What You'll Learn?
For the full career kickstarter, you can also apply for the Mentorship programme where you learn the art of documentary and travel filmmaking directly under one-to-one supervision. Mentorship could include making a real lief documentary on location and the creation of a pro-quality short film or showreel. Places for this are extremely limited.
