Bryce McPartland Owner & Founder at McPartland Law Offices PLLC

Video Production Review from Bryce McPartland
We were referred to colormatics by our ad people at krem. We compared pricing and products of colormatics against a number of industry-specific marketing providers. Colormatics had the strongest portfolio and, surprisingly, offered exceptional pricing.Colormatics laid out a full shoot schedule which was pre-approved. They arrived on scene early one morning and traveled across central Washington to four separate locations to make an exceptionally tight yet comprehensive video about our firm. We began around 8 am and wrapped about 430 pm.Colormatics maintained excellent lines of communication including via email, text, cell and the video editing platform that they utilized. I always felt "in the loop" with them.

Video Production Review from Allison Grunthaner Gibicsar
Colormatics has been an outstanding partner in creating a huge amount of assets needed for our biggest product launch of 2023. This includes but is not limited to: social media videos, product videos, mattress cutaway visualizations, YouTube bumpers, edited b-roll, and more. The whole team is always willing to hop on the phone or quickly answer an email, with fast asset delivery and willingness to bring forth suggestions/solves outside of their scope.

Video Production Review from Ryan Throckmorton
Our team developed the idea of showcasing individuals who are making a positive impact online within their own communities. When we shared the concept with Colormatics, they immediately explored creative ways to bring it to life visually. They transformed our vision into a compelling visual narrative.The final piece blended live-action footage with motion graphics. We conducted interviews and also wanted to highlight the social media activity of these community members. Their profiles were used as a storytelling device, appearing almost like flashbacks, but animated in a way that made the content feel like it was unfolding in real time.We’re now experimenting with turning interview voiceovers into animated illustrations. We believe these could resonate even more on social platforms. The plan was to compare performance between the two video styles, and we’re looking forward to testing them soon.

I could not be anymore happier with the results given. The communication from the start sold me with making the process very easy and fast. From seeing the production on the website to getting our production back I am very pleased with the work.Jon, who filmed the event for us was top notch. I coordinated the event from California while the sales reps in the area hosted the event. Jon and I took calls so he could make sure het got everything we needed for this event to be filmed and ensure to ask questions so nothing was missed. The sales reps said Jon made the process very seamless and how he made everyone feel comfortable.From making the process easier being in another state, to making the event successful and capturing all moments, I definitely recommend.

The team at Fook helped me rebrand my business & created a website for me.The rebrand portion was fun & an educational experience for me because the team had me think at a different level than usual and they helped me connect my business with who I am. Safe to say there were a lot of "ah ha" moments in this. Also, their decks & presentations of the brand materials were amazing.And then came the website, the part I was most excited about. The team worked with my deadlines, offered support after hours to make sure everything was like how I imagined and was continuously there for support when I needed some help.From start to finish, they went the extra mile to make sure I understood the process and was always happy!

I typically don't write reviews, but in this case I felt compelled to do so, and here's why.I realize choosing a company that can help you with a video project can certainly be daunting. Fortunately, in my case I've had countless years of experience in finding people who can help with such services. Over those years I have learned when you find people who have the right customer-centric mindset, when they have the qualifications, and when they have the right principles, then you have found the right company, and everything else simply takes care of itself.I have a Foundation that brings Christmas to shelter dogs throughout the U.S., and we just completed our second project with New Evolution Video. I must say, am I beyond pleased with the outcome, and I found that Richard, Enrique, Kris to have great listening skills, and their creativity is beyond anything I've seen in the past. They are also incredibly professional in every way, they are all incredibly well-skilled, and they exceeded all our expectations with the final product.If you are looking for a videographer, you need to first find the right people. Once you have found the people who never put money ahead of people, and who have the talent and skills you are looking for, then you have my promise - you found the right company, and everything else will simply take care of itself.If you happen to be looking for such a company who can help you with video projects, then look no further - Richard, Enrique and Kris at New Evolution are the people you are looking for. Finding them has been a blessing for us, and I am sure it will be for you as well.

