Learn how to take a documentary project from inception to exhibition from acclaimed Edmonton filmmaker and anthropologist Niobe Thompson. Moderated by Katrina Beatty, this conversation-based lecture will take an in depth look at the role of the producer in documentary film using examples from Niobe’s most recent project, EQUUS: STORY OF THE HORSE (recently aired on CBC). Topics covered will include project development, working with creative, financing, legal considerations, and distribution. This talk will be oriented towards filmmakers with an intermediate knowledge of film production, but all experience levels are welcome to attend.
