Theatrical documentary production is a skill that requires a lot of talent. Loosely defined, it's a film of a section of history that's re-enacted. To be skilfully pulled off, many differing facets must be combined in an efficient way with special attention being given to wardrobe, employment of extras and direction.
It's only been a hundred years since the genre has been recognized. This means that, while there's little in history for the film maker to learn from, there are also individuals of high skill who have provided films that supply much inspiration. Excellence is in high supply in this style.
The style doesn't yet have its own accepted or typical identity. Every producer using the genre thus sets out on his own unique quest and has much freedom of creativity and exploration, permitting plenty of originality. Because of this, it's an exciting venture for any film maker.
The home theatre market has further expanded it, making it possible for producers with low budgets to enter into the market. It's not necessary to move straight into big screen markets. However, expectations among audiences are high, so skill is a necessity.
Conservativeness is not an element usually included in this territory, with producers asking important and often antagonistic questions. This is a trend that's become increasingly popular and audiences are enjoying it. People today don't seem interested in anything that's not controversial.
The producer's aim is to speak a particular truth using audio and visual technology. Improvements in the digital age mean that the job is made far simpler than it's ever been. Improving standards mean, though, that the task at hand is more challenging than it's ever been.
The world has gotten smaller, meaning that audiences are now global. Theatrical documentary production is no longer aimed at a local but rather an international market. This makes the producer's responsibility ever more important.
