Documentary Filmmaking Course:
"I found the Documentary Course to be really rewarding, challenging and inspiring. The training at Filmbase covers so many aspects of film-making. The staff at Filmbase are really encouraging and supportive while being really hands on and practical. Well done for setting up a complete documentary course that allows new filmmakers to experiment and find a voice."
