The Big Question: Should I be Filming at all?

This is from a recent news letter from Doc Society:

‘As our documentary field discusses and debates the burning question above, Doc Society has been working with our colleagues at Sundance Institute and Field of Vision to produce a ‘living document’ which offers a risk framework, current best practice and resource tools to help filmmakers, partners and funders navigate these unchartered waters. Independent Documentary: Filming In The Time Of Corona Virus is designed to encourage frank and open discussions at an early stage and to ensure that where there are doubts filmmakers err on the side of caution. We’d like to thank our General Counsel Prash Naik for his speed and wisdom.

We are super grateful to all the individual filmmakers and organisations who responded rapidly to the project, giving feedback and we’d like to offer a Vulcan salute to our co-signees below (and if you don’t know them all - check them out).’
