In the Secondary School sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Documentary Editing delivers measurable results that transform how secondary school professionals communicate with their audience.
Secondary school video production serves a dual audience: prospective students (12-17 year-olds who respond to peer-driven content) and their parents (who evaluate facilities, academic results, and pastoral care quality). The content challenge is bridging these two audiences in a single production — student-filmed vlogs and Instagram content attract the younger audience, while professionally produced facility tours and academic achievement presentations satisfy parent concerns. Key content includes open-day event films, subject department showcases (STEM labs, arts studios, sports facilities), student achievement highlights, and anti-bullying/wellbeing messaging. International section and bilingual program promotion is a growing content need for schools seeking to attract globally mobile families. Production must work around school schedules, exam periods, and term-time child protection requirements. Budgets range from 1,000 to 5,000 euros per project for private schools, while public establishments typically rely on in-house production with occasional professional support for special projects.
Education faces a fundamental shift: students now expect video-first learning experiences. 65% of people are visual learners, and video-based courses see 25% higher completion rates. Yet producing quality educational content at scale — across subjects, levels, and languages — remains a significant challenge for institutions.
Universities compete for students through campus tour videos and program showcases. E-learning platforms need engaging tutorials that maintain attention. Corporate training requires compliance-tracked modules that employees actually watch. Each context demands different production approaches.
A business school replaced their print prospectus with a series of student life videos and virtual campus tours. Applications from international students increased 78%, and the cost per qualified applicant decreased by 45% compared to traditional recruitment channels.
Educational video delivers measurable impact: video-enhanced courses improve test scores by 20%, campus tour videos increase enrollment yield by 35%, and micro-learning videos reduce training time by 60% while improving knowledge retention by 25-60%. Institutions with strong video presence report 40% more organic applications.

Documentary editing is an exercise in finding the story within unscripted footage. We sift through 50-200 hours of raw interviews, B-roll, and archival material to extract a compelling thread. Our editors build paper edits first, then assemble selects into a narrative structure that balances information with emotion. Delivery typically takes 4-8 weeks depending on runtime. We handle subtitle integration for multilingual subjects and export in broadcast-ready formats including ProRes 422 HQ and closed-caption SRT files.
