Documentary Filmmaking for Archaeologists
Peter Pepe and Joseph W. Zarzynski
December 2012, 216 pages
"Documentaries are now an essential part of an archaeologists' tool kit for
sharing the relevance of their work. Peter Pepe and Joseph W. Zarzynski have
done a tremendous service in writing this first ever guide to archaeological
documentary film making. This is a must have book for every archaeologist
who wants to reach a wide audience through the power of film."
~James P. Delgado, Host, National Geographic's "The Sea Hunters", 2001-2006
Documentary filmmaker Peter Pepe and historical archaeologist Joseph W.
Zarzynski provide a concise guide to filmmaking designed to help
archaeologists navigate the unfamiliar world of documentary film. They offer
a step-by-step description of the process of making a documentary,
everything from initial pitches to production companies to final cuts in the
editing. Using examples from their own award-winning documentaries, they
focus on the needs of the archaeologist: Where do you fit in the project?
What is expected of you? How can you help your documentarian partner? The
authors provide guidance on finding funding, establishing budgets, writing
scripts, interviewing, and numerous other tasks required to produce and
distribute a film. Whether you intend to sell a special to National
Geographic or churn out a brief clip to run at the local museum, read this
book before you start.
