An opportunity to network, share successes and challenges in documentary filmmaking, and provide feedback to several filmmakers on their trailers.
The Documentary Roundtable is a joint program of Docs In Progress and Women in Film and Video. This is a great way to get to know others in the DC-area documentary filmmaking community, build your network and know-how, and find out about other offerings of these two organizations.
This meeting will be facilitated by Docs In Progress alums Simone Fary and Richard Hall. As an antidote to the documentary filmmaker working in isolation, it’s a brainstorming, networking, and support group all wrapped up in one. This is an opportunity to meet others in the documentary community and share your latest successes, challenges, and tips on documentary filmmaking.
The meetings are FREE only for WIFV members or Docs In Progress Docs Insiders Premium Members. They are $10 for all others.
