The BBS TV Process - Quality AND Value
Our goal is to maximize your budget, with no compromise of quality, execution or schedule. Our television commercial (TVC) process has been perfected over 35 years, constantly adapting to developing technologies, emerging media opportunities and the corporate requirements of our clients. BBS TVC consultants become your trusted advocates throughout the entire production process with your agency, production and post-production stakeholders. Every BBS consultant has a minimum of 20 years production experience as former executive producers, line producers or agency producers. We know the detailed ins and outs of production first hand.
