Document 2019 DOCMA Workshop

Please note the originally advertised screening has been cancelled. The DOCMA films will now be shown before Ai Weiwei’s The Rest, Sunday 27 October, from 12.45pm.

A DOCMA is a 5-minute documentary film made by 5 filmmakers in 5 different documentary styles. It's a collaborative exercise designed to allow us to make documentaries together and get our creative juices flowing.

The workshop will take place on Wednesday 23 October at 7pm in CCA Clubroom. Teams will be formed, roles allocated and rules explained. You'll have two days to complete your own bit of documentary magic to be screened to fellow participants and friends on the final day of Document. Completed films will be added to the ever-growing online DOCMA archive.

Whether you’re a seasoned filmmaker or just curious to try it out, all you need to participate is access to something to shoot and edit on, no matter how basic. A smartphone will do just fine.
