Thanks, Doug. I'll be sure to check it out.
Introduce Yourself: Sign In Here First
Welcome to The D-Word! Stop in and sign the guest book - let us know a little (or a lot) about yourself.
Please note that this is one of our Public Topics, so best to enter email addresses with (at) to prevent them being harvested. Spam will be deleted.
Regan, it's really great to have enthusiastic, fresh young blood infusing The D-Word. So jump right in to any forum without hesitating. We'll all be the better for it. And that goes for everyone who's registered recently or lurking out there in the dark. We simply don't exist without your posts. No questions too unenlightened. No sharing of experience we don't welcome wholeheartedly.
Thanks for sharing that, Doug, (I especially liked that part about being referred to as a "young" blood). =)
It can seem intimidating to chime in with questions and thoughts sometimes, but I'll give it a go! I'm sure I'll have lots of unenlightened quandaries to pose along the way that may, if nothing else, amuse the wiser, more experienced ones among us. Maybe they'll take pity on me and share some insights...? ;)
Thanks to Mikal Jakubal for getting me on here!
hey regan, you must know Renee Tajima-Peña pretty well, yes? she's my Executive Producer for my film WHATEVER IT TAKES. Renee was a big help to me (and continues to be) – hopefully, you've been able to get some good documentary instruction from her...
Hi Chris, That's great Renee is your Executive Producer. I did get to know Renee well and learned a great deal from her. What a fabulous woman and gifted filmmaker/storyteller! Your film sounds really interesting, by the way. Sounds like an incredible journey making it too.
Hi everyone. I'm really pleased to have found this site and looking forward to connecting with other documentary filmmakers.
I'm fairly new to the industry, having been thrown in at the deep end on a project in Thailand about AIDS orphans. The children are from a small rural village and are preparing to take part in an opera in Bangkok. They are being taught by an American composer and musician and filming has been on-going for the last 18 months.
My biggest concern at the moment is to do with releases. I know there is plenty of information available on the subject but it isn't always very clear. I have full permission to film the children, but there are obviously countless other adults appearing throughout the film. I understand that everyone who is interviewed must sign a release. What I'm less sure about is other people who appear in the shot.
When I speak to Americans they always say that everyone should sign a release. It's obviously easy to say than to carry out. Europeans seems to be less strict and concentrate on those being interviewed. I know that Thailand is not a litigious society compared to America – is this a factor a distributor or broadcaster will take into account if people haven't signed?
We're all looking forward to the big performance in July and then we can start to edit.
Hope to get to know you guys!!
Welcome, Mike. I'm no lawyer but I'd mainly be concerned with people you've interviewed and those who are featured fairly prominently in a scene (which is usually a judgement call). If they speak at all I try to get a release. If they're just in the background I don't worry too much, though you might later have the occasional broadcaster who'll want a face blurred.
Hello mates,
My name is Matt, and I'm a young documentary filmmaker almost out of college and just looking to start working my way into the networks a little more. I've already worked in La on a couple of feature docs, and I've also created some short pieces over the past 2 years, so I have some experience. Basically just looking to see who's out there and who wants to be friendly enough to say hi, and maybe give me some advice . Always need advice.
Nice to meet all of you.
Greetings, Matt. Since you're now a member with access to the various discussion topics, try and be more specific about what advice you need and post in the appropriate area. But before you do, you should check out back posts or use the search engine. Chances are whatever question you have has been asked many times before.
My guess is you probably have all sorts of advice to give us, as well, so don't hesitate to jump in with it when you can.
Hi Regan, good to see you here. Don't make yourself so scarce when you're in HoHum County!
Yeah, I'd second Doug's advice about back posts. When I joined, I systematically read all the back posts in the topics most relevant to where we're at with our film. Time well spent. Not to say I don't still constantly ask redundant or obvious questions...
Hi everyone I´m Tati from São Paulo, Brazil...
Can´t say i am a documentarist yet...I consider myself an artist, because i have always worked in the fields of arts, graduated as an architect, worked as an architect, landscape designer, dj,jewellery designer, photography... but I believe the right field for me is documentary...
As i always been concerned with social issues, justice or the lack of it, my parents believed i was going to be lawyer, but as i don´t believe in law i would never be a lawyer...Maybe i tough architect could help this social issues but i realise that´s probably not the best way...
I believe documentaries can open people eyes for so many things, it´s a great communication instrument...
Last year i did a short course in documentaries and did my first doc, which came out pretty good, it´s about the distance between folk culture and academic culture...
I realise i can be really good and happy in this field, as i love meeting others cultures and different people point of view, i also love to do research,to know human psycology, antropology and travel...
Just couldn´t find people that are just like me that have this some motives so i´ve been working on my own just researching my next documentary topic which will be about Catholic Church-The Sacred or Profane, i would like to aproach abortion ...
I would love to hear from you guys...
I also plan to study documentary in Melbourne Australia or maybe New York, next year.
Hope to make some contacts in this site
Cheers :)
Hi Tatiana, very glad that you discovered us here. You might want to check out this place if you hope to study documentary in NY next year. I know the people involved in running the program and I think it's going to be awesome. And lots of our members are from NYC, too, so great opportunities to meet other working doc filmmakers. Hey, including me!
Hi Everyone,
So I'm new to D-word. I learned about the site from Christopher Wong (shout out for his amazing doc, Whatever It Takes). As if the internet isn't distracting enough I can tell that there will be many hours spent exploring here, which frankly I'm thrilled about.
