Documentary Video
Production

Some stories can't be told in thirty seconds. Documentary work is where a brand's real story gets room to breathe and it's some of the most-watched content a company can make.

The Kissimmee Experience

A tourism documentary produced for the region's official destination authority.

🟡 Fill — the story (2–3 sentences) What the film was about, its runtime, and where it ran (broadcast, campaign site, in-market screens, festival). Write it the way you'd tell a prospective client, in plain terms.
🟡 Optional — personal doc work Your Iceland puffin documentary could live here too if you want personal filmmaking represented alongside client work. It shows genuine range — your call.

Who it's for

Documentary suits organizations with something real to say.

01

Tourism boards & destinations

Place-driven films that make people want to come — and stay longer when they do.

02

Brands with an origin story

The founder, the first idea, the reason the company exists — told properly, not in a slogan.

03

Nonprofits showing impact

Proof of the work, in the words of the people it actually reached.

04

Companies marking a milestone

Anniversaries, expansions, and legacies worth recording while the people who lived them are here to tell it.

A single festival-ready piece, a short-doc series, or a long-form feature — we scope the format to the story, not the other way around.

The Approach

Less scripting.
More listening.

Documentary is built from what's true, not what was storyboarded. We plan for real moments — then stay ready when they actually happen.

  1. 01

    Interviews that go somewhere

    Questions designed to open people up, not tick a box — the difference between a talking head and a moment.

  2. 02

    B-roll gathered patiently

    The texture and detail that make a place, a process, or a person feel real on screen.

  3. 03

    Edits built from the footage

    The story is found in the room and shaped in the cut — assembled from what's true rather than forced to fit a script.

FAQ

Documentary, answered

How long does a documentary take, start to finish?+
Every documentary is different depending on the story, scope, access, and production needs. We’ve completed corporate documentaries in as little as two weeks from start to finish, while other documentary projects have developed over multiple years through ongoing filming and storytelling. A typical project timeline includes discovery and story development, planning and production, filming, editing, review rounds, and final delivery. We work with each client to build a timeline that fits the scale of the story; whether it’s a focused short documentary or a long-term documentary series.
Do you handle interviews, releases, and permissions?+
Yes. We help manage the logistics needed to capture authentic interviews and documentary footage. Our team conducts interviews, coordinates production details, and can handle talent releases and permissions depending on the scope of the project. In many cases, clients already have relationships with the people being featured, so their involvement in connecting with participants can make the process smoother. We can also take the lead on securing releases, including experience with public interviews, man-on-the-street style filming, and documentary environments where participant permissions need to be managed carefully.
Can the documentary be cut into shorter pieces too?+
🟡 Fill Yes. We create full content packages designed to maximize the value of your documentary footage. Beyond the main documentary, we can deliver additional edits such as short-form videos, social clips, trailers, and other supporting content tailored for your website, social channels, marketing campaigns, and internal communications. The goal is to create a complete library of content from the story we capture and not just a single finished film."
