Product Overview
Dugald Williamson examines the combination of television factors and the problem they pose for the serious social documentary: ' Now that television is the primary medium for distributing documentary, there is growing debate about the challenge of engaging with complex social and political realities through documentary practice.' Williamson examines the institutional bases for documentary developments, the relations of form and context, the negotiations of the social and institutional conditions of projects and documentary authorship, and the negotiation of form through research and considerations of audience.
