Testimonial

The scholarship offered by the "Documentary Voices" in 2008 has given me the opportunity to join the New York Film Academy in Abu Dhabi which resulted in obtaining my Master in Fine Art. That program has definitely taught me the different step a filmmaker has to assimilate in order to better understand the story telling process but much more as NYFA gives an in depth in-hand on all cameras format used today. Thank you again for that great opportunity which I am sure will result in realizing my films in the near future.

Documentary Voices was a great workshop to get started with the basic lessons of filmmaking. The workshop touched upon various aspects of filmmaking like: script writing, directing, producing, editing and other technical details. The workshops were conducted by faculties renowned in their fields; which was enhanced by their knowledge and real-life experiences. Our class consisted of a mixed group of filmmaking professionals which made the workshop fun, enriching and eventful. The experience of the faculties and the participants contributed to better understand the process and impact of film making. I thank Documentary Voices for granting me Scholarship to learn digital filmmaking at SAE. I now look forward to realise my passion of making films.