Camp LUCK's Review Sourced from Google
Thank you, Episode 11!It’s hard to capture in words what a summer camp experience means to kids. A very “regular" experience like summer camp is even more meaningful for kids with unique medical conditions. Since 2010 Camp LUCK has provided a positive experience that helps everyone reach their potential by building self-esteem, friendships and character in a safe environment. We want our “heart kids” to be “regular kids” for a week and participate in awesome activities that they might not normally be able to. Episode 11 volunteered to capture that experience — and did so — through the words and pictures of some of our campers. The campers’ candid interviews are a powerful reminder of what Camp LUCK means to these kids and their families. And without question, the video documents how much fun they have just being kids.

Studio Rental: We recently rented Impact Media’s studio space for some client interviews. It was a great space! They had it prepped for us on arrival. They have a great conference/green room right next door so the talent could be comfortable while we set up. Even though it was not the largest space it’s organized and efficient set up and we were able to fit a two camera interview against a solid backdrop.Overall the Impact team was hospitable and constantly checked in if we needed anything. We will be renting this space again in the future!

Giulietta Consentino (Juliet)'s Review Sourced from Google
Alchemist Production isn’t just a name, it’s exactly what they do. They take an idea, a half-formed vision, and turn it into something refined, something cinematic. They’re based in Bangkok but have experience everywhere, and what makes them stand out is how naturally they move between worlds. They understand the industry at every level, big and small, local and global. More importantly, they understand people.Their attention to detail is razor-sharp, but never in a way that slows things down. They don’t just follow a brief, they get it. They ask the right questions, make the right calls, and somehow make the impossible feel effortless. It’s rare to find that level of expertise without ego, that level of precision without losing the human touch.And then there’s K. Fon. She’s not just a producer, she’s the person who makes things happen. The one you want in the room when things get complicated. She sees angles no one else does, smooths out the chaos, and makes it all look easy. I have nothing but admiration for the way she works.You won’t regret choosing Alchemist Production. If anything, you’ll wish you had found them sooner.

5 Frequently Asked Questions About Documentary Production Companies
What does a documentary production company do?
Documentary video production companies provide filming and editing services for streaming platforms, NGOs, and broadcasters. They specialize in capturing authentic human and nature experiences that are thought-provoking and inspire action. The core idea behind this cinematic format is to understand the people behind the story, their philosophy and drive, and bring the topic closer to the audience.
The main services of documentary production companies can be segmented into three tiers:
Pre-production services: Conceptualization, research, scheduling, location scouting, and budgeting
Production services: Filming, directing, interviews with subjects, audio recording, and cinematography
Post-production services: Editing, archival footage insertion, adding subtitles, voiceover, sound design, and color grading
Some agencies also produce historical, social impact, educational, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) documentaries, and assist with festival submissions and distribution.
What kind of documentaries do these companies make?
Social impact and advocacy: Aimed at prompting public debate or activism for social justice and environmental issues
Investigative and crime: In-depth research into true stories, profiled crimes, historical events, or unsolved mysteries
Biographical and historical: Detailed explorations of influential individuals or historical events
Nature and science: Wildlife films and environmental documentaries
Branded documentaries: Create documentaries about a brand’s mission, impact, milestones, or corporate journey
Observational: Capturing real-life events as they unfold with minimal intervention from the filmmakers
Docuseries: Serialized stories that cover lifestyle, sports, food, or travel topics
How much do documentary video production companies charge for their services?
Documentary movies can cost between $10,000 and $1 million per production. The final price is determined based on the type of documentary, location, production quality, the size of the crew, the equipment needed, and the post-production process. In general, documentaries fall within the following brackets:
Low-budget documentaries: $10,000 to $50,000
Mid-range documentaries: $50,000 to $200,000
High-end documentaries: $200,000 to $1 million or more
On the lower end, many documentaries done by emerging filmmakers have budgets that are even lower than the industry threshold. These crews raise only enough to cover basic hard costs, relying on volunteer labor and in-kind contributions of goods and services.
On the higher end, documentary budgets can go far above $3 million and are usually allocated to high-profile projects supported by studios, broadcasting networks, and global streaming platforms.
In addition to production costs, what else needs to be accounted for in the final budget?
Besides filming costs, the final budget should also consider the following expenses:
Location permits and insurance
Crew salaries
Rental expenses for lighting, shooting, and sound equipment
Travel and accommodation for the crew
Do I own the final footage?
Typically, the contract determines ownership, but it is standard for the production company to own the raw files until final payment, after which the client receives the finished, edited content.
