In this first episode of season 2, I talk with Emmy award winning filmmaker Maro Chermayeff. As well as directing and producing many excellent documentary films - such as Half the Sky, Hostages, and Carrier - she is also the founding partner of the global production company Show of Force and Chair of the MFA in Social Documentary at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. I talk with Maro about what it takes to become a documentary filmmaker today, as well as her work as a director, producer, and educator. The MFA in Social Documentary at the School of Visual Arts: https://sva.edu/academics/graduate/mfa-social-documentary-filmShow of Force: https://showofforce.comThank you for listening.
