Making It Up: The Fiction of Documentary Storytelling with Jude Ho

Drawing on her own journey to learn the craft of directing, in this seminar producer/director and previous WFTV mentee, Jude Ho, will explore how we can use techniques from drama storytelling to create emotionally compelling non-fiction narratives.

Jude will be sharing the tools to help you prep, shoot and edit together a compelling and authentic documentary.

This session is for aspiring and emerging directors as well as experienced filmmakers in search of a fresh perspective.

Speaker

Jude Ho is an RTS award-winning and double Grierson nominated producer/director with a reputation for creative flair and a light comic touch.
