New Guide Provides Focus for Documentary Filmmakers
Last week I announced the release of the new version of “The Ultimate Guide to Structuring Your Documentary,” which sold out when I first offered it in May. There are 4 days left to take advantage of my new guide for documentary filmmakers at a thirty percent discount.
If you’re wondering if this online seminar is for you, ask yourself:
- Do I have trouble staying focused on making my documentary?
- Do I feel uncertain about what direction the film should take?
- Am I having trouble making decisions about what and who to include in this film, and how to order the material?
There are many directions your documentary could potential take, so it can be challenging to hone in on the best structure. I created “The Ultimate Guide to Structuring Your Documentary” to share with filmmakers best practices for finding the most effective and compelling film possible. These storytelling strategies are gleaned from twenty-one years of teaching filmmaking at the top documentary program in the country, making my own five, award-winning films and mentoring hundreds of filmmakers in my story consulting practice.
This 12-week online seminar will show you how to craft a documentary using structural models of commercially successful documentary films. In fact, all of the 2010 award-winning documentaries from the Sundance Film Festival used at least one of the designs detailed in “The Ultimate Guide to Structuring Your Documentary”.
Delivered once a week over a 3-month period, this online seminar is available at a $100 discount for the next 4 days. For $197.97, you’ll get 12 video tutorials (averaging an hour each), weekly assignments to keep you on track, and loads of case studies for structuring character-driven and topic-based documentaries.
Dozens of filmmakers have learned from the “Ultimate Guide to Structuring Your Documentary” how to find the real story, navigate the stages of production and post, and edit a compelling three act structure.
“I recently completed ‘The Ultimate Guide to Structuring Your Documentary’,” says filmmaker Wendy Bancroft, “and I would absolutely recommend it for anyone struggling with questions like:
- ‘What’s the real story here?’
- ‘How do I begin, and then what?’
- ‘How can I make a great trailer?
I felt like I wasn’t alone; there was someone out there who cared and who had the answers.”
You’ll also get a free copy of my ebook, “Documentary Editing”. Check out what these award-winning filmmakers have to say about my instruction:
Susi Korda, Producer, “William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe”:
Karen Everett covers everything from finding and structuring your story to hiring an editor to making a fund-raising trailer in language that is precise and inspiring. This is invaluable information from someone who knows.”
Robb Moss, Director, “The Same River Twice” and “Secrecy”:
“With an insider’s love and knowledge of documentary form, Karen Everett takes us into the beating heart of documentary filmmaking. She gives us clear-headed and insightful strategies for a range of filmmakerly approaches to a variety of non-fiction subjects.”
