Documentary Film Schools

Documentary filmmaking is a different branch of the filmmaking industry. In order to make a documentary film, an individual is required to understand every single aspect of the subject. These include the historical, social and cultural backgrounds, production requirements and technical necessities. Obviously, it is a very difficult option to choose and needs proper research and guidance to reflect the expertise and perfection in the film.

The documentary schools conduct a survey of the other schools and explore the different styles, structures and formats of documentaries. Students are then encouraged to research, develop and produce individual subjects of the documentary. The classes include lectures, presentations, screenings and demonstration of the production methods and equipments. An insight on the post-production processes, camera work, sound recording, lighting issues, setting and interview recordings are an essential part of this program. Apart from this, students are given to work on a specific number of projects for shooting and digital video editing. The work is then critically reviewed and judged by the faculty.

The schools arrange programs for the students, where they have to document local issues or events and project the artists and characters, systematically, structuring a flow in the sequence. Once they are edited and recorded, the sound and titles are added. The films are screened and critiqued by the instructors. In short, the film schools prepare the students in analyzing and understanding the subtleties of documentary filmmaking.

Both beginners and experienced individuals can join these schools. These include producers, cinematographers, editors and writers. The course duration and fee structures vary from one institute to another. A minimum of specified college credit scores are required to qualify for these schools. Candidates may apply online and select the course from the online catalog. Details of admission and new sessions can also be found online.

Question by Jon: How do you break it to a liberal that he is wrong without hurting his feelings?
How do you tell a liberal friend he’s wrong without insulting him?

Now this is true, swear on my life:

I have this friend from college. He got a degree in, and I’m serious here, Documentary, Corporate, and Feature Filmmaking…from a tier 3 school you probally never heard of. He must have known that in that field, if you don’t go Ivy League or UCLA, you won’t find good work. Hardcore Obama supporter.

So, he is circulating this petition: some Democrat congressman wants to pass this bill that would forgive all student financial aide. Now, I feel that if he didn’t get such a stupid degree at a low level private college that charges 25Grand a year, he wouldn’t be in this mess. He believes he is entitled to have his loans forgiven since he pays taxes.

What do I say to him to tell him he is wrong without insulting him?
