How does a project actually run?

A first conversation settles the goal, the audience and the date. Within 48 hours: a written treatment, a quote itemised line by line, a schedule with your approval dates. Then preparation, the shoot, a first edit within 2 weeks to a month. 2 rounds of changes included, rushes available for 6 months.

Do we need to choose the format before asking for a quote?

No. The format follows from the goal, the audience and the place the film will be watched: that is what the scoping conversation is for. If the format you asked for does not serve the goal, I say so before the quote. 4 questions to find yours.
