Documentary Filmmaking Step by Step: How to Develop Your Idea and Get it Financed
English | 1hr 8m | Video: 720p
Get filmmaking secrets, from developing your idea to getting your subjects on board, to finding the money to make your film, and everything in between from me, Adam Bhala Lough, a Spirit Award nominated, 3-time Sundance Film Festival alum and one of Filmmaker Magazine’s Top 25 Indie Filmmakers to Watch.
I’m an internationally acclaimed 14-year vet with four documentaries currently on Netflix and three that were the #1 documentary on the iTunes charts. I’ve had an incredible amount of success in my career but I have also failed many, many times. You will learn where I failed along the way so you won’t make the same mistakes.
I’m also a mentor at the Sundance Native labs and Latino Screenwriting labs and was a mentor at the 2015 SXSW Film Festival mentor sessions so I know how to teach in a concise and clear way.
Why should you take this course and not another?
Other courses give general knowledge of how to make a film from people with very little actual real world experience. This course is taught directly from my experience making eight feature length documentary films, all of which have received worldwide distribution and been translated into many languages.
