What is a documentary video?

Documentaries explore the facts of a real-life event or situation, capturing the essence of involved or complex subjects and making them easy to digest.

Interviews with storytellers and experts can be supported by live-action footage, historical archives or dramatic reconstructions, all designed to immerse viewers in the subject.

The best documentary videos inform and educate, while making a lasting emotional impact.

Take a look at a selection of our documentary videos below to help give you some inspiration!

How you'd use one:

  • Websites
  • Events & exhibitions
  • Fundraising
  • Social media
  • Staff training

Have you considered…?

We understand that no two documentary videos will ever be the same but there are common services we get asked to include each time. Based on our experience, you might want to think about:

Interviews

Interviews

Naturally scripted or completely unrehearsed, we can interview key individuals that are critical to recounting your story.

Dramatisation

We can fill gaps in any existing footage you hold by reconstructing key moments to play as a backdrop to interviews.

Colour grade

Colour grade

Set the mood of your documentary with colour; for example we can edit raw footage to make it more vibrant or subdued.
