WHAT WE WILL DO:

Our overall aim is to put together a documentary video that tells the story of an individuals life or of an event

that is to be remembered for generations to come. This will be done using interviews, Photographs, live video

music, voiceovers and narration and professional editing techniques. These, tempered together in a tasteful and

skillful production ensure a documentary video that will preserve the legacy of loved ones or events for time to

come.

 

 

HOW WE AIM TO DO IT:

A no obligation consultation will take place over the phone, leading to a visit by one of our team.

We will then advise on the media to be collected eg photos, videos etc.

we will write letters to the participants that you would like to take part in the documentary and contact them by phone if necessary. A plan will be drawn up regarding the frame of the documentary after which we begin filming

of interviews and location shots etc. We will begin our editing using any footage provided by you, photographs,

interviews, location shots, etc. After a viewing by you we will begin to overlay the music, Audio tracks and narration.

 

 

HOW MUCH WILL WE CHARGE:

Our charges are as per work and therefore only a guide can be given. The price is affected by the following

factors

-- number of interviews to be filmed

- number of venues to be recorded

- distance to travel for interviews etc

- intended duration of documentary

 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE:

The process of creating the documentary from initial consultation to finished edit may take between 6 - 8 weeks

this includes planning, discussions, interviews, locaton shots, initial preview, second preview, and final edit and

in some cases the viewing event.

due to the varying nature of each documentary the time scale could be shorter or longer, however we will be in regular communication as to the progress of your documentary.
