About the Book

The purpose of this book is to offer a learning experience and an exploration into directing documentary story projects. Secondly, to provide fundamental and advanced ideas about actuality documentary filmmaking and nonfiction storytelling of all types using film, video, multimedia and other mediums. There are numerous critical reviews of documentary films and the stories they tell from a directing and filmmaking perspective. Understanding the storytelling structure of certain documentary directing styles helps in learning and building a personal directing approach.

The best directors understand the traditions and aesthetics of the medium in which they are working. They also have an understanding of the crafts involved and may have worked at some of those jobs themselves. The focus of this book is on directing, but it also includes information that experienced directors should know about the process of constructing a documentary story.

Finally, this book is a great read for anyone with a strong interest in documentary or nonfiction storytelling.
