Fundraising & campaign films

Fundraising & Campaign Films for Nonprofits, Schools and Businesses

A fundraising campaign asks people to give to something they can't see yet. A story-driven film lets them feel it. We find the heart of your organization's story, interview the people who live it, and shape it into an 8–10 minute film with a clear call to give.

One of our recent campaign films helped raise over $5 million. We film anywhere in the world.

Why a film

People give when they feel it

A short film built around real people telling their own story works far better than a slideshow or a speech at a fundraising banquet, a campaign launch or on your website homepage, because people feel it.

We film it with cinema-quality cameras and shape it into something your audience won't forget.

Two films, one shoot

A campaign film and an evergreen film

Once the campaign film is done, we create an evergreen version without the campaign ask. You keep a film that tells your story on your website and social channels for years after the campaign ends.

We also deliver a 30-second horizontal ad and a 30-second vertical teaser, so you can promote the campaign everywhere your audience is.

Kind words

What a campaign client says

They gave us much more than a video with facts about our building program and our monetary needs. Rather, they helped us tell the compelling story of our church, its history, our current challenges, and our excitement to accomplish something great. Everyone who has seen the video has been amazed at the excellent production quality and the thoughtfulness of editing.

You will not find a finer team to work on your project. We would use them again in a heartbeat.
