Our Methodology

Paperjams methodology seeks to capitalise on creativity, messaging, professionalism and resource management. We will endeavour to fulfil all the objectives required while ensuring full participation of all stakeholders.

The team is committed to ensuring that proper consultation is undertaken with all stakeholders. Paperjam will always source for information prior to the documentation and use it for scripting purposes. This will form the basis of the production. The documentary will not be our story but will be crafted closely with all the parties involved from the community beneficiaries to implementers of the project.

We endeavour to develop unique audio/visual products that are both interesting and informative. We seek to maintain products have a uniform feel and that are portrayed in a creative way.

Necessary location shoots are be undertaken and complemented by special filming techniques such as time-lapse as well as interviews to ensure all information is well captured.

While developing our implementation plan we take all necessary consideration to ensure that we save as much time as possible, which involves having extra production crew on standby. By having predetermined scripts and production schedules, our team will be able to execute their mandate without losing quality and keeping true to the spirit of professionalism

We have worked with the Paperjam Productions team in documenting our Digital Matatus’ work here in Nairobi, Kenya. We were pleased by the wonderful job they did. We have used their media productions in local forums as well as international events and exhibitions.

In particular we were greatly impressed with the quality workmanship exhibited in the final documentary and the team spirit displayed from the start to finish of the project that was undertaken in Nairobi and surrounding areas.

Indeed we look forward to other opportunities for us to work together with the Paperjam team and hope that we shall be able to consult them on other project we have, in future.

We highly recommend the Paperjam Production team for media productions.

Yours sincerely,

Peter Waiganjo Wagacha, PhD. Digital Matatus Team C4D Lab, School of Computing and Informatics, University of Nairobi
