A Pre-to-Post Primer on Documentary Filmmaking

Three producers with decades of combined experience under their belts join No Film School’s Liz Nord for a detailed primer on how to get a documentary made and seen. Geeta Gandbhir has been nominated for three Emmy Awards and has won two, as well as working professionally as an editor as such acclaimed titles as Oscar-winning 'O.J.: Made in America’, Chanda Chevannes is an award-winning documentarian as well as a film instructor at Centennial College in Toronto, and Chris Metzler is prolific documentarian known for cult favorite docs like the John Waters-narrated ‘Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea’ which won over 30 best doc awards and was broadcast on the Sundance Channel. In this episode, we cover an A to Z of documentary production, and discuss what a successful producer’s role is at every stage of a film’s life. Learn more at nofilmschool.com.
