Thanks to a generous grant from The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Doc U is taking to the road with educational and informative talks in Chicago, New York, and D.C.
We conducted a survey of topics to determine what we should cover on our road trip. We saw overwhelming support for Can Your Doc Change the World?, a panel that will cover how to leverage partnerships and outreach to make sure that your documentary has the greatest possible impact.
These cities were selected due to a high number of IDA Members in these areas, some of whom probably felt a little left out from all the fun we were having in Los Angeles. Don't worry, East Coasters—we're coming your way soon!
This is the second year in a row that The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is funding the Doc U program to go on the road, and we're excited to reach audiences beyond Southern California for the first time in over a year. Stay tuned for dates, locations and panelists.
