DOC Institute is an initiative of the Ontario chapter of the Documentary Organization of Canada<\/a>. After several vital Canadian programs for filmmakers closed their doors, DOC Ontario undertook extensive research and conducted interviews with documentary practitioners to determine what they needed to make their films, make connections and make it. The result of that research is the DOC Institute. With the aim of supporting doc-makers\u2019 creative journeys, the DOC Institute is a hub for established and emerging voices in the non-fiction world. Through its program streams\u2014the Masters Series, the Producers Exchange and DOC Connects<\/a>\u2014the DOC Institute offers essential professional development for documentary media artists of all levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
