The document provides guidance on making a documentary film. It outlines that documentaries can be inexpensive, fast, and creative. It advises finding a topic you care about and doing research. The key steps are to write a treatment that includes an overview, outline, and summary to gain support. Conducting good interviews involves making the subject comfortable while discussing your goal and asking follow-up questions. Next steps include choosing a topic, writing a treatment, scheduling shoots and interviews, and doing an initial edit.

From Research To Edit: new ways of collaboration within documentary production Nico Oorts
See our talk here: https://vimeo.com/74920474
In a partnership of producers of factual content at VRT, public broadcaster, and Limecraft, the company behind the online production platform Flow we re-imagined the documentary workflow in order to enable collaboration. Simultaneously we tackled issues endemic to documentary, factual and news production: facilitating, timing, transcribing and annotating interviews, collecting, reviewing and structuring research from a variety of sources and building a narrative without using a standard formatted script.
We developed a researcher application with following integrated tools: a docu board, a transcription tool and a storybuilding tool. The docuboard allows for mind mapping website content, audiovisual material and text. The transcription tool partly automates transcription using speaker’s recognition and keyword spotting. The storybuilding tool offers the user blocks to build a narrative from content collected in the docuboard and the transcription tool.
As the researcher application is integrated with Flow, all data are semantically discerned and universally represented in its underlying data model. As such data can be rendered in any required production document and turned into metadata. Stored in one single online repository, worldwide collaboration between different production members becomes possible.

Be Amazing: 5 Rules for Great Presentationsjcasimir
We all need to communicate ideas and, for business purposes, the ability to run a successful presentation is essential. In this session we discuss five rules to help guide your planning and delivery.
Inclusive customer interviews make it your friday taskTed Drake
Customer research has been a core part of Intuit from the earliest days of the company. In the 1980’s Intuit engineers would hang out at computer stores to find people buying Quicken software and ask if they could follow them home to watch their installation process to learn
about pain points and opportunities. Kurt Walecki, Intuit VP of Design, described the importance:
From the very beginning, Intuit has done user research both to understand how customers are using their current products and to identify customers’ unmet needs, allowing them to introduce new products to the market to satisfy them.
Every product and team at Intuit uses customer research and interviews to design and build products and new functionality. Intuit’s use of Lean Startup includesthe mantra “fall in love with
the problem, not the solution”
.
The goal is to understand the customer’s pain points and missed opportunities first, expand on the problem, build prototypes, continually review with the customer to test solutions, and then promote it to a product feature. This customer focus ensures the product grows with useful features and doesn’t bloat with unnecessary technology.
This is my research for focus group.My results will enable myself to plan my focus group well so that it will be a success. My research consists of highlights of notes from Krueger's Focus Group Pack

Storytelling with Data
There’s a story in your data that only you can tell.
In this session Sandeep dives into how we could all suck a little less at bringing out what our data has to say. Storytelling is not about good visualization or presentation skills, though both of these are important, it is about knowing the plot, handling the narrative, and making the audience own it when you’re done. At least 10 principles with loads of examples and cases to make the point from someone who’s spent over 15 years successfully getting people to listen to what their data has to say.
----------------------------------------
Well let's get real it's a competing world and only the best can survive. We have to always try to get the most out but in a well planned and organised way. The more senior your audience, we learned, the less you should rely on your presentation deck and the more you should expect your 'PITCH' to be a conversation, showing your team’s authentic passion for the challenge or problem and their resilience for solving it creatively, together. So combine your pitch with the combination of killer presentation and impression.

