Canon Spotlight: CNN Original Series

Monday, January 20, 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
New Frontier Microcinema



CNN, the long-standing authority for television news, made a splash in 2013 with their unconventional, personal, and powerful original series. Join the filmmakers behind Morgan Spurlock’s award-winning Inside Man, Alex Gibney’s Death Row Stories, and Robert Redford and BCTV’s Chicagoland for a discussion about the lengths they go to capture their compelling stories and why they rely on Canon. The 90-minute spotlight and screening will offer a behind-the-scenes look into these CNN shows.


Open to all credential holders and the general public on a space available basis.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
