Documentary Roundtable: Trailer Night
Because of COVID 19, these events will be delivered via Zoom.
Submit Your Trailer for Feedback at a Roundtable
Almost every month, Docs In Progress and Women in Film and Video-DC co-host the Documentary Roundtable. Usually held on the second Monday of every month (except when holidays conflict), these free meetings switch between Washington DC and Silver Spring. The Washington DC meetings organized by WIFV are focused on receiving expert advice on topics related to documentary filmmaking while the Silver Spring meetings organized by Docs In Progress are focused on peer feedback, often a presentation and review of a director's 'Trailer'.
Trailer Night has gone virtual during Covid times and is free to the public.
