Call to all producers and directors who self-produce their films

Have your films been broadcast on a digital platform or will they be in the future? The Documentary Network wants to hear from you!


Please take a few minutes to complete our online survey questionnaire, «Documentaries on Digital Platforms».

This fall the Documentary Network will be taking a close look at the marketing of documentary films with the objective of publishing a report for documentary filmmakers. One aspect of the project involves presenting producers’ and directors’ experiences of distributing their films on digital platforms.

Whether you have distributed your films on Netflix or a lesser-known platform; on platforms dedicated to documentaries like Doc Alliance; on NFB.ca, Excentris Cinema online or a platform associated with a television broadcaster; or if you’ve put your films on Vimeo or or any other digital platform, we invite you to share your experience with us by completing our “Documentaries on Digital Platforms” questionnaire.

We invite all directors who want to see their films reflected in this project to encourage their producers to participate. Feel free to send this invitation to all your filmmaker colleagues!

We hope to hear from you. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
