Why make a documentary?
Candidates come to you
The people you want to hire meet the team before they apply.
Customers feel connected
People buy from people they trust. A film lets them meet yours.
Investors get more than a deck
A film shows who built the company and why.
Your team matters
Seeing their work on screen tells people it counts.
It works for years
One shoot, a main film and cut-downs for every channel.
Few competitors have one
A real story on film is what gets shared and remembered.
About
An independent production company led by director and filmmaker Josiah McGarvie, who has been making documentaries for over a decade.
His work has taken him from Germany to the United States, filming with Google, Microsoft and Shopify and self-producing independent films like The Dividers. Now based in Mooloolaba, filming across Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast.
Filming in Brisbane
Brisbane Documentary Co. films across Brisbane, from the CBD and Fortitude Valley to the river suburbs and beyond. Josiah is based on the Sunshine Coast, just over an hour north, so Brisbane shoots need no travel days.
Every Brisbane project starts the same way: a conversation about the story, then research before the shoot, so the days on location are spent filming.
