Non-Profit Videos
Full-Service Video Production for Nonprofit Videos
How would your life be different if you had never gone on that trip? Met that person? Had that experience? Would your heart have caught fire for the same cause?
To spread your passion, then, you need more than just words. You need to take others with you on that trip to meet that person and share in that experience so their hearts will be stirred like yours.
Nonprofit videos can help you share your passions with millions and educate them about your cause. At Dynamis, we specialize in helping churches, parachurch organizations, and family-focused charitable organizations throughout Northern Virginia, DC Metro area and beyond.
Featured Project: “Unlocking Joy”
This client needed a compelling video to raise awareness for one of their charitable funds during their largest event of the year. Dynamis traveled across the country to meet with a past grant recipient and film an amazing story, then returned to Metro DC to weave it together with motion graphics and original music.

Our Services Include:
Script Writing
Cause-based nonprofit videos have to reach deeper than most other videos in their class – through the head and into the heart. This power to move both the mind and the emotions start with a powerful script. We help you share your cause with the world in a way that will both inform and persuade.
Video Production
Nonprofit videos are often a hybrid of dramatic reenactments, live event footage, and interviews. This requires the unique skills of a production company that specializes in storytelling and has experience in both the dramatic film and corporate worlds. We bring this experience to the table and can help you plan, coordinate, and shoot your film.
On a case-by-case basis, we also travel outside our normal service area. We’re unafraid to get our hands dirty and can travel anywhere from the inner-city slums to the African savannas.
Photo Retouching
Many nonprofit videos make use of photos taken “in the field” or in the course of day-to-day business in a ministry. Such photos are often shot on the spur of the moment by whomever is available and may require image editing or retouching to conform to video standards. We take all your existing photos and optimize them to the greatest extent possible before using them in your video.
Video Editing
During the editing phase, interviews, staged shots, live footage and photos come together to form your story. We sort through volumes of footage to find the perfect shot and the perfect words to communicate your message. Depending on your budget and the scope of your project, we can also source stock videos and photos to capture important ideas, people, or places that may have been impossible to shoot, such as a foreign location or a medical procedure. These added touches can go a long way toward rounding out your project and helping your audience connect with things they may never have seen before.
Color Correction & Color Grading
The extra step of color correction and color grading is one that is often forgotten in cause-based videos, but one that we feel is vital in giving your video the power and professionalism it needs to make the most difference it can make. We make sure all your footage – even clips we didn’t shoot ourselves – are optimized to the greatest extent possible, then graded to create a unified and powerful whole.
Motion Graphics
Motion graphics can be of inestimable value in cause-based videos, since moving text and images can illustrate abstract concepts, such as facts and statistics, that video and images alone cannot. We help your audience envision how much of the world is affected by hunger or how much money is left for a fundraiser. Motion graphics can also dramatically increase your video’s visual interest so you grab the attention of more people and have more of them share it with friends and spread your cause.
At Dynamis, we’re passionate about helping our world and can support projects of all sizes and for all types of churches, ministries, and family-focused nonprofits. Whether you’re an international ministry or a small group of friends devoted to making a difference, we want to help. Contact us to discuss your project and see how video can help spread your cause.
