PMA: the conclusion

My last week at PMA was rather hectic. There was a lot to finish on Thursday, as Terri (the researcher I’ve been working with) came in to look at the archiving I’ve done, and figure out if there’s anything else that she needed to get from me before I left.

I had meetings with Kenneth and Agata during which time they told me about the documentary industry from their different standpoints — Kenneth very much working within the broadcasting, bigger budget realm, and Agata coming from the independent film side. The best part of all of this is that I do think that I have a future in documentary, even if it isn’t going to be what I’m doing all of the time.

This is where I leave off and pick up in my paper. Is being a documentary filmmaker a viable profession for someone in my current position?

We’ll see…

(I’ll post my paper on here in a few days… don’t worry!)
