Film documentary - Rome

The documentary films industry is an audiovisual production that in recent years has experienced a boom of investments, distribution, and creativity. Even if the boundaries of this type of production are very blurred, the absence of fictionality, the possibility of generating narratives at reduced costs, and the linkage with reality, are its three, main powerful features. Rome, with its timeless history and the greatness of its civilisations, is the ideal place to explore the realm of documentary films. The course is structured into three parts: introduction to documentary films; pre-production of a personal or team project; production of a short film. The course is recommended for students wishing to explore audiovisual production, and to find a real and fruitful expressive possibility in the film documentary industry.

This course is intended for students without any academic background in the specific subject area and for students attending their first year of university studies in Art and Design.
