5 Simple Doc Mistakes

When making a documentary, there are a few different things that the filmmaker should keep in mind. One of the most important things to remember is to choose a worthy subject. If you chose a topic that you personally don't enjoy, then it'll be harder for you to put the project together. Another thing to keep in mind is to use good music. If your documentary consists of mainly empty space with interviews, then the viewer is mainly listening to the music that you choose. Lastly, its very important to have a core question in your documentary. Without a core question, it'll be harder for the viewer to understand everything about your doc. If you don't follow these rules, then it'l be harder for you to make the documentary and even harder for people to watch it.
