Documentary filmmaking challenge
Now in it’s 5th year, the Emmy-nominated International Documentary
Challenge returns to the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary
Festival in Toronto. This year’s challenge takes place March 4-8, 2010
with the Hot Docs premiere of the Finalists in early May.
The Doc Challenge is a fun and innovative competition that will push
your documentary skills to the limit. If you’re new to the idea, it’s
very simple: Filmmakers from around the world are given a genre
(Character Study, Music, 1st Person, etc.) and a theme (such as
“Change”.) Participants then have 5 days to develop, produce and edit
a 4 to 7 minute non-fiction film. The result is an exhilarating five
days for the filmmakers, and, as the films reveal, a joy for the
audiences at Hot Docs and beyond.
Registration is now open. Entry forms can be found at:
