This is part one of our four-part educational series designed to help filmmakers strengthen key practices around impact strategy, audience engagement, and short-form storytelling. This educational series is the first component of A-Doc Activates, a new initiative focused on supporting documentary filmmakers in developing, distributing, and building impact for short-form storytelling that advances solidarity and power within AAPI communities.
