For me the most interesting part of Kohn's work is this type of "distributed documenting" proposed by him. I wonder how is it working so far, and what are the positive points he sees about it. cost reducing? faster? far-reaching? how is the footage quality in his opinion? if he had the budget to hire professional film makers would that be a better option?
And, speaking about our option of making a "do-it-yourself documentary kit" from our class footage, what does he think of a similar idea for his project? Would it be interesting to have a "distributed editing" process as well? Will the collected raw footage be available to the project participants somehow? Is he planning to release in the website footage that was not edited into the final piece?
