My Television
Co-presented by Yamagata University, Tohoku University of Art & Design
What is the definition of a television documentary? How are they different to documentary films? From the 1960s to the 1970s when television underwent rapid growth, documentary makers grappled with the new potential that the medium possessed, different in nature to that of pre-existing mass media such as film, radio and newspapers. We present renowned programs produced by these pioneers in this journey back to television’s ardent youth.
