Heritage & Memory
The Elders Project

Zimbabwe's elders lived through the liberation struggle, independence, and the building of a nation. They carry stories, wisdom, and memories that no archive holds. Once they are gone, that history is gone forever.

The Elders Project is a dedicated videography service that records the life stories of Zimbabwe's elderly — their histories, memories, family wisdom, and lived experience — preserving them permanently as a professionally produced film.

For diaspora families, this is especially powerful. Commission a biography video of a parent or grandparent from anywhere in the world — we conduct the interviews locally, edit the film professionally, and deliver it digitally.

This also serves as a pre-bereavement service — capture the life story of a seriously ill loved one while they can still share their memories. One of the most meaningful gifts a family can create.

Standard
$150
2hr interview · 20–30min film
Premium

Full day · extended edit · narration
Diaspora

Add-on: Physical DVD + printed photo book — +$40

"Zimbabwe's elders carry history no textbook records. Their stories of struggle, resilience, love, and wisdom deserve to be preserved — not just for family, but for the nation. The Elders Project captures what time will otherwise erase." — The Phoenix Media Elders Project

Our Process
How It Works

From brief to delivery — a clear, professional process that keeps you informed at every stage.

Brief & Planning

Tell us what you need via WhatsApp or a call. We discuss concept, audience, deliverables, and timeline. We provide a clear quote and production plan.

Pre-Production

Script writing, mood boards, location scouting, scheduling. For commercials and brand content, we prepare a full creative brief for your approval.

Production Day

Our team arrives fully equipped. Professional filming with multi-camera setups where needed. We keep things efficient and deliver a great on-set experience.

Edit & Delivery

Professional editing, colour grading, sound design, and graphics. Review cuts shared for feedback. Final delivery in all required formats within the agreed timeline.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can you deliver a reel?
Single reels are typically delivered same day or next day. Reel packs (3 reels) are delivered within 48 hours. We prioritise speed because we know social media timing matters.
Do you provide a script or do I need to write one?
We can handle everything. For reels and social content, we often work with a brief and create the concept ourselves. For commercials and brand videos, script writing is available as an add-on ($50–$100) or you can provide your own script.
What's the difference between a reel and a commercial?
Reels are quick, social-first content (30–60 seconds, fast turnaround, optimised for Instagram/TikTok). Commercials are fully scripted, produced advertising with location shoots, voice-over, and broadcast-quality output. Different budgets, different purposes — we do both.
Can you produce a podcast from start to finish?
Yes. We handle everything — recording, editing, intro/outro creation, branding, and can advise on distribution setup. The full production package ($150 one-off) gets your show launch-ready. Monthly retainers then keep episodes flowing consistently.
Can someone abroad commission an Elders Project video?
Absolutely — a large portion of our biography commissions come from the diaspora. You WhatsApp us from anywhere, we conduct the interviews with your family member in Zimbabwe, produce the film, and deliver it to you digitally. From $180 for diaspora commissions.
Do you shoot on location or only in studio?
Both. We have studio capability for podcasts, interviews, and controlled shoots, and we regularly shoot on location for commercials, brand videos, events, and The Elders Project. We cover all of Harare and travel across Zimbabwe when needed.
What formats do you deliver in?
We deliver in whatever format you need — MP4 for general use, platform-optimised ratios for Instagram (9:16, 1:1, 4:5), YouTube (16:9), broadcast spec for TV, and audio-only formats for podcasts. USB, digital download, or both.
How does the monthly retainer work?
You pay a fixed monthly fee, we deliver an agreed number of videos each month. We schedule production days in advance, maintain your brand consistency, and include a monthly check-in to align content with your goals. Cancel any time with 30 days notice.
