I’m one of the founders at Thrill Wave.
We make documentary-style films for big brands, NGOs, and institutions.
As online video gets cheaper and noisier, we focus on what still matters: real stories, real access, real signal.
We were hired for a sensitive public health campaign.
The audience had every reason to distrust the messenger.
We studied weeks of Facebook comments before we touched a camera. The resistance wasn't ignorance. It was rational.
So we built sets that felt like home and a local clinic. Cast real community members, not actors. Unbroken takes. No cuts. No music.
The research decided the format. Not us.
@milesdeutscher the real winners are: the ones who, up until now, were too difficult to work with, and now have an endlessly tolerant super-genius co-worker to abuse
@Adam_Wilbanks it's crazy how people who had no interest in building software products 1 week ago are now schizo-obsessed with building software products (me)
Another great same-day recap edit we produced for @GoldrushFestAZ .
This video was shot, edited and delivered to the client before the headliner was even done performing.
One of our special offerings at @thrillwave_ , same-day editing/delivery for large events. We produced this daily recap and 7 other deliverables on-site with our A-team.
Stay tuned for the full aftermovie
