Making mini documentaries


Make a documentary like a reporter.


A documentary is generally made up of interviews alternating with pictures. Documentary videos are far more realistic than marketing videos. A template to stand out from rivals and build trust in a brand while also sparking people’s interest and winning over customers.

Making a mini documentary: advantages


Reporter-style video documentaries to create an immersive style that you see in TV news. Video documentaries such as exploring something behind the scenes, being out in the field or close-ups of an ongoing event are far more realistic ways to communicate than standard marketing videos.
