The Documentary Filmmaker's Roadmap is a concise and practical guide to making a feature-length documentary film - from funding to production to distribution, exhibition and marketing.

Her interviews with lawyers, funders, distributors and festival programmers provide a behind-the-scenes look that will assist readers on their own filmmaking journey. Written from the perspective of a successful documentary filmmaker, the book covers mistakes made and lessons learned, a discussion on documentary genre, pre-production through post, test screenings, the festival circuit, and more. Perfect for documentary filmmaking students and aspiring filmmakers alike, this book emphasizes the skills needed to succeed in a competitive production market. An appendix includes useful web links for further study, a list of films for recommended viewing, and sample release forms. This concise guide is ideal for the classroom or as a quick reference out in the field, at a budget meeting or in the editing room.
