About : Hands-on documentary filmmaking

The workshop is conducted in French, so a certain level of proficiency in the language is required to fully benefit from the training.

Registrations are open for the next workshop (May 4th, to June 23rd, 2026)

This intensive training, combined with the Hands-on Documentary editing course, allows participants to engage with the fundamentals of documentary filmmaking. After a brief period of technical initiation, analysis of reference works, scouting, and writing, each participant will move on to filming a short film on a common theme. The editing is carried out by an editing trainee under the supervision of professional editors. The goal is to understand the essential relationship between director and editor.