A bit about myself. My name's Ben. I'm a student at Whitman College and will be graduating in May. This is quite exciting, but also a bit nerve racking. Very soon after graduation I will be moving to either LA or NY so people's thoughts of the doc scene in either city would be much appreciated and very much listened to (as well as any advice for young eager filmmakers).
As far as film goes, I recently made a short doc called TEAM TALIBAN. It will be playing in Tribeca at the end of april, so if you're in NY or know people who would be interested in seeing it here's the website. www.teamtalibanfilm.com
Well, I guess that's all for now. I hope to upload a photo to replace the default one, and I look forward to getting to know everyone and exploring d-word!
welcome ben! may you waste countless hours here along with the rest of us documentary fools.
(although you didn't win at AFI Dallas either, i can honestly say that TEAM TALIBAN was definitely the best doc short i saw there! and there were quite a few excellent ones playing...)
Hey Mikal!
I'll actually be up in Humboldt next week helping Scott with some Trees Foundation work. Not sure if we'll be staying in SoHum or Arcata, but I'll check in if I'm in your 'hood.
Welcome to The D-Word, Ben, and congrats on your success with the short. Can't speak for LA but between the weekly Stranger Than Fiction series and the monthly DocuClub screenings, I'd say NYC has a pretty thriving doc scene.
Hi, I'm John and I found out about this site from Snagfilms.com. I am 57 years old. Have teaching Special Education for 3+ years. Married 29 years. Two grown sons and 5 grandkids. Former US Navy SEAl and Vietnam veteran. I am struggling to learn how to play the bass guitar.Nice to meet you all.
I meant that I had been teaching for 30+ years on that last post.
Very glad you found and snagged us, John. Do you simply enjoy documentaries or are you trying to make one?
Hi everyone,
I'm really pleased to have found this site and I think I will get the chance for connecting with other documentary filmmakers.
I'm new to D-word. I learned about the site from Marjan Safinia, whome I met at Pangeaday International Film festival at Los Angalese in May 2008.
I'm really excited to connect with other documentary filmmakers and and look forward to learning from and connecting with you all!

By the way, no need to sign your name at the end of your posts. It's added automatically at the top of every post.
Hi, I'm James Billy Hill. Yes, that is Billy, not William. True Appalachian heritage in that name. I am a documentary film maker and aspiring screenwriter.
I went to Film School at The University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I have been working in the local film industry since 2006 in various capacities and doing side projects in the mean time.
Last year I finished a short documentary about an Autistic man in Davidson North Carolina, titled: "Richard"
I am currently working on a feature documentary film titled "Troubled Waters." It is about Arsenic poisoning in a small town in Northern Argentina. We have been in production on it for the last three years and with fingers crossed and funding to come we will have it ready for release by late September 2009.
I am still early in my career and hope to glean from the collective wisdom of everyone here and I am excited about this new resource.
I heard about it from a Q and A session with Gary Hustwit at Full Frame last weekend. Full Frame was wonderful.
Welcome, James. I suppose being a Billy Hill is better than being a Hill Billy. (Alright, I couldn't resist – bet you haven't heard that one before.) Glad you found out about us from Gary, we're happy to have you aboard.
Welcome Henry! Glad you joined!
Doug, John Chalus here. I have never made a documentary.I do enjoy watching them.
That's fine, John. Good to have an enthusiastic Enthusiast.
Hi everyone… I have been a member for a year and I apologize for not presenting myself before.
My name is Juan Leguizamón; I am a Film Editor.
I was born in Argentina but I lived seven years in Barcelona before moving to New York last year.
A week ago I finished my last work called "Dreaming Nicaragua", a feature length documentary directed by Marcelo Bukin about the life and dreams of five kids in Nicaragua. The film was shown last year at IDFA as a working progress.
In 2006 the film "Angel's Fire" won as Best Documentary Short Subject at the IDA Awards, also James Longley's "Iraq in Fragments" earned top honors for Feature Length Documentary! (I fell desolate I was working and I couldn't go… But hey!... that's life in the dark room).
If someone is interested in working with a reasonable man, obsessed by details and with good sense of humor fell free to contact me. More info at my web: http://www.juanleguizamon.com
I hope to be able to give something back to this great community.
Thanks to all.
I am the festival manager for the American Conservation Film Festival in Shepherdstown, WV.
Welcome Tatiana. Glad to have some more festival people here. I'm the Program Director of the Sebastopol Documentary Film Festival. When is your festival?
Hi I am Dharma I would like to submit a proposal to PBS very interesting subject, I shall be producing the 13 one-hour series. I looking for some one who has some experience in writing proposals or where can i find some one.
I planning to going into documentary production.
A nickname of mine when I was little was "backwards Hill Billy"
In reply to Doug Block's post on Mon 6 Apr 2009 :
I have been looking for a Bilengual editor for my current documentary project especially one from Argentina since the doc concerns Argentina. Post would begin in late July-August. Email me some more contact info, I would love to talk with you if you are available.
email: firstname.lastname@example.com
In reply to Juan Manuel Leguizamon's post on Tue 7 Apr 2009 21:48 UTC :
Bienvenido Juan, desde Montreal!
Welcome Juan, Tatiana and Dharma. Glad to have you all here.
