Approach
Absorb Studios recently completed the "Ann's Story" project for Peace Restored, a nonprofit organization that aims to help women find hope and healing from difficult life experiences such as abuse, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and more. The project involved creating a mini-documentary that highlighted the founder's personal experience of abuse and how it led her to start Peace Restored.
The primary objective of the project was to create an emotional and impactful documentary that focused solely on the founder's personal experience of abuse. To achieve this, we decided to film Ann in a dimly lit room with a single chair and avoided using any b-roll footage or additional content. We wanted the audience to focus solely on Ann's story and the emotions that she conveyed.
Our team began by conducting several pre-production meetings with Ann to gain a deeper understanding of her story and her personal experiences. We also had several discussions with the Peace Restored team to ensure that the final product aligned with their goals and objectives.
Once we had a clear understanding of Ann's story, we began the production process. We filmed Ann in a dimly lit room, using a single camera setup to create an intimate and personal feel. We opted for natural lighting to capture the raw emotions of Ann's story.
Post-production involved a meticulous editing process, where we carefully selected the footage that best conveyed Ann's story and emotions. We worked closely with the Peace Restored team to ensure that the final product met their expectations and conveyed their mission effectively.
