What students have to say:

“CDS is a mecca for anyone wanting to learn about the art and craft of documentary filmmaking. As a physician, I needed a program that could adapt to my schedule. In addition to being one of the top documentary schools internationally, CDS offers an extremely flexible program, allowing students to take classes at night and on weekends in specific areas of the student’s interests. At the completion of the program, I had crafted a documentary short that was screened at the certificate ceremony. I learned the skills needed to make a film with audience impact. Every class and every instructor were top notch. The Institute fosters a community that promotes learning and inspires the budding documentarian. I’ve met a score of friends and network contacts for life. New classes are added all the time, and I’ll continue to take classes at CDS following my graduation from this very well-managed program.”
