Turn-key video strategy, production, and marketing services
We do work for you. You won’t be burdened with project development or creating briefs - we take care of it all. Stay focused on the work you do best. The Kahani Approach collects each story multifaceted, so that they can be utilized for many applications, not just one single video. Stories aren’t told in a vacuum.
Relationships are at the heart
We believe that the best stories are told by building meaningful relationships with our partners and the people whose stories we’re tasked to tell. Our approach is to get to know people and their lived experiences.
Storytelling is more than a video
Stories are more than just the sum of their parts. Stories have a beginning, middle and end that can't be captured in an article or video alone--they require multifaceted storytelling to explore all different types voices from across communities.
We seek out stories and compile them in a way that they can be utilized across multiple platforms, we create content that match today's trends, but can live on as those trends change. This is how you'll see our work circumnavigating social media instability through artistic merit rather than algorithms - because sometimes the story needs to be told like it was lived--with emotion and humanity.
Our work takes place on the territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
Your story, all the channels
Stories aren't told in a vacuum. We seek out stories and compile them into hero videos, social media reels, graphics, blog posts and more.

"Completely blown away."
We wanted to capture a poetry reading at our office featuring Shane Koyczan. Kahani filmed it like we asked, and then went above and beyond by adding visuals and music that we would never have thought of doing. They went way above-spec and delivered an incredibly powerful video. It gained over 100,000 views in the first week!

The Kahani Approach
We believe that the success of a video marketing strategy is measured by how well it’s able to connect with people. That’s why we take the time to build meaningful relationships with our clients so that we can make a strategic approach to effective storytelling. The platforms are just the dressing, the real core ingredients are the stories and how they connect to each other in multi-faceted ways.
Our content strategy work involves a complete appraisal of your organization's position and codifies a comprehensive assortment of digital content that can be sustainably repurposed in the face of whatever platform and algorithmic changes that come now and into the future.
We are proud recipients of the 2022 Telus #StandWithOwners prize.
Kahani vs. other Vancouver video production companies
What we're asked
Our films are custom made from the ground up. No formulas. No templates. That means each project needs to be properly speculated and will have a unique price.
Production schedules can vary depending on the scope of the project and availability of everyone involved. However we typically require a three week minimum for post production (editing) in order to deliver the highest quality videos.
Yes we can. We have a highly skilled team that’s capable of making things happen as quickly as you need, however we will apply a rush premium of 20% of the total budget if the delivery must be made in under three weeks.
Our friendly producers are happy to lead you through a number of creative processes in order to format your story into a powerful script. We are keen writers and love a good creativity challenge.
Yes, please visit our Case Studies page to see how our documentary films have influenced real change. If you’re a business looking for an ROI with video, we can show you examples of the kinds of videos that drive sales and the kinds of videos that create life long fans for brands.

Inder was a pleasure to work with and more importantly he understood the vision and importance of our film. He is very professional, artistic in his own vision and executed our project seamlessly in a timely manner, meeting all deadlines while staying within the budget. I recommend him highly for any kind of filming whether it be a practical how to film or a story to be told.
I’ve worked with Kahani on several client projects and each time has been a great experience. One client did not expect to have such an emotional reaction to a video about their products. People were literally crying when the video was shown at the company retreat. This storytelling approach to corporate videos is a sure-fire way for businesses to stand out.
Our Central Communications team absolutely loved it and have been reposting and sharing it on social media since Monday after the video was formally introduced at the conference. From friends and colleagues, I often heard “wow, that makes me want to be a student all over again and go to SFU”. Kudos to you all for a fantastic job, and my deepest appreciation for your flexibility and willingness to collaborate under lots of constraints. Thank you.

A note from the founder
I’ve spent over a decade in digital marketing for big brands and have come to realize something very important.
In this day of marketing automation and banner blindness, real artful storytelling is the most effective way to reach hearts and minds.
We are helping companies connect to their audience in a unique way – through impactful videos.
If you’re someone that appreciates the value in beautiful films, then we should collaborate.
