Colloquium: "Friendship is Canceled: Ethos and Ethics of Documentary Films"

03/21/08

Contributed by Susanne Morgan

The final faculty colloquium of the academic year is on Thursday, April 3, 12:10-1:00 p.m. in the Cayuga Lake room of the Campus Center.

John Scott, assistant professor of television and radio, made a feature-length video documentary on his friend John Stiles called Scouts Are Canceled -– and found out one day after its debut at the Hot Docs Documentary Film Festival in Toronto that the friendship might be over.

This talk reveals and explores some of the ethical dilemmas common to the video documentary field.

All are welcome to attend the colloquium, held in the former Conference Room of the Campus Center. Coffee and treats are provided and you are welcome to bring your lunch.

Sponsored by the Center for Faculty Excellence.