Hi, my name is Beth and I live near the Smoky Mountains in the Knoxville, Tennessee area. Good to be connected with all of you doc film folks. I kind of got involved accidentally in doc films, when I visited Russia and got an idea for a story about a little town surrounded by a fence (a nuclear city with the last plutonium-producing reactor slated for closure since the end of the Cold War), but I have always loved docs. When I lived in Southern California, I got a global view of the entertainment industry, since I worked in film distribution, for which I am grateful. The internet has changed things so vastly, that now, as i consider options for distribution, I am seriously considering some kind of alternative way to get my film to a niche audience, rather than go a more traditional route, that aims more broadly. I have many questions, and look forward to hearing from some of you to discover your experiences with this wonderful art and craft we call doc film!
Welcome everybody. Beth, long time no talk. How's the film coming?
Hi Erica, good to hear from you! You remember I was going to screen a trailer with Docs In Progress last fall, but instead stayed in TN to tend to an elderly friend in a health crisis. In retrospect, I think it was not only a good choice for the sake of my friend, but for the film too. During that season last fall, after having failed to get an ITVS grant with a local PBS Lincs partner, I took the generous feedback from ITVS and applied it to the story. Coupled with some other creative and business input, I am looking at making several stories out of a complex one, to simplify and enhance both the personal and political layers. Thanks for asking! How are things with you?
Hi! My name is Sarah Sweet, I am currently a student of The Evergreen State College (Tacoma Campus) and concentrating on film for my degree. I will be graduating this June and pursuing my MFA in film at The Academy of Art University. I have done short films all through school... really since High school, then in a certification program through a technical college and now at Evergreen where I have really started focusing on documentary. I really enjoy editing, and this is where I feel I do my best work but I seem to be a one- woman crew quite often. Good to meet everyone!
Beth, Sarah, welcome to The D-Word, glad you found us. Sarah, highly recommend you look over some of our archived discussions. Especially the Editing discussion with Kate Amend. Beth, feel free to apply for full membership for working doc professionals.
Hello! I'm really pleased to have found out about the D-word (thanks Erica G.). I write, shoot and produce documentaries, and when pressed, will edit ;) My work covers a pretty wide range of subjects, from a Nigerian bank setting up shop in post-war Liberia, to a documentary about the largest off-court bocce tournament in the US. In short, I love to tell a good story, no matter the location or topic. You can see some of my work at http://www.watchstepfilms.com. I look forward to meeting other members!
Hola Andrés, como estas?
Hello Doug and James. Actually, hello to everybody!!
It's impressive how many people we are.
James, you been in the Northwest of Argentina, what do you thing? It's a country of extremes contrast, isn't it? It's very sad. To much corruption and ignorance among politicians… probably I'm not telling you anything new.
I'll send you an e-mail.
Welcome, Stephanie and Juan Manuel. You make a good point JM, has anyone else noticed how many new members we're getting these days? Nice to have such a great influx of talent. Happy procrastinating.
Hello all,
I just joined D-Word this week after my colleague and friend Erica Ginsberg told me how much she enjoys the discussions here. I live in Falls Church, VA, in the Washington, D.C., metro area. I'm a freelance scriptwriter, director and producer.
My current film is entitled Redemption Stone-The Life and Times of Tom Lewis (http://www.redemptionstone.net). A quick history of the project: the film was selected for the IFP Market in 2007; I locked the edit in January 2008; it screened at several festivals last year, won two Best Doc awards and then was nominated by IDA for Best Short Film (http://www.documentary.org/awards08); this year the film continues on the festival circuit.
I'm interested in all sorts of topics including creative challenges, the festival circuit and fundraising. I've been involved with film and video production a long time and I enjoy sharing what I've learned along the road with others as well as seeing other filmmakers succeed.
All the best
Tom Dz.
Hey All:
My name is Melissa Fowler and I am new to the list.
Happy to be here. I am based in NYC. I am a multimedia event producer,
an artist (film and photography) and aspiring musician (guitar and bass).
I produce an annual shorts showcase called Reel Venus Film Festival and
am launching a new lectures series called Double Visions.
looking forward to being more active on the list. :-)
warm regards,
Melissa Fowler
Phew, like I said...
Welcome, Tom and Melissa. No need for you to sign your names to posts, they're done automatically on top of each. And so you know, Melissa, The D-Word isn't a list, which implies a listserve where you're emailed a collection of posts. It's an online discussion forum where you log in online to get to the various posts. Easy to get confused, I know.
Hi Doug:
I apologize for referring to the D-Word as a list.
It's just habit from being involved in lots of different
online activity (lsits and communities) in various formats.
thanks for the clarification.
all in all, I am glad to be joining the online discussion
forum. Grateful to have discovered it. :-)
Just think of us as your home even when you're not away from home ;-) Anyway, glad you found us, Melissa. Hope you'll leap right into the discussions.
Hi All
My name is Michael Angus. Most know me as Mick. I heard about this site at the "State of the Docs" panel discussion during the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. Gary Hustwit called for a show of hands from the audience as to who were members and I hadn't heard of D-Word.
That's all changed now! Nice to be in touch with a community of other doco makers.
I have made three films. The Fight Game, Ooldea and SALT. SALT was screening at Full Frame (which was a great festival I thought).
Thanks for the heads up Gary!
Hello, I'm Jennifer Paz, my company is Jen Paz Films. I produce and direct documentaries. My film "Popular!", a music documentary, was shot in Cuba and Japan. It premiered in Shibuya, Tokyo and in the US at the Santa Barbara International Festival in 2007. My company does consulting for production companies planning to film in Cuba. Also we provide information about sync rights for Cuban music. I'm experienced with live audio and mult-camera shoots for performance.
