DOK Events
Documentary films need platforms where they can be thought about, negotiated, pushed and finally shown to a broad public. Perhaps in the future even more beyond the already established paths.
VIVE LA DOK conceives and manages events & conferences around documentary film; develops & directs industry formats; curates film series; conceives and moderates panels and thus initiates encounters, exchange and synergies within the industry.
In doing so, VIVE LA DOK builds on Eva Rink's many years of experience in the industry and an established network within the national and international documentary film industry.
Documentary Campus Industry Session 2022
Conception and Moderation
Audience Design & New Perspectives
The rapidly changing documentary industry has influenced our strategies and means of distribution. We have to redefine our roles as authors, producers, distributors and broadcasters. We have to be more flexible. And more than ever: We have to know our audiences.
How can documentaries better connect to their audiences to gain visibility and generate impact? The session will focus on new opportunities in reaching audiences and give insights into new options for distribution on multiple platforms.
