docufest = crowdsourcing + curation

Ours is a crowd-sourced and expertly curated festival documentary service providing near-realtime video, and photography. We depend on our open call to our social network of those who are most fit to perform tasks to contribute with the most relevant and fresh ideas. They are professionals, they are specialists, they are our team.

This project is seeded with nearly one hundred “elementals” volunteering their time and services to present a fully-documented, comprehensive festival experience in a unique and interactive format. Special attention will be given to the overall culture of the festival, artwork and installations, participation of nonprofits, and the full experience of the festivarian.
