We’ve just confirmed three panelists for this year’s Doc Conference discussion on Documentary Ethics.
Geoffrey Smith (Presumed Guilty), Michael Tucker (How to Fold a Flag) and Vikram Jayanti (Snowblind) will participate in a panel discussion led by Pat Aufderheide from the Center for Social Media. Pat will be unveiling her new report on Documentary Ethics, which follows her immensely influential Documentary Filmmakers’ Statement of Best Practices in Fair Use.  Originally published in 2005, The Fair Use report became a foundation for fearless filmmaking in docs and has inspired application across disciplines.

Here’s a link to a great article that explores the impact of that original report.

The Doc Conference will be an exciting place to talk about these new ideas in doc creation.
