A number of interesting posts have been published on this year’s “Making Your Documentary Matter” conference in New York. Organisers at the Center for Social Media have put their notes and videos on the website, and published an article about how to measure the social impact of documentary films (including a case study on the film “Sierra Club Chronicles”).
At the conference, over 200 filmmakers and non-profits talked about further strengthening ties, but also admitted that the close relationship sometimes requires compromise on the filmmaker’s artistic vision. Dennis Palmieri, director of communications at ITVS said if documentary filmmakers want to be agents of change, they have to begin to separate form and content. In other words, films might need to be customised to focus on different angles of the same theme, when presented to different audience groups.
