Hands On Experience
Learn By Doing: We can't avoid theory entirely but we know that the best way to learn something is to do it - and we want you to do it.
Learn From Professionals: Whether you are taking workshops & learning how to make a documentary or joining an active project, you are learning and working alongside professional filmmakers.
Build Life Skills: Gain valuable skills in storytelling, interviewing, project planning and problem-solving - all while expressing your creativity.
More Than Just Filmmaking
This course is about more than just making films. It's about:
developing your voice as a storyteller,
building valuable transferable skills,
meeting new people,
challenging yourself, and
connecting with something larger than yourself.

What Participants Have Said
”Taking the MDT documentary course with Kevin was such a fun and inspiring experience.
Kevin transmits his knowledge with unmatched passion and energy, going above and beyond to support his students. More than anything, he gave us the confidence to dream big. I’m deeply grateful for that!”
- Juliette R
”I immensely enjoyed the course. Even though it's pretty intensive and requires putting a lot of hours not only into classes but also homework - it's definitely worth it!!!! Even during the worst weather on Saturday mornings, I always went motivated to leave the house to go to the class.
I'd recommend this class to absolutely everyone, regardless of whether you're a documentary cinephile or just have a casual interest. I believe that the course teaches a lot of skills that can be used outside of the film industry. Myself, even though I always loved documentaries, I couldn't imagine myself making them. I thought I just couldn't. This course not only gave me skills and foundation, but also confidence that it's possible for me to make a film, and maybe even get into the industry! ”
- Anastasia A
”Thank you for the course. I learned a lot and discovered how interesting documentary filmmaking can be. It was my first time filming and interviewing people, it was a great experience!"
