Jesus, why is this channel only at 900 subs. The production quality is great and the tips are awesome for other documentary filmmakers such as myself. Good stuff

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Thanks Lynn! I appreciate it, to be honest I’m not really sure why the channel isn’t doing better lol. Maybe it just takes time🤷🏻‍♂️ Thanks for the compliment and let me know if you ever have any questions?

[@seanlefloch]

Ha! Crazy looking at this comment now seeing over 38,000 subscribers. If you’re good people will find you congrats!

I'm making a mockumentary for a college project and this was extremely helpful man

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Awesome brother glad it helped 🤗 let me know if you have any questions about anything regarding documentary filmmaking!

[@evekeepings5996]

Thank you Alex! Priceless information. So precise and helpful. I seriously can't thank you enough. It just took me 10 years to finish a full length documentary film (my passion project) and with this short video of yours, I am hoping I can create a trailer in much less time... LOL :). Cheers, Eve

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

No problem brother I’m glad you found value 🙏🏻

[@KyleWhiteTV]

That was flipping excellent! Thank you so much bro! I’m gonna learn a ton from you

[@leescooking]

I just finished my KZbin channel trailer, with inspiration from this video. It's a cooking channel, and I used the dramatic approach. I'm a novice, but I was happy with how it turned out. I'm saving up for some lights which would have made it so much better. Thanks so much for this video.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

That’s awesome Lee I’m sooooooo HAPPY that this helped. Good luck on your channel and share a link when you can🙌🏻

[@grimcreative]

Keep it up man, I see you're still posting the subs will come soon. Great video.

Thanks brother

[@canheinrichtoepffer1813]

Your video was really helpful :) Thank you

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Of course man thanks for watching!🙌🏻

[@marcrhm6631]

Very well done! But this is for a very specific kind of documentary, if your doc is more verite, slice of life, e.g. Grey Gardens (or the type of film i'm working on) - it would probably need to take a different approach. Any suggestions on that?

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

There’s no one size fits all, most of my projects tend to bit a bit on the dramatic and intense side lol 😂 send me a link to something and I could give you my advice.

[@mduduzikhumalo5261]

I like it my brother,I'm at South Africa

[@mustaphasahouadj]

Too much information, thank you 🙏🏼, helps me a lot your videos maaan.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

So glad it helps my brother!

[@tylerroberts9266]

the UFO doc You did the trailer for, What was that doc called? it looks so good.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

That trailer was part of a pitch to a film that ended up never getting funded

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

[@movie_maker_mike]

Hey, Alex! This video is great. I would love to get your opinion on a documentary trailer I'm editing right now.

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Can’t find a link to this film you’re presenting here. Would like to see it

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

here's the link to the video vimeo.com/444696687

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

unfortunately the film never made it out of post production because of budget restrictions :(

[@DLHMedia]

@@Alexzarfatifilms is there a full length film or just a trailer?

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

@@DLHMedia unfortunately the film never made it through post production due to budget cuts.

[@gibbo6743]

any suggestions for finding good music for trailers like this?

[@Alexzarfatifilms]

Musicbed is probably #1 and then my Artlist and premium beat, but maybe check out sounds tripe they have a good growing library
