Documentary Brand Films · Quad Cities
A documentary brand film shows the people, purpose, and work behind your business in a story customers can see and trust. You work directly with me from the first idea to the final cut.
Brand film projects start at $1,500.
This 9-minute documentary goes beyond a quick commercial to show the people, purpose, and craft behind Slow Corner BBQ.
Why a brand film
A strong brand film gives customers more than a list of services. It helps them understand who you are, why your work matters, and what it feels like to work with you.

Tell me your story →From idea to final cut
No production maze. You work directly with me, and I guide every step.
We talk through your business, audience, goals, and the people or moments that matter most.
I create the interview questions, story outline, shot list, and schedule. There is no script to memorize.
I guide the conversations and capture your people, work, location, and details — plus drone footage when it adds something useful.
I shape the story, color the footage, mix the sound, add licensed music, and deliver everything ready to publish.
One shoot. A full content library.
Every project is scoped to your goals. A typical brand film package can include:
Your main story for your website, YouTube, presentations, and sales conversations.
Focused 9:16 edits for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
Short moments, quotes, and teasers edited and ready to post.
Edited images for your website, thumbnails, social channels, and marketing.
Files formatted for every place you plan to share the story.
Investment
That starting point works for a focused story with a simple shoot. Longer documentary films, multiple interviews or locations, drone coverage, photography, and larger content packages are quoted by scope.
Tell me what story you want to share, and I’ll recommend the simplest package that fits — no pressure, no jargon.

Your website, YouTube, sales emails, presentations, events, and social channels. Short and vertical edits give you more content for LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Shorts.
