Join NYWIFT for this three-part immersive documentary filmmaking workshop with Emmy Award-winning documentary filmmaker Luchina Fisher to explore the three essential questions every documentarian should ask before embarking on a project: Why me? Why this? Why now? Discover your unique voice and values as a storyteller, examine your connection to the stories you want to tell, and learn how to create documentaries that are ethical, impactful, and emotionally resonant.
Through guided discussions, project sharing, and practical exercises, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of your motivations, explore themes and potential biases, and determine the right timing and context for your story. Whether you’re a filmmaker, director, producer, journalist, or storyteller, you’ll leave with a clearer creative mission, practical next steps, and the tools to bring meaningful documentary projects to life.
The class runs Nov 10, 17, and 24 from 6:30 - 8 PM ET.
