What IS HIDDEN HAT
HiddenHat is a subscription-based creative research studio, offering research, writing, and design at a global standard working as an extension of your company.
What WE do
We help directors and production companies craft compelling treatments by simplifying the creative process. We take care of research, writing and design, allowing them to focus on their narrative vision.
OUR background
We are designers and creative researchers who have worked with some of the most relevant directors in the industry. Now, our team is available either by subscription or on a project basis.
OUR approach
We believe treatment costs are best controlled through a model designed around your needs. That’s why we offer a subscription that gives you access to design, writing, and research
FAQ
WHAT IS A TREATMENT
A director's treatment is a document developed to present ideas, campaigns, narratives, or audiovisual, advertising, or similar proposals. Each treatment includes three sequential tasks: creative research, text, and design.
HOW DOES IT WORK
Once you sign up, you can request as many treatments as your subscription allows, one task at a time. After completing each task, whether research, writing, or design, you can request the next. If you need to work on two treatments simultaneously, you can request a weekly boost to double your capacity.
Why hire Hidden Hat?
Great question! The cost of a full-time senior creative researcher can be high, and hiring freelancers often brings unpredictability during tight deadlines. Our subscription provides consistent access to expert support at a cost comparable to hiring a freelancer for a single treatment, without the stress.
Who will assist me?
Your journey starts with a project manager who schedules a briefing with the director. After that, you’ll communicate directly with the research or design team through your preferred platform, whether email or WhatsApp.
What is the limit?
With the Basic Subscription, you can complete up to 4 treatments per month, while the Pro Subscription allows up to 10. Note that tasks are handled one at a time. For simultaneous tasks, a boost can be purchased.
How long does it take?
The minimum is 1 day per task. And the minimum for a treatment is 3 days.
How do the reviews work?
You can review as many times as you want, any of the steps. But remember that this will impact the final delivery deadline.
What are the days and hours of operation?
Every day of the month from 9:30am to 7:00 pm (BRT), except on national holidays and during the collective year-end recess, which lasts approximately 15 consecutive days, with the exact dates to be determined annually.
How is the research delivered?
Organized in Dropbox folders (with films, cuts, and frames)
How is the text delivered?
Texts are shared via Google Docs, enabling collaboration between the director and ghostwriter.
How is the design delivered?
The design is delivered through a link for online viewing.
How do I cancel the plan?
You can cancel at any time. To do this, simply send an email or message making this request at least 10 days in advance of your subscription renewal date. Upon cancellation, you can use the service until the end of the current month, and your subscription will end in the following month.
