mixed AUDIO The Documentary Form: How Nonfiction Cinema Constructs Truth
A deep exploration of documentary filmmaking as an art form and an argumentative practice — examining how nonfiction cinema uses structure, point of view, editing, ethics, and rhetoric to construct claims about reality. Drawing on landmark films from Nanook of the North to The Thin Blue Line to contemporary streaming docs, this course investigates the paradox at documentary's core: that representing "truth" always involves choices, and those choices shape what we believe.
intermediate AUDIO Documentary Techniques for Family Videos: Tell Better Stories with Your Camera
This course teaches you to apply real documentary filmmaking techniques — interviews, B-roll, natural sound, the radio edit, narration, and music — to transform casual home footage into films people genuinely want to watch. You'll learn the same foundational methods used by professional documentary makers, practiced in the most forgiving environment imaginable: your own family. The result is both a set of immediately useful skills and a lasting archive worthy of the people it preserves.
