For a story told over your own footage: the Documentary look, the Warm studio grade, a tight opening, and your clips where you name a place or a person.

A look, a grade and 2 scripts

As shotDocumentary story

One frame of a talk as shot and with the pack on: graded toward Warm studio, with a line in the Documentary look.

When to use it

Use it on a story you filmed yourself: how something was built, a client's project, an event or a trip.

Who it suits

It suits a creator with footage of the work itself. The look's gold and brown are warm and so is the grade, so the cards and the picture sit together. The second script needs clips of your own in the project.

What is in it

Using it puts on the look, then the grade, then runs the scripts in order. Each part can be undone by itself.

  1. LookDocumentary

    Warm and quiet over your own clips: serif titles on dark brown, gold for the words that matter, labels set in plain type.

  2. Colour gradeWarm studio

    A lamp-lit studio: warm whites, deeper blacks and a little more colour in the room, with your skin as it was shot.

  3. Script 1Tight opening

    5 steps. Makes the first thirty seconds earn the next thirty: the strongest line first, no dead air, and the title on screen.

  4. Script 2My clips on places and people

    7 steps. Finds the lines where you name a place or a person and puts your own clip of them there, each one checked by eye.
