I’m adapting my upcoming non-fiction book into a series of live-action videos, released chapter by chapter (Video Part 1, Part 2, etc.). Each segment should feel like a polished documentary: serious, informative, and supported by a professional, authoritative voice-over that guides viewers through the material without distraction.

What I’ll provide
• The draft manuscript and any supporting research or images for each chapter as it’s completed.
• My own outline of key points that must appear on screen.

What I’m counting on you for
• Translating each chapter into a concise shooting script, proposing locations or stock footage where needed.
• Filming or sourcing high-quality live-action footage, B-roll, stills, and subtle on-screen graphics to maintain viewer engagement.
• Securing and directing an authoritative narrator, then mixing the voice-over cleanly with music and natural sound.
• Editing, colour-grading, and delivering one finished video per chapter in 4K and 1080p, ready for online platforms.

Acceptance criteria
1. Narrative stays faithful to the book’s facts and tone.
2. Visual pacing keeps viewer attention for the full runtime.
3. Audio mix is broadcast-ready with clear, well-balanced narration.
4. Each chapter video is delivered on the agreed milestone schedule.

If you have documentary credits, showreels, or voice-over samples that match a serious, authoritative style, please include them so I can evaluate fit quickly. Looking forward to collaborating on a compelling visual companion to my book.
