Mental Health 101: Care of Participants

Description

Join us for an essential discussion on prioritizing the mental health of documentary participants. As filmmakers, it's crucial to recognize participants’ symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and trauma throughout the filmmaking process. This panel will provide practical insights and guidelines on conducting interviews ethically, fostering a safe environment, and recognizing signs that someone requires support. Learn how to approach filmmaking with empathy, ensuring the well-being of both participants and your filmmaking team.