Looking forward to the discussions here!
-JP firstname.lastname@example.com
Welcome to all new D-Worders, come in and make yourself at home
No need to add your email, Jennifer, it's in every profile – click the name or photo
Thank-you John. I see now how the profiles work. I just added my phone number. Privacy is overrated.
Jennifer, Mick, great to have you here.
HI!! I'm Sarah!!
I've been floating back and forth between New York and Paris for the better part of the past year, working on a couple of independent documentary film projects while also trying to gain experience in other areas of the film industry at the same time.
I've recently wrapped up a new pitching program I ran for The European Independent Film Festival, in Paris, and am about to head back to New York to finish shooting for one of my documentaries.
I just joined the D-Word and am certainly very eager to read up on the discussions and get involved... And to meet other individuals making and working on documentary films. If you're in New York, or Paris, let me know?!? And if you're elsewhere, let me know anyway? I'm sure we can find something to talk about...
All my best!
Well, I'm in New York, and good to have you aboard, Sarah. Just do what we encourage everyone to do and jump right into the discussions. As you just did, in fact.
Just joined up to read the complete "The Art of Shooting Documentary" discussion with virtuoso doc cinematographer/director Don Lenzer, which is highly recommended to all!
In addition to producing/shooting docs (clips on YouTube, MyHero.com, MediaBurn.org), I am now Special Professor in the new MFA Documentary Program at Hofstra University's School of Communication.
Don Lenzer is visiting my Cinéma Vérité Lab course soon, so the posted discussion is very helpful prep. Thanks for this site.
Our students' website Doc-Masters, including interviews with Donn Pennebaker, Chris Hegedus, Morgan Spurlock and others will be launched soon. I'll let you all know when it's up.
Looking forward ~ Skip
Check out my DVD "Nam June Paik: Lessons from the Video Master" about the #1 video artist.
Skip, welcome and I really hope you'll sign up for full membership and participate here. There are a lot more discussion topics that you can't see until you become a Member (as opposed to Enthusiast).
For those who don't recognize the name, Skip is legendary – one of our foremost video pioneers. Welcome to The D-Word.

Like Michael Angus... I came to know about D-Word at Full Frame wich I also thought It was I great festival!
ciao Michael and ciao all D-World people!
Ciao, Raffaele, and a warm welcome to The D-Word. We love that word of mouth has brought so many great filmmakers here recently via Full Frame. Thanks to Gary and a number of others for the mention there.
Hi, Raffaele – I really liked your film, Hair India. Very fantastic work.
Hi Everyone!
My name's Kyle. I'm just finishing a rough cut and teaser for a documentary I've been working on for 2+ years about a hobo legend who never worked a day in his life. I've produced and directed a number of shorts for different outlets in the past and worked as an associate producer on the documentary film "You Think You Really Know Me" about musician Gary Wilson.
I'm glad to meet you all. I've heard a lot of good things about this site from colleagues! Thanks for having me.
Looking forward,
Hello Raffaele and Kyle,
I must warn you as a relatively new D-Worder myself....this place is Extremely Addictive. You'll love it.
Yup, we're kind of like virtual heroin. Welcome and watch your veins.
Hey guys!
My name is Kirsten and I'm a fairly new documentary filmmaker but I'm very eager to learn as much as I can. I'm currently in post production on a documentary about a Paralympic swimmer with cerebral palsy. I'm also in pre production for a documentary I'm co-directing on self-harm.
I can't wait to become addicted to this site. Virtual heroin sounds awesome.
Welcome, Kirsten. The real addicts are those who qualify for full membership – and it sounds like you do. We await you with open needles.
Golly gee. For some reason that does not sound so fantastic.
Well, we don't share them.
I think I better hit the Methadone.... I mean get back to actually making my film. My brain is overloaded with good advice and inspiration. Must ... get ... back ... to ... film....
In reply to Kyle McKeveny's post on Mon 13 Apr 2009 20:41 UTC :
Welcome Raffaele and Kyle and Regan and Gregory!
Thanks Nick! I've quickly gotten hooked on this D-Word drug, but I'm with Graeme in needing to remember to get back to actually finishing my film – so I can put all this good advice and inspiration to good use! =)
Hi Raffaele and Kyle. Nice to see you here.
Hey Raffaele, did you submit you film to Brisbane Festival? I didn't get to see it at Full Frame unfortunately.
Hello Doug & all members. Im Mohammad Aasim Saleem from Karachi, Pakistan. Currently Im employed with a leading news/current affairs channel in my country. I have over nine years of experience in producing, directing, scripting and etc. having produced documentaries, live transmissions etc. etc.
Also gained experience in developing feasibility reports for channels and now, Im working on expanding my horizon. D-Word should certainly be a wonderful experience to come across and intereact with professionals from varying backgrounds. Looking forward.
Hello everyone !
