We are the storytellers producing documentaries on request for institutions and individuals in a variety of styles and lengths. Far from being a cookie-cutting production where you are limited to answering key questions and are limited to a limited number of revised versions, we work in a manner in which no two films are ever alike. Every film we produced is tailored to the story you want to tell, and all projects are always directed and edited by award-winning filmmaker Eduardo Montes-Bradley.
Budget and Style
We offer museum-quality, PBS-style documentaries which might take between six to eighteen months -from the initial concept to delivery- and cost anywhere from eighty to four hundred thousand dollars depending on the complexity of the story. However, we also offer more affordable options which only defer from the more costly alternatives in the time devoted to producing it. These less costly alternatives are targeted to assist institutions with limited resources, foundations, and families hopping to honor and pay tribute to their legacy, coming in three different variants based on basic production models. Find the model that’s right for you, your family, or your organization, and we will help you to shape your concept into a documentary film for generations to come. For a more personalized plan, please write to us with details. contact Eduardo Montes-Bradley at montesbradley@gmail.com
