The program consists of screenings, seminar discussions, production instruction, professional development sessions, critique, mentorship, many guest artist master classes, and weekly visits to relevant sites around New York City. The Summer Intensive exposes participants to a diverse set of creative documentary practices from around the world, encouraging experimentation and discovery.
