Docs In Progress is elated to announce our 2020 Fellows. Now in its eighth year, the Docs In Progress Fellowship provides selected filmmakers from across the Washington DC/Maryland/Virginia area monthly facilitated meetings where they come together to share progress with their projects and receive feedback and advice on issues related to the documentary landscape, work/life balance, and the creative process. 

Six projects originally presented at Peer Pitch programs around the country have been selected to return to Washington DC for an industry pitch. The pitch will take place Friday October 11 as part of the Double Exposure Investigative Film Festival.

Want to get close to your documentary subjects? Dispense with all the bells and whistles. This the focus of a new book from filmmaker Rustin Thompson. We asked him to give us the highlights.

Meet our 2019 Docs In Progress Fellows. We head out on the road with Peer Pitch. Docs In The City focus on environmental documentaries. Plus news from alums, upcoming funding deadlines, hot reads, and more...

This is the week to apply for our Fellowship, submit a film for Docs In The City, our February Roundtable, or our April Work-in-Progress Screening, and our Fiscal Sponsorship deadline is just around the corner.
