FAQs

  1. What makes Dundas Media different?
    In simple terms: we turn your brand into entertainment. That could be a documentary series, a commercial series, or a global TV special — all designed to drive measurable ROI. For example, in Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica we followed the world’s first Discovery Yacht on an adventure to Antarctica. The series reached 54 million viewers across Discovery Channel and HBO Max, and helped the brand sell out its cruises for two years. That’s the model: story → premium distribution → direct return.

  2. What’s the process to get a project done?
    Working with us is simple — we handle everything from start to finish:

    Discovery – We learn about your brand, goals, and audience, and identify the most powerful story.

    Creative & Production – We shape the concept, strategy, and distribution plan, then film anywhere in the world with our global crews.

    Delivery & Distribution – We finish your content with world-class post-production and, if desired, place it on premium platforms like HBO Max, Discovery Channel, or design multi-platform campaigns.

    You get one partner from start to finish — no handoffs, no middlemen.

  3. What services do you offer?
    We cover all aspects of creative development and production, including:

    • Brand-funded docuseries

    • TV specials and global entertainment series

    • Premium commercials and branded content

    • Travel and lifestyle storytelling

    • Digital-first campaigns

    From the first idea to worldwide distribution, we own the entire journey.

  4. How long does a project take?
    It depends on the scale:

    • Commercials and branded content: usually 4–6 weeks.

    • Docuseries or TV specials: typically 3–6 months.

    • Need something fast? Our global network allows us to deliver at speed when deadlines are tight.

  5. Do you only produce for TV?
    No. While our shows air on platforms like Discovery Channel and HBO Max, we also design for multi-platform release — streaming, social, brand websites, and more. Every project is optimized for where it will be seen.

  6. Can Dundas Media handle distribution?
    Yes. Through our strategic relationship with Warner Bros. Discovery and other networks, we give brands a direct path to premium distribution. Your story doesn’t just get made — it gets seen by millions worldwide.

  7. How much does it cost?
    Budgets vary depending on scope, location, and distribution. A TV special has a different profile than a short-form campaign — but most clients find investing in one large-scale production with multi-platform deliverables is more cost-effective than running multiple smaller projects. We’ll tailor a plan that fits your goals and maximizes ROI.

  8. What have been some of your success stories?

    • Maritime Masters: Expedition Antarctica (Discovery Channel, Discovery+, HBO Max) – Reached 54 million viewers and helped a luxury cruise company sell out for two years.

    • Next in Wine – Shined a spotlight on Napa’s next-gen winemakers, driving global awareness and boosting sales and visitation.

    • Live Outlandish – A travel series that fueled tourism engagement and bookings through authentic adventure storytelling.

    Our model works because it blends storytelling expertise with guaranteed premium distribution, ensuring your investment drives real-world results.

  9. Where do you film?
    Anywhere your story takes us. With partners in over 40 cities worldwide, we can film in Los Angeles, Sydney, London, Dubai — or wherever your story is best told.

  10. What kinds of brands do you work with?
    We partner with ambitious brands who want to elevate their story into entertainment — from luxury travel and lifestyle to technology, sports, and consumer goods.
