Thanks to the Pixelz team we carried out the impossible. A small, sharp but impactful project. Made all the better by Pat's ability to understand the essence of the project quickly and add his storytelling, logistics and technical talent and experience.
Whether it was filming our ad, producing live multi-camera events or live-casting online, Pat's network could do it, do it well, do it fast, and do it calmly with smiles on their faces.

We had an amazing experience working with Jerry especially on such short notice. We didn’t know if we wanted to have videography until about 1-2 weeks before the wedding. Jerry swooped in and did an amazing job. Instant film was completed and sent over the night of the wedding. Ceremony film was done within the week. Amazing turnaround speed and fantastic quality. I don’t know how he does it!

Will and Sam created a video that conveyed the most intriguing parts of my craft in a way that was truly inspiring. They captured the small moments and details of what I do and flawlessly edited the footage into an intimate peek inside my studio and working life in a creative way. The video has been invaluable in showing my customers what happens behind the scenes, lifting the veil and letting my clients see how I work and what goes into creating my jewelry pieces. I can't recommend them highly enough!

They took the time to really understand our vision then used their rare combination of artistry, creativity, and sensitivity to produce a video that blew away all of my expectations.

We had an outstanding experience working with Hunter Gregory and H & K Cinema. From the beginning, Hunter brought a level of professionalism, creativity, and care that gave our team complete confidence in the process.
What stood out most was not only the quality of his work, but the way he made our homeowner feel comfortable sharing their home, their story, and their building experience on camera. That takes trust, and Hunter earned it quickly with his calm presence, thoughtful direction, and genuine respect.
The finished video was beautifully captured, well-produced, and truly reflected the heart of the story. Hunter delivered exactly what he promised and exceeded our expectations in both professionalism and final product.
Cross Custom Homes highly recommends Hunter Gregory and H & K Cinema to anyone looking for a filmmaker who is talented, trustworthy, and excellent to work with.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with HK Cinema as our wedding videographer in Dallas. We looked through probably 50 different videographers before making a decision, and Hunter’s work stood out immediately—nothing else even came close. The quality, storytelling, and overall feel of his videos are on another level.
From the moment we saw his portfolio, we knew he was our guy. Throughout the entire process, Hunter was a true professional—easy to communicate with, organized, and clearly passionate about what he does. On our wedding day, he captured everything so naturally without ever making things feel staged or forced.
If you’re looking for a wedding videographer in Dallas area and beyond, we highly recommend HK Cinema. His work speaks for itself, and we’re so glad we trusted him to capture such an important day for us!

I had such a great experience working with H&K Cinema on my recent project. From start to finish, the level of care, communication, and professionalism really stood out. Hunter was incredibly attentive to my vision and even helped select a location that aligned perfectly with the aesthetic I was going for; it honestly exceeded my expectations.
What meant the most to me was how he went above and beyond. In addition to delivering a beautiful final video, he also provided a full folder of high-quality screengrabs, which was such a thoughtful and valuable touch for my content.
Throughout the entire process, communication was clear, timely, and supportive. I felt heard, understood, and taken care of every step of the way.
I’m truly grateful for the experience and will absolutely be working with H&K Cinema again for future projects. Highly recommend!

As someone who is getnerally a little shy and doesn't like a camera I would highly recommend the team at PITS.

Wow, how impressed am I with these guys. Amazing team. I used them for a combined wedding package - videos as well as photos.
Couldn't be happier with the footage. Pie in the Sky really captured our favorite fairy tale moments in a classic yet fun way.
The photobooth at our wedding was the cherry on top. Our guest couldn't stop talking about the fun photo shoot and special photostrip memoir.
I can honestly recommend them. High quality footage, drone footage included at a good price. BEAUTIFUL photos.
Thank you Rudi and team. Your the best.

They captured every special moment of our wedding with such artistry and attention to detail that looking back at our photos and video feels like reliving the best day of our lives.
Csaba’s and Barbi’s ability to blend seamlessly into the day while still capturing candid, heartfelt moments was truly impressive. Beyond their incredible talent, Csaba and Barbi made the entire experience so enjoyable. They were personable, patient, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.

I’ve been in digital marketing for more than 27 years and have worked with thousands of businesses across hundreds of industries. It’s rare to find someone who truly understands how to combine creative storytelling, video engagement, and modern digital marketing into a system that drives real results.
Ben Whisenhunt and the team at Whisenhunt Media are doing exactly that.
What stands out most is Ben’s ability to create highly engaging video content that captures attention while still staying focused on business objectives. In a world where attention is the most valuable currency, that’s a skill very few agencies truly master. His understanding of social media, video marketing, branding, and audience engagement makes him an incredible asset for businesses looking to grow their visibility and connect with customers.
Beyond the technical expertise, Ben operates with integrity, professionalism, and a genuine desire to help his clients succeed. He cares about the outcome, not just the deliverable.
If you’re looking for a marketing partner who understands the power of video and knows how to turn attention into business growth, I highly recommend Whisenhunt Media.

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.