I'm an independent documentary filmmaker, producer, writer and editor (and a few other things). My first language is French. My latest film "L'encerclement – La démocratie dans les rets du néoolibéralisme" ("Encirclement – Neo-Liberalism Ensnares Democracy") has had it's world premiere at Rencontres internationales du documentaire de Montréal (RIDM) in 2008 and it's international premiere in this year's Berlinale Forum section. It was released theatrically in Montréal (Québec, Canada) last February and it's currently touring a few festivals: BAFICI, Visions du réel, IndieLisboa, Documenta Madrid, Hot Docs, Viennale, Oslo International Film Festival, Ghent Film Festival, etc. I've been awarded a M. Joan Chalmers Award (Best Canadian documentary) for my first film "Trop c'est assez" ("Too Much Is Enough") and a Pierre and Yolande Perrault Award (Best emerging documentary filmmaker) at this year's Rendez-vous du cinéma québécois for "Encirclement".
I've just found out about D-Word – which surely looks like a nice place to meet doc people and exchange – through Hot Docs.
Welcome Mohammad and Richard. Always a pleasure to have diverse international perspectives.
You should both consider applying for full membership, which will give you access to all the professional topics. It's free, but not automatic.
Hello and a warm welcome to you both, Mohammad and Richard. Mohammad, as Marj suggests (and Richard has already done), do apply for full membership. You'll get to take part in many more discussion topics.
Hello, documentary filmmakers. I'm Churchill Roberts, Co-director of the Documentary Institute at the University of Florida. In September, the Independent Magazine listed the Documentary Institute as one of the 10 best documentary programs in the country. But now, the dean of my college wants to eliminate it. Please help by signing the petition below. IDA distributed this information yesterday. Thanks for your help. Let me know if you have any questions. Churchill email@example.com

As some of you might be aware, the College of Journalism and Communications at the University of Florida is planning to terminate The Documentary Institute, a highly respected graduate program that has helped launch hundreds of careers in the documentary field. In an era where the fields of journalism and communications are in a state of flux at best and turmoil at worst, the documentary form is a thriving medium for exploring contemporary issues. A documentary training program such as The Documentary Institute is vital to the nonfiction media-making community.
Please show your support for The Documentary Institute. Let the University of Florida know where you stand by signing this petition:

Hey folks! Checking myself in here. I'm not exactly making a documentary but I will need all the help I can get and this looks like a great way to get connected to the people in the know. I look forward to hearing from you all!
Welcome Churchill and Andrew!
Hello everyone! My name is Sara, I am an undergraduate student in California. I have done some short film pieces and audio pieces before in the past, and now I'm working on my first feature film. I look forward to "meeting" each of you!
Great to see you here, Sara.
Hello to all. I've actually been a member of this forum for a number of years, although I've never posted (feels like I'm taking a very big step right now..) I do want to congratulate you on creating such a wonderful space – I find it an incredibly useful resource for all things technical, but most importantly motivational. Doc filmmaking gets a bit lonely at times and it's nice to know there's a whole lot of people out there who've been down that road..
I've been working on a project called Cinema Komunisto for a couple of years now (it's been a long and interrupted development and shooting process), and have finally reached the editing stage, so I've re-located temporarily to Los Angeles for the edit. Would love to meet fellow documentary filmmakers in a town that doesn't seem to have much time for that world...
Hi I'm Jeremy, I'm embarking a new project that might interest some of you – it's called Docummunity and is trying to be the first feature length documentary that's been created entirely from user generated content.
We're launching the web site in 6 weeks and are trying to get content that centers around the theme of money – for more information got to www.docummunity.com or email me on email@example.com
Welcome Serbia (USA) and Australia!
Welcome, Jeremy. Sounds like a great project, definitely of interest to us since we do collaborative projects ourselves from time to time.
And Mila, great to have you come out from the shadows and into the sunshine and light, at last. Not so terrifying after all, is it?
mila, there's a bunch of us D-Worders here in L.A., so we'll have to arrange a get-together this summer. would love to hear more about your project.
Hey Everyone,
I'm so excited I found this place. It looks like a wonderful community. I'm a documentary filmmaker and I live in LA. My first feature just won the Jury Award for Best Documentary at Japan Film Festival last week. It's a documentary on Japanese whaling: http://www.kujirathemovie.com .
I'm very excited to start reading more posts.
congrats on the award, danny! and welcome to the D-Word... make sure that you apply for full membership (it's free) so that you will be eligible to see all the discussion topics on this site.
Welcome, Danny. And, yes, do apply. Here's how ...
Tell us a bit more about yourself, Danny. How did you come to make KUJIRA?
Hey doc friends,
I'm a documentary film editor based in Cologne, Germany.
Currently I edit my first feature length documentary "Tribes of Cologne" which is an ethnographic film about people who dress and live like Huns and Mongolians in Cologne (http://www.58filme.de/projekte/projekt_13.html). (Sorry, the site is in German only)
Having studied documentary film in Italy and having worked in Denmark I very much appreciate getting in contact with you from allover the world.
Welcome, Julia. You'll want to sign up for full membership as well.
Hey Julia, this project sounds hilarious. I live in Munich (theoretically) but have grown into a big fan of the Cologne carnival. Is there any overlap between the Tribes of Cologne and the carnival?
Please do become a full Member of The D-Word. "It's free but it's not automatic."
(And give my regards to Jutta Krug.)
Thank you!
Actually the Tribes of Cologne do have their origin in the Cologne carnival, they started up as carnival associations in the 50s. They also hold summer camps in parks which for them is even more important than carnival.
Hey John, Great to meet you. I came to make KUJIRA because I thought the whaling controversy was very complex and interesting but had only seen very one-sided presentations of it. I thought it'd be interesting to go into it with no bias and see what people had to say.
