Tonight - Weds. April 29th - on The Double Down Film Show

Tonight on a special EXPANDED edition of The Double Down Film Show we'll be sharing a private webinar originally given for Turn Here Productions that gives some key tips and tricks to documentary and corporate production.

• How do you get good documentary "performances" from "real people"?
• What can you do in low light situations?
• What are some of the most helpful tools for doc filmmakers?
• What's a "ghetto light kit"?

The answers to these questions (and much more) will be revealed tonight in a special hour and a half episode as show co-host, Anthony Q. Artis, will expand on the info in his best-selling book, The Shut Up and Shoot Documentary Guide.

Join in the chat room to have your doc production questions answered live. Call in questions after the webinar- time permitting.
