Documentary Project
Subject Overview
Following on from Introduction to Documentaries, in Documentary Project students now have the opportunity to part take in creating their own documentary in a class group that will explore a subject of their choice within the local community. Students will learn research techniques, documentary scripting, and will choose what kind of documentary they want to make.
