations from our agreed scope do not use up a round. Additional cost and timing require approval before work proceeds.

How do music, sound and usage rights work?

We agree channels, territory, duration and purpose, including monetized content and paid media. Music and sound effects are licensed for that use, with scope, additional cost and required publication clearance specified in the quote. No single license automatically covers every channel.

Ownership of licensed music is not transferred. New edits, reuploads, channels or campaign extensions require a coverage check. Cast, participant and location clearance responsibilities are agreed at the outset. Raw footage and editable project delivery are specified separately.

Where do shoots and meetings take place?

Our shooting space is at Pan Stüdyo in Kağıthane. We plan the setup around the project, with meetings and shoots by appointment. Studio scope and costs are specified in the quote.
