docu-shorts: stortelling that sticks
In a fast-scrolling world, attention is earned through authenticity. Docu-shorts are short-form documentaries that help brands, organizations, and individuals share real stories with real heart—distilled into 60 seconds to 5 minutes of powerful, intentional storytelling.
These aren’t ads. They’re moments.
They’re the why behind what you do—told through interviews, voiceover, and cinematic visuals that bring your values and mission to life.
Docu-shorts build trust. They humanize your brand, deepen connection, and often serve as the centerpiece of a broader video strategy—anchoring campaigns, fueling social media, and living on websites as the emotional touchpoint for your audience.
Whether you're trying to:
Launch a brand,
Highlight a community initiative,
Introduce your team or founder story,
Or shift perception -
A well-crafted docu-short delivers impact that lasts long after the scroll.
Why Docu-Shorts Work
Every docu-short starts with empathetic listening. I work closely with you to understand your goals, get to know the people behind the story, and ask the right questions to bring it all together. We film with a small footprint but a big vision—capturing intentional interviews and cinematic b-roll that reflect the soul of your story.
how we make them
the process
We begin by listening—really listening—to the heart of your story. Through guided conversations and thoughtful questions, we uncover the emotional core, clarify your goals, and align on the tone, structure, and impact you’re hoping to achieve. This step ensures we’re not just filming something beautiful—we’re telling the right story.

Editing & Delivery
Let’s Tell Your Story TOGETHER.
I believe every brand deserves more than just a film or photo—they deserve an experience that’s tailored, impactful, and deeply aligned with their mission. That’s why I take on a limited number of commercial projects each year, ensuring each one is crafted with care, creativity, and purpose.
I work with businesses and organizations that value more than just beautiful visuals—they understand the power of authentic storytelling and the connections it creates with their audience. If you're looking for a filmmaker who’s as invested in your brand as you are, let’s connect.
