BEA2014

‘Defining the Documentary’ is an ongoing series exploring issues concerning the documentary. This year we will ask, "If everything's a documentary, is anything a documentary?" Websites, books, museums? Does a broader definition help us keep up with changes, or does it take away from some 'true' meaning? Following a brief introduction, we will break into small groups, each with its own moderator, and discuss a variety of scenarios – allowing all attendees to participate in the conversation.
Moderator: Evan Johnson, Normandale Community College
Panelists: Thomas Mascaro, Bowling Green State University
Dan Kimbrough, Misericordia University
Michael Ogden, Central Washington University
Christopher Shofner, University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point
