Nonprofit video production
Fundraising films and impact stories for nonprofits
Donors give when they can see the work. We make the films that show it, in the voices of the people your organization serves.
Doza Visuals is a Boston video production studio that works with nonprofits and NGOs on gala films, fundraising videos, program tours and photography. Recent partners include School on Wheels of Massachusetts, Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, the TB12 Foundation, The Trustees of Reservations and the New England Conservatory.
The approach is documentary: a small, respectful crew, conversational interviews, and time spent with your staff and community before the camera comes out.
Nonprofits and institutions we've worked with
What we make
Video and photography built for fundraising
One shoot is planned to cover more than one need: the film for the room, shorter versions for email and social, and stills for the appeal and the annual report.
Gala and fundraising films
The centerpiece film for your event or campaign, built around the people your work reaches.
Impact stories
Short portraits of students, families, members and staff, told in their own words.
Program and site tours
A first-hand look inside your programs for donors, partners and families who cannot visit in person.
Photography
Portraits and documentary stills for appeals, annual reports, grant applications and the website.
Social versions and captions
Cutdowns, vertical crops and captioned versions delivered with the main film.
Selected films

Questions
Nonprofit video, answered
Do you work with nonprofits outside Boston?
Yes. We are based in Greater Boston and work with nonprofits and NGOs nationwide, and have filmed internationally, including several projects in Rwanda.
Our gala is coming up. How much lead time do you need?
Most single films follow the same path: discovery (2 to 5 days), pre-production (7 to 14 days), one to three shoot days, a rough cut in 5 to 10 business days, then polish and delivery. Your side of it adds up to about 90 minutes. See the whole process. Tell us the event date first and we will plan backward from it.
The people in our story have never been on camera. Is that a problem?
No. Most of our favorite projects start that way. Interviews are guided conversations, the crew is small, and comfort on set is non-negotiable.
Can one shoot give us more than the gala film?
Yes. We plan coverage so the same days produce the main film, shorter versions for social and email, and still photography if you add it.
What does it cost?
Every project is quoted after a short discovery call, once we know the goal, the audience and what needs to be delivered. You get a one-page plan and a quote before anything is booked.
Can you work with us all year?
Yes. Organizations that need a steady flow of stories can work with us on retainer as a Content Partner.
