Book by December 4 so there's time for your story call.
Can't make it? Hear about the next date first.Right now they get a logo and an About page you wrote in a hurry. You have a better story than that. You just haven't had someone pull it out of you yet.
Before the camera
A week before the shoot, we get on a 15-minute call to learn about your story.
On the day, there's no script. We ask questions and you answer them.



Where you'll use it
Put it on your About page. Let people meet you before they ever call.
Open your next pitch or grant application with it. Funders want to see who they're backing.
Your reels and headshots give you weeks of posts that sound like you.
Good people want to know why your company exists. Show them.
What you get
A short story about why you started your business.
Taken on your backdrop colour while the lights are still up.
30-second vertical cuts from your interview, captioned and ready to post.

See the work
The Kahani team is known for delivering high impact documentary films. Here's some of our other work.
Behind the camera
I've made films for 20 years. I started Founder Film Day because some of the best stories I hear come from founders, and most of them never get told. Let's tell yours.
For communities
Accelerators and coworking spaces can buy out a Film Day for their members. Your founders get their films. You get a day worth posting about. Ask us about group pricing.
Before you book
Most people do. That's why we talk for 30 minutes first, so nothing on the day is a surprise. You can stop and try an answer again as many times as you like.
Yes. Use your film, headshots and reels anywhere you like, paid ads included.
Yes. If your film doesn't feel like you, we'll re-cut it up to 2 more times.
A 30-minute call the week before. Then about 2 hours at the studio on shoot day. Your film, headshots and reels arrive within 7 days.
