    Mark has totally changed the first module of AOD (the single course that just used to be called Art of Documentary). Even though we have the original version archived, the new version is quite different so as to be a totally new course. This new thread is to keep the versions distinct from each other.

    If you're looking for the old version of this course, you can find it here: https://p-v.club/threads/mark-bone-the-art-of-documentary.31693/

    Course site: https://theartofdocumentary.com/courses/documentary-foundations

    [​IMG]

    A step-by-step guide to finishing a film. From finding a story to getting into film festivals.
    Our Documentary Foundations, or Module 1, is the recommended starting point for filmmakers looking to create or improve their documentaries. This course consists of nearly 70 videos that cover the entire process of creating compelling documentaries, branded content films, or corporate videos. From finding a story to post-production and releasing your film, this course encompasses all aspects of filmmaking. Module 1 Foundations is the result of over 40 years of collective experience in filmmaking, emphasizing that passion and creativity are the most important elements in creating impactful films.

    You need to extract all the files into a folder, and then extract them through the first compressed file

    The 7z files all need to be in the same folder before extracting. If you're already doing that, you may need to update your 7zip application - they released a new version recently, so it may be that the version I'm using to archive the files is newer than the version you're using.
