Film School Workbook - Documentary

By Arnold Ytreeide

Producing a documentary is a process that has many steps, most of which must be done in a certain order. Fail to take one of these steps and your production may trip over legal, business, or artistic obstacles.This workbook is custom-designed to guide students at The Film School @ Northwest Nazarene University through the process of documentary production from idea to final release. But it can also be used by anyone who'd like to be sure they don't miss one of those critical steps.In professional work we wouldn't necessarily fill out paperwork and formally discuss every step in this workbook for every project. But even if you're shooting a quick and simple conference or pagent, you'll need to at least think about - consider - almost every one of these steps. It's what we call workflow.And this isn't even the end of the story. Large crews working on large documentaries - such as those created by Ken Burns - will have dozens more forms, processes, and procedures to follow. This workbook - and its companion Single Camera and Multicamera versions - comprises what we feel are the essential steps in producing a doc.Welcome to documentaries, and to The Film School @ NNU. You're about to tell a story you may not fully understand until it's finished!
