Online Discussion: "The Art of the Documentary Editor"

In an era when documentaries are increasingly character and story driven, and digital video encourages filmmakers to shoot hundreds of hours of footage, the editor's role as shaper of the narrative is more essential than ever.

Join us at The D-Word Forum beginning next Monday, October 20, as we welcome one of the top editors working today, Kate Amend, for a week-long discussion of ''The Art of the Documentary Editor.'' Kate's work includes the recent Oscar winners ''Into The Arms Of Strangers: Stories of the Kindertransport'' and ''The Long Way Home.'' The conference will be guest hosted by Kate's protegé, Yana Gorskaya, editor of the current documentary hit ''Spellbound.''

Go there

In the meantime, join us right now at The D-Word Community for a special Five-Day Topic: WHY I (CONTINUE TO) MAKE DOCS.

You coulda been a doctor. Coulda been a lawyer. Coulda been many things. Instead, you're a documentary filmmaker. Why? What inspired you? What continues to inspire you? Where did you go wrong? Tell us all about it
