Film Trails crafts compelling short-form trailers and cut-downs — specializing in vertical social trailers, and working across festival, funder, and digital circulation. Each project is scoped individually based on creative needs, assets, timeline, and revisions. Use this sheet to outline your project; once scope is confirmed, I’ll provide a tailored proposal. Creative consultation calls are always welcome.
