THAT
MATTER

First Drum Films is focused on producing documentaries that tell an interesting story. Whether it is historical, cultural, travel-adventure-driven, or even corporate, if it has a story to tell, it’s in our wheelhouse.

 

It is not as much about directing the story as it is about allowing a story to come to life, on its own terms

We attempt to capture stories at their core, usually storyboarding, filming, then editing. At times, we just capture it as it unfolds.
