Documentaries are one of the easiest types of films to make and earn income. They usually don't require a team as big as that required for a movie. Documentaries can be made by one person or can get the assistance of a film crew as needed. Some documentaries could include interview throughout the film to make it more interesting. Documentaries are usually about a singular subject and the circumstances or issues around that subject. The narrator may be the person who is the subject or is involved with the subject. Film footage from cell phones or camera or camcorder can be used to create the documentary. A good script is recommended to stick with. Tools for editing can include filmora, canvas, iMovie, final cut pro, Davinci, and similar types of editing software. Here is good structure for a documentary:
Tag Line (short intro with video on the subject to grab the audience attention)
Introduction
Subject Issues
Interview
More on Subject Issues.
Other Interviews related to subject.
Issue resolution if any.
Conclusion
Credits
Documentaries can be sold on Amazon, GumRoad, Vimeo, Patreon, or other types of platforms. They can also be sold to mainstream companies if good enough. They can also be put on Youtube or similar platforms to earn ad income. It's up to the creator to decide how to market the documentary.
