Docs In Progress® is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to empowering independent documentary filmmakers and educating the public about documentary as an art form. We do this through a variety of programs and services, including work-in-progress screenings, training classes, professional development workshops and webinars, private consultations, online resources and a blog.

 

We help experienced and emerging documentary filmmakers make better films by giving them the tools to foster and improve their skills at all stages of the filmmaking process. Whether you need help turning an idea into a proposal, a proposal into funding, raw footage into a cohesive story, or a rough cut into a masterpiece, Docs In Progress can help.

“There are only two things that documentary filmmakers really want: the first is to have the opportunity to exhibit their work and the second is for their creative process to be discussed in a thoughtful and provocative way with their peers. Docs In Progress has consistently given of both of these gifts to local filmmakers -- making the organization essential to the Washington DC documentary community.”