Hey Doug– looking forward to your appearing at Making Media in June...in the meantime, just so you know, I am currently producing a film about oil, the classic film LOUISIANA STORY and my family called OIL IN THE FAMILY. You can see the trailer here: http://oilfilms.com
Hey D-Word World,
I am Television and Film student/graduate looking to create a documentary from scratch in the next few months. I am open to any suggestions on how to start the research process. Got a story cooking and can't wait to get it out on film. If anyone wants a mentee I am looking for a mentor.
Take Care,
Hi D-Word friends,
I'm an independent documentary producer, have been working for my own company Ambrica Productions for nearly 25 years making films for PBS, and have helped raise over $7 million. Now in this down economy I'm hiring myself out for development work. If anyone needs help developing concepts, doing pre-interviews or interviews, writing proposals, working with advisors, budgeting and planning films, etc, I'd love to hear from you! I'm also looking forward to reading what others are doing.
Shyla and Kathryn, welcome to The D-Word!
Thanks Ben! Now to figure out how to make the most of this community.
It's simple, Kathryn. You basically give up making docs and read back posts for the next few years. Meanwhile, welcome to both you and Shyla.
Jon, looking forward to the Making Media Conference, too. Hope to see you there.
Hi D word colleagues!
I am Luciano, documentary filmmaker based in LA. I am also a cinematographer, my latest film, RiseUp, is having it's north american premiere this weekend at HotDocs, exciting! I am glad to join in and hope to be having great discussions here in the near future. If you like Reggae music, then you'll love RiseUp, you can check it out at www.riseupmovie.com
All the best!

Nuclear Security:
DOE Needs to Fully Address Issues Affecting Protective Forces' Personnel Systems
GAO-10-485T: Published: Mar 3, 2010. Publicly Released: Mar 3, 2010.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6870
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks raised concerns about the security of Department of Energy (DOE) sites with weapons-grade nuclear material, known as Category I special nuclear material (SNM). To better protect these sites against attacks, DOE has sought to transform its protective forces protecting SNM into a Tactical Response Force (TRF) with training and capabilities similar to the U.S. military. This testimony is based on prior work and has been updated with additional information provided by protective forces' union officials. In a prior GAO report, Nuclear Security: DOE Needs to Address Protective Forces' Personnel System Issues (GAO-10-275), GAO (1) analyzed information on the management, organization, staffing, training, and compensation of protective forces at DOE sites with Category I SNM; (2) examined the implementation of TRF; and (3) assessed DOE's two options to more uniformly manage protective forces; and (4) reported on DOE's progress in addressing protective force issues. DOE generally agreed with the recommendations in GAO's prior report that called for the agency to fully assess and implement, where feasible, measures identified by DOE's 2009 protective forces study group to enhance protective forces' career longevity and retirement options.
Over 2,300 contractor protective forces provide armed security for DOE and the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) at six sites that have long-term missions to store and process Category I SNM. DOE protective forces at each of these sites are covered under separate contracts and collective bargaining agreements between contractors and protective force unions. As a result, the management, organization, staffing, training and compensation--in terms of pay and benefits--of protective forces vary. Protective force contractors, unions, and DOE security officials are concerned that the implementation of TRF's more rigorous requirements and the current protective forces' personnel systems threaten the ability of protective forces--especially older members--to continue their careers until retirement age. These concerns, heightened by broader DOE efforts to manage postretirement and pension liabilities for its contractors that might have a negative impact on retirement eligibility and benefits for protective forces, contributed to a 44-day protective force strike at an important NNSA site in 2007. According to protective force union officials, the issues surrounding TRF implementation and retirement benefits are still unresolved and could lead to strikes at three sites with large numbers of protective forces when their collective bargaining agreements expire in 2012. Efforts to more uniformly manage protective forces have focused on either reforming the current contracting approach or creating a federal protective force (federalization). Either approach might provide for managing protective forces more uniformly and could result in effective security if well-managed. However, if protective forces were to be federalized under existing law, the current forces probably would not be eligible for enhanced retirement benefits and might face a loss of pay or even their jobs. Although DOE rejected federalization as an option in 2009, it recognized that the current contracting approach could be improved by greater standardization and by addressing personnel system issues. As a result, NNSA began a standardization initiative to centralize procurement of equipment, uniforms, and weapons to achieve cost savings. Under a separate initiative, a DOE study group developed a number of recommendations to enhance protective forces' career longevity and retirement options, but DOE has made limited progress to date in implementing these recommendations.

Stooges Brass Band
The Stooges Brass Band has earned their rank as one of the elite brass bands in New Orleans. The band consistently provides a welcome blast of true New Orleans spirit engaging audiences with their innovative blend of traditional New Orleans brass sounds, contemporary jazz and hip-hop beats.
Emerging onto the scene in 1996, the Stooges Brass Band has gained notoriety as a full-blown musical party immersing the crowd in a cut-loose vibe that is contemporary yet deeply rooted in the culturally rich musical legacy of New Orleans. The band has shared the stage with: Ozomatli, Black Star (Mos Def & Talib Kweli), Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears, Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, Shemekia Copeland, Pedrito Martinez Group, Galactic, Brownout, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Ave, Big Sam's Funky Nation, The Funky Meters, and Jessica Simpson, among others.
