Tips for Non-Profit Leaders ⤵️
You do life-changing work, but even the most powerful missions need a compelling story.

At Storyboard Films, we help nonprofits inspire action through impactful storytelling. We know how hard it is to distill your impact into just a few minutes of video. That’s why we bring years of experience and a thoughtful approach to every project—making sure your message truly connects.

This spring, we partnered with six Twin Cities nonprofits, who will raise nearly 💲3 million for vital programs.

Our videos are tools to rally communities and secure the financial support nonprofits need to thrive.

We’re proud to have contributed to the success of these local organizations:

FamilyMeans, Greater Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, InnerCity Tennis, Summit Academy OIC, St. Vincent de Paul School - Brooklyn Park, MN, Alzheimer's Association Minnesota-North Dakota, and Hammer Residences, Inc..

Tired of having to constantly Explain Your Value and What Makes You Different?

When every firm claims to “drive results,” “partner strategically,” and “deliver value”… how do potential clients know you’re the one they should trust?

Here’s the truth:
Buyers aren’t just comparing services. They’re comparing stories.

🔹 What’s your “why”?
🔹 Who have you helped—and how?
🔹 What’s it like to work with you?

If you can’t communicate those answers quickly and emotionally, you’re just another name in the deck.

🎥 That’s where video comes in.

We create documentary-style brand videos that show—not just tell—your difference. Real stories. Real people. Real impact.

Because when a potential client sees your passion, hears your clients talk about your impact, and gets a sense of who you really are…

That’s when trust starts to form.
That’s when you stop competing on price.
That’s when you become unforgettable.

👋 If you’re a firm in the Twin Cities looking to finally cut through the noise, we’d love to talk. ➡ StoryboardFilms.com

Interviews are our sweet spot. Location is variable - we conquer indoors with professional lighting or outdoors with mother nature’s sunlight.

We love variety. We thrive on it. It’s what keeps us sharp, curious, and creative.

At Storyboard Films, we considered the idea to “niche down.” But for us, the niche is the approach—not the industry. Our specialty is documentary-style storytelling: real people, real clients, real founders, real volunteers, and real company cultures.

Yes, this style resonates strongly in certain industries—but we don’t limit ourselves to just one. Whether it’s a nonprofit campaign or a corporate brand video, what matters most is the story—and the people it’s meant to reach.

What connects our work across clients is this: we focus on the end user. What do they need to hear, feel, or understand to take action? That’s the heart of every video we create.

Working across a wide range of clients gives us fresh eyes, keeps us from falling into creative ruts, and allows us to bring new perspectives to every project. Variety isn’t a distraction—it’s our superpower.

If you’re looking for a video partner who leads with curiosity and crafts stories that connect, we’d love to learn more about your story.

Whose story would you love to hear—someone in your industry, at your company, or among your clients?

At Storyboard Films, we help you choose the best voice for your video and guide you through a fully facilitated, stress-free interview process.

Asking the right questions to spark authentic stories is our superpower. Before filming, we collaborate closely with clients and interviewees so everyone feels confident and prepared.

On shoot day, we make it easy and enjoyable. With pro lighting, high-quality equipment, and a relaxed environment, you’ll feel like a talk show guest—not an actor. And don’t worry—editing ensures you only shine.

No scripts. Just real people, real stories.

We’re looking to partner with companies and nonprofits who have meaningful missions, standout cultures, or a story worth sharing.

Let us help you bring those stories to life through short, documentary-style videos.

We specialize in 3–7 minute professional videos for:
• Marketing: showcase your service, product, or mission
• Culture & recruiting: highlight what makes your team unique
• Nonprofits: drive impact, awareness, and fundraising
