Cinematic brand documentaries for businesses that are building something worth believing in.

Based in Wānaka, New Zealand — working with purpose-driven brands, adventure operators, and organisations ready to tell their story properly.

Who we are

"Our films have helped raise over $50,000 in charity donations, sold out live shows, and built brands people actually believe in."

I'm Sean Newens — filmmaker, storyteller, and the person behind every Life Captured production. I go deep. Before I film anything, I want to understand what you've built, why you built it, and what you want your audience to feel when they watch. Then I translate that into a cinematic brand documentary — intimate interviews, real imagery, the kind of edit that keeps people watching until the last frame. I've shot retreats in Bali, charities in Cambodia, festivals across Australia and New Zealand. I bring that same presence and care to every project — whether it's a two-minute brand film or a full documentary. If you're building something with purpose and you're ready for the world to feel it — let's talk.