The band is undeniably one of the hardest working bands out of New Orleans, and their dedication to their craft has made an impact. The Stooges Brass Band victoriously battled for the title of "Red Bull Street Kings: Best Brass Band" (the subject of the documentary Brass Bands of New Orleans: Red Bull Street Kings). Along with this auspicious title, the band won a recording and mentorship session at the Red Bull Studios in California. You can watch the results of this project here: The Red Bull Studio Sessions. The band also received the award for "Best Contemporary Brass Band 2011" at the Big Easy Music Awards.
The Stooges Brass Band continues to tour performing at venues throughout the country and appearing at famed festivals such as New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Bonnaroo, South by Southwest, Utah Arts Festival, Discover Jazz, American Folk Festival, High Sierra Music Festival, , Great American Brass Band Festival, and more.
The Stooges Brass Band has also answered the call to serve as cultural ambassadors and were employed by the US Embassy to tour, Pakistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Other international appearances include the Edinburgh Jazz Festival, the Durham Brass Festival in the UK and Nuits D'Afrique, Tremblant Blues Festival in Canada.
Whether they're second-lining in the back streets of the Crescent City, or performing their spirited stage show, the Stooges Brass Band delivers an authentic New Orleans celebration.
Brass-A-Holics have introduced the genre of "Go-Go Brass Funk" to the time honored traditions, culture and music that have come out of the great city of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Bandleader and renowned Trombonist, Winston Turner, an alumni of the traditional Pinstripes Brass Band, and the contemporary Soul Rebels Brass Band, conceived the "Go-Go Brass Funk" genre with the goal of merging the unrivaled New Orleans brass sound with Washington DC's Go-Go groove and topping off his instrumental gumbo with keys and strings. Although there are differences in culture, style, and swagger within this band, the members of the Brass-A-Holics collectively bring to you a unified and unique sound that is unparalleled to anything you have ever heard. Where else can you hear Chuck Brown, Miles Davis, Nirvana, John Coltrane, Wham, Cyndi Lauper, Kanye West, and Louis Armstrong all in one set? Be warned that this sound is a powerful substance; both addictive and intoxicating.

And so we bid a not-so-fond farewell to the bow of another large unwieldy year as it sinks slowly over the horizon wobbling unsteadily towards the graveyard of memory. And cheers erupt from we folks on shore waving the double-handed "L for loser" sign above our heads. "So long. See ya. Don't let the door slam you in the butt on the way out. And if you got any brothers or sisters, don't give them this address."

Form MediaOcean, a rival to Google for title of "marketing dashboard."
Donovan Data Systems (DDS) and MediaBank will merge to form MediaOcean, a provider of creative workflow and campaign management tools for agencies.
The deal, which reportedly values the combined company at $1.5 billion, aims to establish a unified software suite that can support agencies' ever more integrated digital and traditional buying activities while also serving increasingly fragmented media plans and convoluted reporting requirements.
The companies have 800 employees, which will be merged into single offices in markets where they currently overlap. Together they process more than $100 billion in annual ad spend, according to a spokesperson.
MediaOcean also hopes to challenge the rising influence of Google's ad management dashboard - with products like DoubleClick for Advertisers, Google Ad Exchange, Invite Media, Teracent, and AdWords.
New York-based DDS is by far the older of the two companies, having been founded in 1967. Its tools encompass print and broadcast media buying, timesheet tracking, invoicing, creative workflow management, and some interactive capabilities. Its digital campaign system was integrated with DoubleClick several years ago.
Meanwhile MediaBank, headquartered in Chicago, offers cross-media order management, tracking and reporting, and interactive campaign tools, among other products. Earlier this year, it bought online search and display ad platform AdBuyer for an undisclosed sum.
MediaBank CEO Bill Wise will be chief executive of MediaOcean. Wise is a digital ad veteran who was previously president of media at Yahoo's Right Exchange and CEO of search-centric agency Did-it. DDS founder Michael Donovan will serve as executive chairman of MediaOcean.
In a statement, the companies said they are working on an open source "MediaOcean OS Project" that will let agencies, media sellers, and others integrate with each other and with MediaOcean, using APIs and open source software. They also noted repeatedly that the company will be "independent" and "neutral," a not-too-subtle jab at Google and others that have attempted to offer both the systems for selling media and the media itself.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
This task is a piece of cake
Judging dessert a delicious job
They teach you a lot of important stuff in journalism school.
For example, you learn how to conduct yourself when reporting on explosive courtroom proceedings, how to maintain your professional integrity when interacting with political and business powerbrokers, not to mention the proper time and place to use the much-maligned semicolon.
But -- and brace yourself for a huge journalistic surprise -- they don't teach you anything about how to judge cake-decorating competitions. As hard as this is to believe, when it comes to cake, you are totally on your own.
Which is why I was forced to fall back on my natural instincts last week when the nice folks from the Seven Oaks General Hospital Foundation invited me to attend their swanky One Sweet Affair fundraising gala to help judge a showdown among the city's top pastry chefs to see who could create the most amazing cake.
I know what you are thinking here. You are thinking: "Doug, what qualifies you, an overweight, middle-aged newspaper columnist, to judge a high-level battle between the city's baking elite?"
Well, perhaps you will find it comforting to know I have had a longstanding love affair with cake. Ditto pies, cookies and most of your major dessert-related items, with the possible exception of flan.
I was supremely confident in my ability to handle this difficult assignment, but I was not quite as sure about the rest of the judging panel. So I confronted fellow judge Marcy Markusa from CBC's Information Radio and demanded she reveal her cake credentials.
