You are invited to take a look at the brand new e-book from Duke University's Center for Documentary Studies: Visual Storytelling: The Digital Video Documentary. The e-book is free and on a Creative Commons "share-alike" license. It's a fun do-it-yourself guide to making watchable short documentaries using a consumer camcorder, digital SLR camera, or cell phone. Visual Storytelling is based on my 12 years of teaching people who want to make a documentary -- have the access to their subject and the drive to document -- but need to learn how to get started.
