A HELPING HAND
Award-winning filmmaker Col Spector helps you transform your documentary idea or rough-cut into a film that an audience want to see.

> seeing whether your idea could actually work as a film that an audience would pay to see or really care to watch

COL'S PHILOSOPHY
"My consultations start by ensuring that your idea really works as a film that an audience is likely to want to watch. If it doesn't then we will work together on that. We can then work on finding the most appropriate way to film and edit your film."
ABOUT COL'S METHOD
USING THE PRINCIPLES OF HIS 8-STEP PLAN, COL HAS TAUGHT DOCUMENTARY- MAKING TO AT LEAST 1,000 PEOPLE OVER THE LAST 7 YEARS AT THE NFTS, RAINDANCE, LONDON FILM SCHOOL & CENTRAL FILM SCHOOL
It means that Col can quickly interrogate a documentary's idea and, if the idea works, advise on the best ways to proceed in every aspect of production - including finding the most appropriate way to film, structure and edit your film. If the initial idea doesn't work he can work with you on discovering ways it could work.