Marcy confessed she has had a stormy and passionate romance with cake for many years. "In January, I broke up with cake on the air," she confided as we clutched our forks. "We have a tumultuous relationship. In my heart of hearts, cake is the love of my life, next to my husband, although cake is more tasty. If anything, I'm overqualified to judge cake."
The first thing we judges did was stand around and ogle the four cakes -- a giant caramel apple, a five-tiered tower covered in chocolate leaves, a birthday dress surrounded by presents, and a doll holding a box of cookies while perched on a rotating music-box-style base -- and make frowny faces to convey we were taking our jobs seriously.
To impress bystanders, we exchanged professional cake-judging remarks such as: "Look, here's a cake." Or: "OK, here's another cake." Then we had to sit down and force ourselves to consume slices of cake the size of Yorkshire terriers while dishing up even more incisive judging remarks, such as: "Yum!" And: "Could someone bring us a glass of milk because we have a lot of (bad word) cake to eat here?"
In the end, after arguing for several minutes behind a closed curtain, we courageously awarded the blue ribbon to the 50-pound caramel apple cake created by the amazing Pam Kirtpatrick from Cake-ology.
Pam told me her Halloween-inspired cake, which was later auctioned for about $700, took about 16 hours to decorate with scary skulls and creepy spiders. "It's been four years I've been entering this and it's the first year I've won," Pam chirped. "I'm super-excited and a little bit surprised."
When I pressed Pam to reveal the most popular cake in Winnipeg, she hesitated, then spilled the beans: "Red velvet cake with cream cheese icing. We've sold 26,000 red velvet cupcakes this year."
I hate to brag, but that's the kind of vital pastry fact that you, the consumer, have a right to know.
Fortunately for you, I am not afraid of asking the tough questions. It's not easy being a big-shot journalist, even when it's a piece of cake.

Re: The Tadeja Majeric making her way to the top thread!
My god her moonballs were landing inside the Service Line
She had many opportunities at Deuce and Game Point and she didn't take them so basically gave Cagla the set
As the commentator says, if she is injured, why is she standing so far back and pushing so much? She wasn't doing that until 4*-3 but then she just pushed the 3 games away
Anyway, into the 2nd Set, she hit 3 return winners in a row and then just missed a Forehand so 15-40
And she breaks with a good return
I just don't get why she doesn't do that more...
Wonderful BHDTL from Tads and now 15-15 and now 30-15
But Double Fault and 30-30
The thing is, when she plays aggressively she doesn't even miss that much and she is doing stuff like moving forward and just taking the ball a bit earlier and she is winning so much more
I am surprised why she didn't work that out earlier
2-0 now

Small craft issues
After having had "Boldly They Rode" completely ruined for me (partially my fault), I had to post to vent/ask for solutions on this issue.
First, after doing small craft missions and changing back to my starship, I noticed the game/UI still thinks I'm in my small craft and when hovering over equipment the tooltip gives stats for small craft rather than my starships. The only way I've found to fix the issue, is to dismiss the small craft -- going back to a starbase and changing craft via typical means just doesn't seem to work. Is there a workaround for this?
Second, and this is by far the more irritating one (yet one with the most obvious, albeit time-consuming, fix), is that when changing ships everything but captain powers is reassigned a location on my hotbars. Considering having to juggle captain powers, a dozen boff powers, subsystem targeting, and hangar/fighter controls, that's incredibly annoying and takes 5-10 minutes of my time to fix. Especially for the fact I have to pull 6-8 weapons (that are all on autofire anyhow), and crap that doesn't even need a hotkey (like my trade vessel summon), off the hotbars to free up room for boff powers and such. Is there any way whatsoever to not have to waste time doing this after changing vessels?

This JEMS supplement on Intrathoracic Pressure Regulation (IPR) presents current perspectives and data from EMS medical directors and researchers on this non-invasive therapy that improves circulation in cardiac arrest and shock states from a variety of etiologies. Changes in intrathoracic pressure, subtle and invisible to prehospital providers, dramatically affect coronary and cerebral blood flow. Sponsored by Advanced Circulatory.
EMS State of the Science 2014
This special supplement to JEMS, prepared in cooperation with the U.S. Metropolitan Municipalities EMS Medical Directors Consortium (aka, the "Eagles" Coalition), highlights some of the most important scientific advancements reported at the 2014 Gathering of Eagles Conference held in Dallas, Texas. It takes an in-depth look at significant research, advances in resuscitation practices, and the corresponding scientific data, presented at the 2014 conference. Each is the result of innovative and cutting edge processes, protocols and equipment implemented in many of the U.S. metropolitan municipalities. The supplement is sponsored by Advanced Circulatory, American Heart Assocation, American Red Cross, Laerdal, Physio-Control Inc, and ZOLL.
Prehospital Care Research Forum Abstracts
The Prehospital Care Research Forum at UCLA believes that it's the responsibility of emergency medical professionals worldwide to develop a body of evidence that examines prehospital emergency care. Our mission is to assist, recognize and disseminate prehospital care research conducted at all provider levels.
When Time Matters Most
High-profile and high-fatality active shooter events have put substantial pressure on EMS and other public safety agencies to respond and mitigate threats rapidly, quickly treating injured responders and victims as close to their point of injury as possible. This special editorial supplement presents not just the results and recommendations of the Hartford Consensus, but also the latest data and techniques on how to care for yourself, your co-workers and victimes of violent and fast moving incidents.