Editor's Notes
\n
Morgan Spurlock rose to fame with his documentary “SuperSize Me” The premise? Eat nothing but McDonald’s food for 30 days. The message? Our fast food lifestyle is doing more harm than good. \n7th highest grossing documentary film of all time.\nMcDonalds reaction was to issue a press release denouncing Spurlock’s experiment as part of the problem, not part of the solution. And then they eliminated the “super size” option for their food products in the U.S.\nOh, and Morgan became really famous and pretty rich.\n
Farenheit 9/11, Sicko and Bowling for Columbine are three of the top grossing documentaries of all time. \nHis movies are controversial, some have said he “fakes” scenes for dramatic effect. You be the judge. \n
What makes a good documentary? \nA documentary is about telling a story. Think about the stories you want to tell. \n
\n
This is a Flip Video camera. It costs around $150. You can make a documentary with this. \n
In the old days, the only people that made documentaries were the National Film Board the the BBC.\nWith digital editing and distribution methods such as YouTube, today you can quickly create and post your documentary for the world to see. \n
Think of some of the ways in which people creatively tell stories through their documentaries. \nMichael Moore put himself in the role as investigator in Bowling for Columbine. He wanted to get to the bottom of the issue of gun control and violence in the U.S.\nThe Kid Stays in the Picture takes an autobigraphical approach, with film producer Robert Evans narrating his own life. \nMarch of the Penguins is not your typical nature documentary. It tells a dramatic story from the Penguins’ perspective.\nIn SuperSize Me, Morgan Spurlock makes himself an experiment. \nIn Trekkies, the story is told through a series of interesting characters.\n
\n
Look around you. Sometimes the most everyday things, every day people make the best subjects. \nChoose a topic that you find fascinating. Your passion for a topic will go a long way in your ability to tell a good story about it. \nChoose a topic that is accessible. Don’t do a documentary on the Sahara Desert if you can’t get there. \n
Research research research. \nDocumentaries an exploration a particular subject. The goal is to learn about something and share that knowledge through a visual or audio medium.\nIronically, in order to really tell the story well, you have to do some research first. \nResearching a topic helps you to decide a very important thing - your angle. \n
Your angle is how you are going to approach your topic. \nAfter you’ve done some research and learned a few things, you will have a better understanding of where you want to go with your story.\nDid you find out something really interesting about your subject? Explore it.\nMaybe you want to do a documentary on your grandfather, who fought in World War II. After talking to him, doing some online research on the unit in which he served, you discover that he was a prisoner of war and that he saved the lives of 7 men during his time in the war. Instead of just doing a documentary that profiles your grandpa you will now tell the story of what it was like to be a POW and a war hero through the eyes of your grandfather. That’s your angle. \n \n
Put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and start writing down your ideas. This will help you to formulate how your documentary will play out. \nStart by brainstorming with the group. Write everything down, good ideas, bad ideas. Don’t judge or criticize any ideas. \nTalk about who you should interview. What kinds of visual elements you need. Music? Locations? Get it down.\n
Morgan Spurlock wanted to do a documentary to help highlight the severe obesity problem occurring in the United States. \n
He did some research and discovered some very alarming statistics. \n
He did some research and discovered some very alarming statistics. \n
\n
Spurlock decided, rather than just getting differing opinions on the subject, to actually find real answers by immersing himself in an experiment. Thus, Supersize Me was born. \n
\n
\n
The treatment is a key component of getting your project underway. Whether you are looking for buy-in from your boss, financing in the form of grants etc, or to submit your film to a festival, you will need to provide a treatment. \n
First, come up with a working title. A title helps you to think of your documentary as a real thing. Then write a brief review/description of your story. Then, describe your hook - that vital piece of interesting information that will catch your viewer’s attention. \n
Editorial approach - what is the point of view from which the story is being told? What’s the story? How are you going to tell it?\nWho are the main characters/subjects of your story? Remember, the characters do not have to be people!\nWhat is the style in which you will shoot the film? Examples include - cinema verite, news style (interviews and narration), docu-drama, mockumentary.\n \n

Examples include - cinema verite, news style (interviews and narration), docu-drama, mockumentary.\n \n
Find that one thing about your topic that is most fascinating or interesting. Make that your angle. To find that thing - you need to ask questions. \n \n
Can you easily access the locations, people, photographs, events you need to in order to complete your documentary?\n \n
Get those ideas out. Brainstorm as a group an figure out how you are going to make this project happen. \n \n
Write your treatment. \n \n
Your treatment is due in 1 week. But you should also be working on scheduling your interviews, shoots, and planning how and when you are going to get your editing done. \n \n
