How It Works: A Broadcast-Quality CTV Commercial in 3–4 Weeks

A Collage of on-set images, and a vibrant color wheel.

Most TV production takes months. We do it in weeks. From the first call to a finished, ready-to-run Connected TV commercial, Carpe Canum delivers in as little as 3–4 weeks — and you won’t have to tell us what to do. We lead you through a seamless, done-for-you process and handle the heavy lifting end to end.

The 3–4 week process

Built on Carpe Canum’s real identify → execute → impact process, shown as a week-by-week timeline.

1

Week 1 — Kickoff & Creative
Discovery call, creative brief, and project scope. Scriptwriting and storyboards drafted and approved.

2

Week 2 — Production
We shoot or assemble your assets, record voice over, and select music — daily updates throughout.

3

Week 3 — Edit & Review
First cut delivered. You review and comment directly in our digital review tools; we apply revisions fast.

4

Week 4 — Delivery
Final master approved, any variations built, and your spot is ready to run — we can place it for you.

Done-for-you, start to finish

We lead the brief, scripting, shoot, edit, and delivery.

Review and tag shots you love in our media asset management (MAM) system; comment on cuts in our digital review tools.

We can place your finished commercial through your existing CTV stack or our platform partners — you don’t need a media team.

(without cutting corners)

A systemized process refined since 2008, an experienced in-house team, AI used for speed where it helps and human production for quality where it matters.

Fast because we’re organized — not because we skip steps.
