Video Editing for Nonprofit Organizations

Yes. A single day of filming can become a 60-90 second emotional piece for social and email, a 3-5 minute impact story for major donor meetings or galas, and a concise overview for grant committees — each cut for its own audience and purpose.

Yes. Stories involving vulnerable populations, trauma, or children are handled with care — framing, pacing, and music choices that honor dignity rather than exploit hardship for effect.

Yes. Nonprofit storytelling works best unscripted and authentic — I find the actual narrative arc inside raw interviews and program footage rather than forcing a corporate-style script onto it.

Yes. Numbers like people served, funds raised, or program outcomes get clean on-screen treatment so donors see the impact, not just hear about it.

Yes. Grant and campaign deadlines are fixed, not flexible, so I plan turnaround around your funding calendar rather than a generic queue.

Yes, within reason — nonprofit budgets are usually tighter than corporate ones, so let me know your constraints and I'll scope the edit to fit rather than quoting a flat corporate rate.

Same story-structure and pacing craft, but nonprofit work brings specific needs most documentary projects don't: multiple length cuts from one shoot, donor psychology, and careful handling of vulnerable subjects — this page focuses on exactly that.

Yes. I regularly sign NDAs before receiving unpublished footage, beneficiary stories, or campaign plans, and keep everything confidential.

Pricing depends on length, how many separate cuts are needed from the same footage, and turnaround urgency. Most single-cut projects fall between $100 and $600; a full multi-length video library runs higher. I'll quote exactly after seeing your raw footage.
