Reimagining documentary: Formats, markets & business
DOK.forum Industry Training Talks 2025
The documentary landscape is evolving, with new formats, shifting markets, and changing business models reshaping storytelling and distribution. As short-form, digital platforms, online film and media libraries, vertical video, and series gain traction, where is the real opportunity for filmmakers?
