Documentary filmmakers face an interesting dilemma; not only are their subjects 'volunteers' who can walk off the set anytime, they are often inexperienced performers. How much guidance and pressure is appropriate to get the most out of your subjects? Our guest filmmakers explore this often delicate issue.
