Register for The D-Word
After registering, you'll automatically have Enthusiast status. Documentary Enthusiasts can post in our Public Topics, where we hold moderated online conferences with guest experts in the field, and they can also access archived conferences. These week-long discussions cover the art, craft, business and social impact of documentary film. We also have a mentoring topic geared to beginning filmmakers with questions for our professional Members.
Following this automatic registration, documentary professionals can apply for Member status, which will give them full access to all private discussions in our Business, Creative, Social and Technical Topics.
You can only join The D-Word as an individual, not as a company or institution. Please note that you are required to register with your full name ("real world" name, not a pseudonym or initials); D-Worders like to know who they are dealing with!
Also, if you already registered for the D-Word, however long ago, PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER AGAIN as your original username is probably still valid. Instead, email us if you've forgotten your log-in details or are unable to receive your password (this could be due to an email address change).
Once again, just to be absolutely clear: incomplete entries, pseudonyms or company names will be rejected.
