Water Safety Mini Documentary
Budget: $30 – $250 AUD
I’ve gathered the raw ingredients for a 5–10 minute film that inspires viewers to respect water, understand drowning risks, and take practical safety steps. All photos, b-roll, interviews, archive footage, brand logos, and a rough storyboard are ready; what I need now is a skilled editor to weave them into a polished, documentary-style narrative.
The finished piece should feel uplifting and motivational rather than heavy or alarming. A mixed narration approach suits the story best—think concise voice-over sections paired with impactful on-screen text for key statistics or quotes. Interviews and older footage will sit at the heart of the film, so pacing, sound balancing, and tasteful transitions are essential.
I’ll deliver:
• A folder structure with labelled video clips, stills, audio, and logos
• A beat-sheet indicating preferred order and emphasis
• Brand guidelines for colours, lower-thirds, and closing slate
You’ll return:
• One draft cut for feedback
• A final master (1080p H.264 + high-resolution ProRes)
• Separate clean version without burned-in captions for future language swaps
& up to 5 mini 'reel' type versions for promotion.
Experience in Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve is ideal, as long as the project file stays compatible for possible tweaks down the line. Smooth colour correction, clear dialogue mixing, royalty-free music placement, and tasteful motion graphics for stats round out the brief.
If you thrive on storytelling that saves lives, I’m ready to share the assets and dive straight into production.
