Our documentaries focus on telling stories rather than laying down cold hard facts. We look for new angles that put a different spin on familiar subjects, aiming to create intimate portraits that engage the viewer. Throughout the production process we remain flexible and pragmatic to ensure the smoothest transition of people's stories to the screen.

Previous projects have focused on contemporary arts stories, although future programming is set to include current affairs documentaries and online docu-soaps. The examples listed below are just some of the stories we've covered to date.

Fragments & Echoes

Set against the historical backdrop of the Rhondda Heritage Park, dance impresario Chris Tudor directs a celebration of the spirit and culture of the South Wales valleys. Seven performances are presented in an outdoor spectacular that pays tribute to industry, history and learning.

Through the Rain

A straight-to-DVD documentary that focused on the members of Bridgend County Youth Theatre in South Wales during their production of the hit musical Singin' in the Rain. Featuring in-depth interviews with the cast and crew during a "boot camp" rehearsal week and an exclusive look at the design and choreography of the show's big finale. Narrated by Cerys John and produced for a limited run.

It's My Shout

A three-part documentary serial following a scheme in South Wales that introduces young people to the film industry via their own short film productions. The programme shadowed the project from auditions right up to the films' premiere. Featuring the voice talents of Rob Brydon, Owen Teale and Lauren Phillips; a co-production with Unit 15 Productions for ITV Wales.

Behind the Line

A one-off programme following a South Wales production of A Chorus Line for the Cardiff International Festival of Musical Theatre. The documentary explored the making of the musical from the earliest rehearsals until opening night. Narrated by Cerys John, and featuring the talented members of Bridgend County Youth Theatre.
