New Inner Circle Begins April 30th

I’m excited to announce that my new Inner Circle 6.0 program begins April 30th!

The Inner Circle has become an extremely popular program, helping dozens of filmmakers achieve their vision.

Last night, I held a special joint Mastermind Call with Inner Circles 4.0 (now ending) and 5.0 (ongoing).  I was so happy to hear about their progress.  With the group’s advice and support, one member had gotten an interview with an important government official that he’d been trying to get for years.

Several other members of my recently ending Inner Circle 4.0 emailed me after the call to say how much the Inner Circle’s guidance and support meant to them. You can read a few of their testimonials below.

If you join my upcoming Inner Circle 6.0, you’ll benefit from some new improvements. In addition to receiving one-on-one consultations to structure your film with a world-class story consultant (yes, that’s me), you’ll receive a Strategic Planning session in which we create a road map to finish your documentary.

You’ll also benefit from our new Resources Page, connecting you to all former and future members of the New Doc Inner Circles.

The tight knit Inner Circle group acts like your extended editorial team and crew, helping you mastermind challenges that arise while directing your film.

The Inner Circle isn’t for everyone. But if you’re a passionate, committed documentary filmmaker, consider how this supportive group can radically move your documentary forward.

Here are two of several testimonials about the Inner Circle that I received last night after our Mastermind Call. Note they are addressed to the entire Inner Circle 4.0.

“The Inner Circle program was a very economical solution to identifying and tearing down the walls that held back my project. I especially want to thank you all for giving me the needed encouragement to continue. When you all voted to allow me into the group, I was at a crossroads and close to hanging it up. Without the courage to create I wouldn’t be watching a tangible assembly cut today. Karen’s written and video analysis of my footage, along with tutorials etc, gave me the tools I needed to stand back and re-think my vision so I could make adjustments in a more objective way…THAT’s a remarkable accomplishment, and I can’t help feel that I owe you my deepest gratitude.”

– Tom Parker, “Sound of the Surf”

“This has been an immensely enriching experience for me and you have all played a significant part in it. I am very much looking forward to your completed films.”

– Mark Davis, “Against the Tide”
