Made in Miami documentary
No stranger to a documentary, in 2018, Camila released a documentary on YouTube following her rise to fame from South Florida to a world famous pop star.

It also features interviews with her extended family and friends who describe the Cuban community in Miami as being very close and supportive.
Speaking about the new documentary, Camila said in a statement, “Thank you to YouTube for supporting me on my journey and for putting together such an incredible documentary. I’m so proud of my family and our story and I hope it inspires others to believe in themselves and pursue their dreams. Thank you to everyone who contributed.”
Made in Miami follows a young Camila to The X Factor audition where she was chosen to join Fifth Harmony, and eventually became a solo superstar. She explains why she decided to leave the group and recounts how she was so nervous about going into the recording studio by herself.
The video also features an interview with singer and songwriter Charlie XCX who admitted she "made all of the classic assumptions" that Camila was from a girl group who was put together, so she wouldn't have much writing experience, however that wasn't the case.
