On Friday at Silverdocs, I joined IDA Executive Director Sandra Ruch and filmmakers Julie Goldman and Marco Williams in a discussion over the recent changes to the Oscar qualification rules for documentary features. My previous reporting and reflection on the topic can be found here.
My fellow doc blogger Joel Heller was kind enough to record the panel and host it on his site. You can listen to the nearly one hour panel here and I will follow up with more about the discussion in a coming post. Thanks to Joel for making this a reality.
Further, since audience members were encouraged to contact folks at the Academy with questions, here are some of the more important contacts for questions related to the Oscar doc rules:
