Documentary

The message that you wish to convey, in a documentary, can be realized with our help.

Interfilm has extensive experience in producing all genres of documentaries.

What is a professional documentary film?
As the name suggests, a documentary film aims to document a certain reality from a broad range of perspectives to make the presented narrative as authentic and objective as possible. Documentary films are categorically non-fictional with the involved characters being actual individuals.

How to create a perfect documentary film?
A timeless documentary requires the perfect story that captures the underlying theme and reality presented by the film. It is only possible to create such a reality by combining world-class cinematography with extensive production experience. For instance, if the story is about street crime, it is paramount to shoot in dark and despondent alleys to accurately present the violent and cruel nature of such existence.

Accordingly, the production team must meticulously choose the suitable environment, video and audio composition, lighting, and actors. On the other hand, if a documentary aims to shine a light on urban architecture, the focus must be on using ambient light, lines, composition, and slow camera movement. This paints a calm, relaxing, and secure environment, that any individual dreams of living in.

What kind of documentaries have we produced?

The classic documentary:

The goal is to explain a narrative objectively to the audience. The story can evolve around nature, a historical event, society, and more. Voice-overs, interviews, and reconstructions are usually incorporated in most classic documentaries.

Interfilm has produced among others the documentary “Europe from Above” for National Geographic Channel, which showcases national European landmarks and construction ingenuity from an unparalleled perspective.

The observing documentary:
The observing documentary aims to showcase reality objectively by abstaining from any kind of interference that could shift the actual narrative. This type of documentary rarely utilizes voice-over or structured interviews. The camera is simply fly on the wall.

Interfilm was tasked to create an observing documentary by Sony Music Entertainment, about the lifestyle of the famous artist, Gilli in Spain. This documentary aired on the tv program “Uden Filter” with the famous tv presenters Hav and Kamal as hosts. Our team was responsible for the entire process from pre- to post-production.

The poetic documentary:
This type of documentary concentrates on creating an atmosphere that primarily appeals to pathos, illustration takes precedence over narration. The aim is to express a certain reality aesthetically, strongly emphasizing eliciting emotions in the audience.

Interfilm produced a documentary in Dubai, that captures the fruits of hard work for the influential international music producer Node. As a musician with Kurdish roots, Node has brought young people from the west and the east together with his music. He needed our production team to convey his message of unity to the world.

The dramatic documentary:
The dramatic documentary resembles and incorporates some elements from traditional movies, Interfilm applies cinematic effects in creating an attractive and exciting narrative that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats by using among others our soundtracks from a library with access to worldwide music. By utilizing the correct lighting, environment, and background music, we make sure that the documented events are staged and reality is reinterpreted and reconstructed.

The engaging documentary:
