How it works
1. Deep Discovery
Every impactful documentary begins with connection. We invest time in understanding your organization's mission, values, and the passionate people behind it. Through thoughtful conversation, we identify your goals and determine how our storytelling approach can create lasting impact for your audience. This foundation of mutual understanding ensures your documentary authentically represents your vision.
2. Strategic Storyfinding
This crucial phase is where we identify the key moments and main characters that will engage your audience emotionally. Through in-depth research and meaningful conversations with stakeholders, we explore your ‘story-space’ to find the most compelling stories. Together, we distill your story's essence into five guiding keywords that will shape every aspect of your documentary, ensuring perfect alignment with your mission.
3. Storyboarding
Storyboarding is the final step of pre-production, where we use the keywords and main character to map out a clear vision for your film. We carefully plan each shot and scene, crafting an engaging plot from beginning to end. By identifying a central question or conflict, we ensure the story flows naturally and captures attention. This is a scientifically proven approach to keeping audiences engaged throughout. After this, it’s time for production!
4. Get it seen
Your powerful documentary deserves to be seen. After delivering your final assets, we provide strategic guidance on distribution to ensure your film reaches the right audience. Whether through social media campaigns, event screenings, or targeted outreach, we help you maximize your documentary's impact and inspire meaningful action from viewers.
Throughout this 8-week journey, we maintain open communication and collaborative refinement, including two comprehensive revision rounds to ensure your complete satisfaction with the final product.

The Signature Brand Documentary includes two comprehensive revision rounds, which are more extensive than those in our Rapid Impact Package. These revision phases are structured to address both big-picture narrative refinements and detailed finishing touches.

For documentary projects requiring additional revision rounds, these can be arranged at €350 per round. This reflects the more complex nature of documentary editing compared to shorter-form content.
