Eco Doco How To Guide
A gentle approach to short documentary making.
Eco Doco is a learning program for people who want to understand documentary making without feeling overwhelmed by technical language or fast paced instruction.
It’s designed for beginners, creatives and curious observers who want to learn how stories are shaped - from early ideas through to sharing - with respect to the subject, the environment, and the process.
The Eco Doco How to Guide is structured around the natural stages of documentary work:
PreProduction
Production
PostProduction
and thoughtful Promotion
Learners are encouraged to move at their own pace, returning to sections as their understanding deepens.
Eco Doco values:
preparation over haste, and
simplicity over complexity.
Alongside the How To Guide, the Eco Doco Podcast will offer a more reflective entry point for those who want to explore the ideas and thinking behind the craft.
Eco Doco is not about producing more content, it’s about learning to observe by being attentive, listening carefully and telling stories well. As a subscriber, you'll have access to exclusive behind-the-scenes tips and resources, to make your documentary even stronger.
