Charities & Non-profits

People don’t connect with statistics - they connect with stories. At We Make Films, we help charities and non-profits tell those stories in a way that’s authentic, emotional, and impactful.
Whether you’re raising awareness, showing results, or celebrating volunteers, we create films that move people to care - and act.
Why video works for charities
Video is one of the most powerful tools you have. It helps you:
- Inspire support – Show the real people behind your cause
- Build trust – Demonstrate transparency and impact
- Attract funding – Strengthen campaigns with professional storytelling
- Show gratitude – Celebrate donors, partners, and volunteers
We understand the sensitivity and respect required when filming people and communities. Every project is handled with the care and sensitivity your work deserves, especially when filming people, communities or lived experiences.
We work with charities across health, education, environment, community impact and social change, helping each one communicate its mission clearly.
How we help you tell your story
Our process starts with understanding your mission and audience. Then we plan, film, and edit a story that feels natural - not staged.
You can expect:
- Genuine interviews and natural sound
- Minimal disruption to your day-to-day operations
- Subtitles and accessibility options for wider reach (when required)
- Flexible packages to suit charity budgets
We’ve worked with non-profits and sustainability-focused organisations who rely on honesty and emotion to connect with their audiences.
The results you can expect
- Campaign films that raise awareness and spark conversation
- Social snippets that keep your supporters engaged year-round
Our films are designed to live beyond a single campaign - reusable, adaptable, and crafted to keep inspiring people long after the first viewing.
Let’s create something that makes a difference
If you’re ready to show the impact your organisation is making, we’d love to help.

FAQS
Our clients value our clear communication, attention to detail, and the fact that we make the process straightforward and stress-free. We're here to give pioneering brands a platform to make positive change.
We understand things can change. We’ll always try to be flexible, but if cancellation or rescheduling happens at short notice, some costs may still apply (e.g. crew fees, location hire). We’ll explain this clearly in your general service agreement.
We’re based in Bristol UK, but we film nationwide and can travel internationally when required. Travel and accommodation costs are agreed upfront.
Most clients request MP4 files optimised for web and social, but we can deliver in ProRes or other professional formats if required. We’ll make sure you get versions that work for your chosen platforms.
If you require vertical or square cuts for social media, please mention this during your initial consultation.
Yes. We can provide open captions (burned in) or closed captions (separate files) depending on the platforms you’re using. Multi-language captions are also available if needed.
Not at all. We’re happy to work from a detailed idea or just a rough outline. Our team can help with creative direction, scripting and storyboarding to make sure the video achieves your goals.
Our standard productions cover:
- Pre-production (planning, scripting, scheduling)
- Filming (crew, cameras, lighting, sound)
- Editing (cutting, colour, sound mix, graphics)
- Licensed music and captions as required
- Delivery in the formats you need
Additional costs may apply for actors, specialist locations, travel, or multi-language subtitles – but we’ll make that clear before starting.
Every project includes includes two rounds of amendments per deliverable.
To improve efficienty of the feedback process, all comments are made through an online platform where you can annotate directly on the video.
This allows our post-production team to see and address your feedback accurately within the video timeline.
Once your team has consolidated and submitted all feedback, let us know, and we'll begin making the necessary adjustments.
Should further changes be needed beyond the included amendments, any additional work will be subject to an extra fee, which we will quote and agree upon before proceeding.
