A two-day series of masterclasses entitled “DOC NOMADS ACADEMY” was held in Budapest. Internationally renowned directors, producers and researchers shared their experience and practice in talks and debates, and attended workshops on the topic. This year the focus was on non-fiction transmedia storytelling.

The “Brave New Narratives” masterclass, led by Sara, aimed to explore how documentary filmmakers can use new formats of mass media and narrative to activate difference and provoke audience interaction. The session drew on participants’ skills and experience in the construction of immersive narratives, audience development and the use of new media. Participants were involved in the process of writing immersive scripts, participatory creation, distribution and funding of such works.
